Skin Chemical Peeling Treatment
Reveal a Brighter, Smoother, More Even Complexion
At Toast Tanning, our chemical peel treatments are designed to safely exfoliate and resurface your skin, revealing a clearer, more radiant appearance. By applying a carefully formulated solution to the skin, chemical peels help to remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and encourage healthy regeneration – making them a powerful treatment for a variety of concerns.
Whether you’re struggling with acne, pigmentation, fine lines, or dull, uneven texture, our skin peels offer a tailored solution with visible results and minimal downtime.
What Is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a skincare treatment that uses naturally-derived or medical-grade acids (such as glycolic, salicylic, lactic, or mandelic acid) to exfoliate the skin at different depths. This controlled process encourages the skin to shed damaged cells and stimulates new, healthier skin growth.
At Toast Tanning, we offer customised peels based on your skin type and concerns – from gentle, hydrating peels for sensitive skin to deeper peels that target pigmentation, acne scars, and signs of ageing.
Brightens Dull, Tired Skin
Removes dead skin build-up and boosts natural radiance.
Fades Pigmentation & Dark Spots
Improves uneven tone caused by sun damage or scarring.
Minimises Fine Lines
Stimulates collagen and cell renewal for smoother, firmer skin.
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING TREATMENT?
Your treatment will begin with a full consultation to assess your skin and select the most suitable peel. After cleansing, the peel solution is applied for a few minutes, then neutralised and followed by soothing aftercare products. You may experience mild tingling during the treatment and light flaking or redness over the next few days – this is normal and part of the skin renewal process.
Results are often visible after just one treatment, though a course of peels is usually recommended for long-term improvements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Curious about microneedling? We’ve answered some of the most common questions to help you feel informed and confident before your treatment. If you’re still unsure, feel free to get in touch — we’re happy to help.
What is a chemical peel and how does it work?
A chemical peel is a professional skincare treatment that uses a mild acid solution to exfoliate the top layers of the skin. This controlled process removes dead skin cells and stimulates new cell growth, revealing fresher, clearer skin underneath. The treatment also encourages collagen production, helping to smooth and refine the skin over time.
What skin concerns can a chemical peel help with?
Chemical peels are highly effective for a wide range of skin issues. They can help with:
Acne and acne scarring
Uneven skin tone or pigmentation
Fine lines and early signs of ageing
Enlarged or congested pores
Dull, rough, or textured skin
We tailor each peel to your skin’s specific needs for the best results.
Are chemical peels safe?
Yes, when performed by a trained professional, chemical peels are safe and effective. At Toast Tanning & Beauty, we use trusted, high-quality formulations and ensure your treatment is fully customised to your skin type and condition. We’ll also carry out a consultation before your first treatment.
Will my skin peel afterwards?
Some clients experience light flaking or dryness a few days after treatment, especially with stronger peels. This is a normal part of the skin renewal process. Any visible peeling is usually mild and temporary. We’ll guide you on how to care for your skin post-treatment.
Does it hurt?
You may feel a mild tingling or warming sensation during the treatment, but it shouldn’t be painful. Most clients describe it as a slight prickling or tightness that fades quickly.
How many treatments will I need?
This depends on your skin goals. Many people see improvements after just one session, but for more noticeable or long-lasting results—especially for issues like acne, pigmentation, or scarring—a course of 3–6 treatments spaced a few weeks apart is often recommended.
Is there any downtime?
Downtime is minimal for most chemical peels. You might experience slight redness or sensitivity immediately after your session, but this usually settles within a day or two. We’ll advise you on aftercare to keep your skin calm and hydrated while it heals.
Can I wear makeup after a peel?
It’s best to avoid wearing makeup for at least 24 hours after your peel to allow your skin time to breathe and recover. Once your skin settles, you can return to your usual makeup routine.
