Medical skin peels are a highly effective, non-invasive treatment designed to improve skin texture, tone, and overall clarity. Using carefully selected medical-grade formulations, these treatments work by gently exfoliating the outer layers of the skin, stimulating renewal and revealing fresher, healthier-looking skin beneath.
At Kent Skin and Laser Clinic, we offer a range of clinically proven peel systems, including Enerpeel®, NeoStrata®, and SkinCeuticals® peels, all tailored to your individual skin type and concerns to ensure safe, controlled, and natural-looking results.
What can skin peels treat?
Medical skin peels can help improve a wide range of common skin concerns, including:
- Dull or uneven skin tone
- Congestion and acne breakouts
- Pigmentation and sun damage
- Enlarged pores
- Fine lines and early signs of ageing
Benefits of treatment
Following a course of peels, many patients notice:
- Smoother, brighter skin
- Reduced congestion and fewer breakouts
- Improved pigmentation and sun damage
- Refined pores
- Softer fine lines and improved skin texture
- Enhanced overall radiance
How do they work?
Medical peels use active ingredients to gently exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells from the surface while helping to reduce congestion, unclog pores, and improve active acne breakouts. By encouraging cell renewal, they support clearer skin, improve overall skin function, and can help refine texture and the appearance of mild acne scarring and superficial wrinkles over time.
Different peel types can be tailored to target specific concerns, ranging from superficial refreshment to deeper skin rejuvenation.
Treatments are always carefully tailored to ensure the skin is treated safely and progressively, helping to calm inflammation, reduce breakouts, and achieve visible results without unnecessary irritation.
What can I expect?
Treatments are generally well tolerated, with a mild tingling or warm sensation during application. Depending on the type of peel used, you may experience light flaking or dryness in the days following treatment.
For best results, a course of treatments is usually recommended, alongside a personalised home skincare routine to support and maintain improvements.

- Microneedling
- Microdermabrasion
- Prescriptive facials
