Skin Needling FAQs

All chemical peel appointments have a thorough consultation before the treatment begins to ensure we can create a targeted and customised treatment plan specific for you and your skin goals.

  • A chemical peel is a professional treatment designed to deeply exfoliate the skin, encourage cellular turnover, and target concerns like pigmentation, texture, fine lines, and breakouts.
    At Vissi Aesthetics, we use The Skincare Company’s professional-grade peels, formulated with potent active ingredients to deliver effective, visible results with minimal downtime.

  • Most clients experience a tingling, warming, or light prickling sensation during the peel application, but it is generally very tolerable.
    Discomfort is mild and temporary, lasting only a few minutes during the treatment itself I use a small fan to keep your face cool during the treatment.

  • A peel appointment typically takes 30–45 minutes, depending on the specific peel and your skin needs.
    The treatment includes a full cleanse, peel application, neutralisation, and finishing products to soothe and protect the skin.

  • We recommend a course of 3–6 chemical peels, spaced 2 weeks apart, for best results.
    Your treatment plan will be tailored to your skin concerns, and we’ll guide you on the ideal number of sessions during your consultation.

  • Yes — preparing your skin is an important step to maximise your results and minimise sensitivity.

  • Mild redness, tightness, or flaking can occur in the days following a peel.
    Most clients experience very manageable downtime and can return to normal activities the same day.
