Chemical Peels Brisbane

At Dr Scott Horsburgh’s Brisbane clinic, chemical peels are offered as an option to address certain skin concerns. These treatments involve applying a solution to the skin to help remove surface layers through exfoliation. The method can be adjusted to suit different skin types and the goals discussed during your consultation.

What Are Chemical Peels?

A chemical peel uses a solution applied to the skin’s surface to help remove the outer layers. This may address changes in skin tone and texture that can occur due to ageing, sun exposure, or other environmental factors. The level and depth of the peel are decided after assessing your skin and discussing your treatment goals during the consultation.

Book a Consultation

If you are considering chemical peels, you can book a consultation with Dr Scott Horsburgh. This appointment gives you the opportunity to discuss your concerns, possible treatment options, and important considerations.

Treatment Approach

Dr Scott Horsburgh will assess your skin to determine the most suitable method. Patients are provided with options to help support comfort during the procedure. The treatment time can vary depending on factors such as peel strength, the size of the area treated, and individual skin response.

Concerns That May Be Addressed

Chemical peels may be considered for:

  • Changes in skin tone
  • Changes in skin texture

What to Expect Before Treatment

Before your appointment, you may be advised to limit sun exposure. You may also be asked to avoid tanning products and stop using certain skincare ingredients for a certain period. These steps can help prepare the skin for the treatment.

What to Expect After Treatment

After a chemical peel, the skin may appear red or swollen. Some peeling or flaking may occur as the outer layers shed. How long these changes last can vary depending on the type of peel, your skin type, and how your skin responds to treatment. Care instructions will be provided to support healing.

Risks and Complications

Risks and complications associated with chemical peels may include:

  • Redness, swelling, or tenderness
  • Temporary skin dryness or flaking
  • Changes in skin tone
  • Sensitivity to sunlight
  • Scarring
  • Infection

These will be discussed with you during your consultation.
