Chemical Peels frequently asked questions

 Do they hurt?

No. At Ohh! our BioRePeel is designed to make the skin react, a tingling/nippy sensation is the most common experience during treatment. BioRePeel the active stage is a maximum of 5 mins with the first 1-2 mins being the initial tingle/nippy sensation.

How often can I have a chemical peel?

Dependant on your skin type, and how your skin reacts post peel, as a rough guide at Ohh! we say every 4 weeks. However, could be as often as 7-10 days or fortnightly in an initial treatment course for those with problems that we want to address such as hyperpigmentation, age spots, fine lines & wrinkles, acne scaring or acne prone skins.

Are there different peels to choose from?

Yes, at Ohh!  we now offer only our revolutionary no downtime BioRePeel which is suitable for a huge variety of different skin concerns.

I would like a peel for an event how long should I wait in between?

At Ohh! we suggest a approx 2 weeks before an event.

There can be some light shedding/peeling approx day 4 or 5 following the peel - but nothing that would put your social plans on hold.

If I did not get any peeling after my treatment, does this mean it did not work?

No, some skins are more reactive than others. If you do not see any peeling post treatment, do not worry, this does not mean the treatment has not worked. Some skins are naturally more reactive to invasive treatments.
