Who may be suitable

Professional exfoliation selected for the individual skin
The word peel covers very different treatments
Chemical peels vary in ingredients, strength and depth. A superficial cosmetic peel is not the same as a medium or deep medical peel, and the product used must remain within the practitioner’s qualifications, insurance and clinic protocol.
Arneta is certified in chemical peels and carries out treatment only after assessing suitability. The purpose is controlled exfoliation, not the strongest possible reaction.
Peels may support the appearance of dullness, congestion, superficial marks, fine lines and rough texture. They cannot remove deep scars, erase pigmentation or reverse ageing.
Suitability and timing
Who may be suitable for a chemical peel?
Suitable clients have an intact barrier and no active infection or inflammatory flare. Pregnancy, prescription skincare, recent procedures, sun exposure and a tendency to pigment after irritation must be discussed.
When treatment may need to wait
Peels may be unsuitable with active infection, open skin, cold sores, dermatitis flare, sunburn, recent waxing, certain medicines, recent isotretinoin, impaired healing, pregnancy depending on ingredients, or a history of significant pigment reaction. New or changing lesions must be medically assessed.
Results without overstatement
A peel should be effective without being reckless
A peel may improve the appearance of the surface, but it cannot guarantee scar removal, permanently erase pigmentation or produce the same degree of flaking in every client.
What treatment may support
- A brighter and smoother looking complexion
- Improvement in selected surface concerns
- A professional protocol with controlled timing
- Personalised preparation and aftercare
What remains outside its promise
- Redness, dryness, flaking and sensitivity can occur
- Pigment change, burns, infection and scarring are possible risks
- A peel cannot remove deep scars or all pigmentation
- Not every skin type or condition is suitable for the same peel

The clinic standard
Professional peels supported by a doctor led clinic standard
It’s Me & You Clinic is doctor led, so chemical peel consultations emphasise suitability, informed expectations and a clear plan for aftercare. Arneta performs peels within her certification and disclosed qualifications.
A stronger peel is not automatically a better peel. The correct decision may be a lighter treatment, more preparation, a different facial or postponement until the skin is stable.
What happens after the appointment
What to expect after a peel
The skin may look brighter and feel smoother after recovery. Some peels produce little visible flaking, while others cause dryness or peeling. Visible peeling is not the only measure of effectiveness.
Further treatment is considered after reviewing the response. A stronger peel is not automatically better, particularly for sensitive skin or skin prone to pigmentation.

Frequently asked questions
Chemical peel questions about depth, peeling and downtime
What is a chemical peel?
It is a cosmetic procedure in which a chemical solution is applied to exfoliate the skin at a selected depth.
Will my face visibly peel?
Not always. The amount of flaking depends on the product, strength and individual response. Visible peeling is not required for a treatment to have an effect.
Which peel will Arneta use?
The exact peel is selected after consultation according to your skin, concern, products and treatment history.
Can a chemical peel remove acne scars?
A superficial peel may improve colour and surface texture but will not remove deep acne scars. Another procedure may be more appropriate.
Can peels help pigmentation?
They may improve selected superficial pigmentation, but irritation can worsen pigment in some skin. Careful assessment and sun protection are essential.
Is a chemical peel painful?
Sensation varies and may include tingling, warmth or stinging. Tell Arneta immediately if discomfort becomes intense.
How much downtime should I expect?
Redness, dryness and flaking vary according to the peel and your skin. The expected recovery is explained before treatment.
Can I use retinol afterwards?
Do not restart retinol or acids until advised. Introducing them too soon can increase irritation.
How often can I have a peel?
Spacing depends on the product, strength and skin response. There is no universal schedule.
Where can I book a chemical peel in Kingston?
Arneta offers professional chemical peels at It’s Me & You Clinic in Kingston upon Thames for suitable clients from Surrey and South West London.
