Epione Chemical Peels - Anti-Ageing and Acne Treatments

This amazing peel system is  formulated to improve the appearance and texture of the skin by increasing cell turnover. This  retexturizes and smooths  the skin and so improves skin ageing, hyperpigmentation, acne and rosacea.

Traditional peels left patients looking "sunburnt" for days or weeks after a treatment. The Epionce peels have minimal downtime; minor redness/flaking 2-4 days post-peel only. These are powerful yet gentle, leading to an immediate improvement in skin clarity and radiance and reduced dullness and sallowness.

These can be used all over the body: Face, neck, décolleté, back, arms & hands. All skin types can be treated including sensitive skin.

Ideally the peels can be repeated  in a series of 2-6 peels spaced 3-4 weeks apart for maximum effect. 

Key ingredients include Malic Acid - Potent Alpha Hydroxy Acid that encourages cell turnover, hydration and reduces problem bacteria; Salicylic Acid - Anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties improve skin clarity and texture by cleansing pores; lipophilic properties boost the penetration of malic acid for optimum cell turnover; Willow Bark Extract - Anti-bacterial and comedolytic properties help cleanse pores and Onion Bulb Extract - Anti-inflammatory properties calm and soothe the skin.

Who could benefit from chemical peels?

Anyone with issues ranging form sallow, congested skin to those with acne, rosacea and marked signs of ageing will all notice an improvement in skin texture and laxity with the use of these gentle peels.

Common Q&A about Epionce peels

Q: How will the peel lighten my hyperpigmentation?

A: The Sal-e part of the peel

works similarly to Retin-A, but with much less

irritation to promote cell turnover. The Mal-e part

of the peel also enhances cell turnover and is

known to work well on hyperpigmentation. It is

also better for sensitive skin types who may not be

able to tolerate other hyperpigmentation peels.

Because of the exfoliation, you will need to wear

sunscreen such as Ultra Shield Lotion SPF 50 found

in the Skin Barrier Repair Kit. Using the MelanoLyte

Skin Brightening System along with the peel series

will enhance skin lightening results even more.

Q: Will my skin peel? I have highly sensitive skin? Do you have an alternative to the medical peel? 

A: You may experience some

flaking and peeling in the days after the peel, but

down time is very minimal–especially if using

Epionce products at home. Depending on the type

of peel or number of peel layers performed that

day, you should be able to wear sunscreen and mineral makeup the same day or immediately

afterwards. Your skin will look its best about one to

two weeks after the peel.

Q: I have highly sensitive skin? Do you have an alternative to the medical peel? 

A: The Epionce Lite Peel: Refresh

is typically well tolerated by very sensitive skin types

who just cannot take the medical-strength Epionce

Peel System. We will start you off with a series of 3-6

peels, each spaced 2 weeks apart, and gradually

build the time the peel is left on the skin. You will

have no to very minimal reaction and your skin will

see the benefit of regular, gentle cell turnover.

Q: When I’ve had peels in the past, I’ve noticed

stinging and discomfort when I use skin care

products. What do I do?

A: Dr Tara will send you home with an

Epionce Skin Barrier Repair Kit to use for 72 hours

after your peel.

Epionce peels are available with Dr Tara at all our clinic locations in Bournemouth (Dorset), Alresford (Hampshire) and Westbury (Wiltshire).
