Side Affects
Side Effects of a Nimue Chemical Peel Nimue Chemical Peels are advanced treatments designed to be safe and effective when performed by qualified professionals. However, as with any skin treatment, some temporary side effects may occur, including: Redness: Mild to moderate redness is common immediately after the peel, as the skin’s natural healing process is activated. Sensitivity: The treated area may feel more sensitive to touch, heat, or certain skincare products for a few days. Flaking or Peeling: Light flaking or peeling may occur as the skin sheds dead cells, revealing a fresh, renewed layer. Tightness: A temporary feeling of tightness in the skin is normal as it begins to heal and rejuvenate. Dryness: The skin may feel drier than usual as it adjusts post-treatment, requiring extra hydration. Sun Sensitivity: Increased sensitivity to the sun is possible; it’s essential to wear a high-SPF sunscreen to protect the skin. These side effects are typically mild and short-lived, with most subsiding within a few days. Your skin therapist will provide aftercare guidance and recommend appropriate products to soothe and protect your skin during the recovery process. If you have any concerns, it’s important to discuss them with your practitioner before undergoing the treatment.
Aftercare
Proper aftercare is essential to maximise the benefits of your Nimue Chemical Peel and ensure a smooth recovery. Here are the key steps to follow: Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your skin from the sun for at least one week post-treatment. Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and reapply throughout the day. Hydrate Your Skin: Use a recommended moisturiser to keep your skin hydrated and promote healing. Drink plenty of water to support overall skin health. Follow Your Prescribed Skincare Routine: Use the Nimue at-home products prescribed by your practitioner to continue the treatment’s benefits and maintain optimal results. Avoid using any exfoliating or active products (like retinoids or AHA/BHA) for at least 5-7 days unless advised otherwise. Avoid Heat and Sweating: Refrain from hot showers, steam rooms, saunas, or intense exercise for 24-48 hours to prevent irritation. Do Not Pick or Peel: Allow the skin to shed naturally if flaking occurs. Picking at the skin can cause irritation or scarring. Be Gentle with Your Skin: Avoid harsh scrubs, facial brushes, or anything abrasive. Use lukewarm water and a mild cleanser to clean your face. Skip Makeup for 24 Hours: Allow your skin time to heal by avoiding makeup immediately after the peel. If needed, use non-comedogenic products once your skin has settled. Monitor Your Skin: Some redness or tightness is normal, but if you experience excessive irritation or prolonged discomfort, contact your practitioner for advice. By following these aftercare steps, you’ll help your skin recover quickly and maintain the glowing, rejuvenated results of your Nimue Chemical Peel.
How long do the
results last for?
How Long Do Results Last After a Nimue Chemical Peel? The results from a Nimue Chemical Peel can last anywhere from a few weeks to several months, depending on your skin type, the severity of concerns being addressed, and how well you care for your skin post-treatment. Many clients notice an immediate improvement in skin texture, radiance, and smoothness, with ongoing improvements in tone, firmness, and elasticity over time. To maintain optimal results and prolong the effects of your peel, it's essential to continue following a recommended skincare routine and to incorporate sun protection. Regular treatments can help maintain and even enhance the results, particularly when combined with other advanced facial treatments. For ultimate results, a Nimue Chemical Peel is often combined with additional advanced facial treatments to create a truly unique and customised skincare prescription that addresses your specific skin needs. This tailored approach optimises your skin's health and delivers transformative, long-lasting results.
Who should avoid a Chemical Peel?
While Nimue Chemical Peels are generally safe and effective for most skin types, there are certain individuals who should avoid or delay this treatment: Pregnant or Breastfeeding Women: It's advised to avoid chemical peels during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to the potential for increased skin sensitivity and absorption of active ingredients. Active Skin Conditions: If you have active skin conditions like severe eczema, rosacea, or psoriasis in the treatment area, a chemical peel may cause irritation or worsen the condition - a more gentle SmartMicro Peel would be more suitable. Open Wounds or Broken Skin: If you have cuts, abrasions, or any form of broken skin on the face, it’s important to wait until your skin has healed before undergoing a peel. Recent Sunburn: If your skin is sunburned or irritated, it is best to wait until the skin has fully recovered to avoid additional sensitivity or irritation. Certain Medications: If you are using products that increase skin sensitivity, such as Accutane or certain retinoids, you may need to wait until these treatments are completed before getting a peel. Always consult with your practitioner about any current medications. Allergic Reactions: If you have a known allergy to glycolic acid or other ingredients in the peel, this treatment may not be suitable for you. Unrealistic Expectations: If you’re expecting drastic, instant results without maintaining proper aftercare or a full skincare routine, a chemical peel might not be the right solution. It’s important to have a thorough consultation with a qualified practitioner to determine whether a Nimue Chemical Peel is suitable for your skin type and needs. Your practitioner will assess your skin condition and medical history to ensure the peel is safe for you.
Do I need to prepare?
Preparing for a Nimue Chemical Peel While the Nimue Chemical Peel is a safe and effective treatment, proper preparation can help ensure optimal results and minimise potential side effects. Here are some steps to take before your treatment: Consultation: Schedule a consultation with a qualified practitioner who will assess your skin type, concerns, and medical history. This ensures the peel is appropriate for you and helps create a customised treatment plan. Avoid Sun Exposure: It's essential to avoid direct sun exposure for at least a week before your peel, as this can increase skin sensitivity and the risk of irritation. Always wear a high-SPF sunscreen. Stop Using Active Ingredients: For 5-7 days prior to the peel, discontinue the use of any products containing strong active ingredients such as retinoids, AHAs, or BHAs, as they can increase the risk of irritation. Hydrate Your Skin: Ensure your skin is well-moisturised in the days leading up to your treatment. This helps maintain your skin’s natural barrier and can reduce sensitivity during the peel. Avoid Waxing or Shaving: Do not wax or shave the treatment area at least 48 hours before the peel, as this may increase skin irritation. Limit Exfoliation: Avoid using harsh scrubs or mechanical exfoliants for about a week prior to the treatment to prevent over-exfoliation and skin sensitivity. Be Honest About Medications: Inform your practitioner of any medications or skincare treatments you are currently using, especially those that could make your skin more sensitive, like Accutane or certain antibiotics. Avoid Alcohol: Try to avoid consuming alcohol the day before your peel, as it can increase skin sensitivity and make the skin more prone to irritation. By following these simple preparation steps, you can help ensure a smoother experience and achieve the best possible results from your Nimue Chemical Peel.
