Common questions:
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable substances used to fill in wrinkles, add volume, and contour the face. They're typically made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, or other biocompatible materials.
How long do they last?
The duration varies depending on factors like the type of filler used, the area treated, and individual metabolism. Generally, hyaluronic acid fillers last around 6 to 18 months, while others may last longer. Touch-up treatments are usually required to maintain results.
Are they safe?
When performed by a qualified and experienced practitioner, dermal filler treatments are generally safe. However, like any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects, such as bruising, swelling, infection, or allergic reactions. It's crucial to discuss any concerns before undergoing treatment.
Is there downtime after getting dermal fillers?
Most people can resume their normal activities immediately after treatment, but some may experience mild swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection sites. These typically resolve within a few days.
Are they painful?
Discomfort during the procedure is usually minimal, as most fillers contain a numbing agent like lidocaine. Some people may experience mild discomfort or temporary bruising afterward. Topical numbing creams or ice packs can be used to minimise it.
Who is a good candidate?
Good candidates for dermal fillers are generally in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the results. They should also have specific concerns that can be addressed with fillers, such as wrinkles, volume loss, or asymmetry.

Common Questions
What is a chemical peel?
A chemical peel is a treatment that uses a carefully selected solution to gently exfoliate the skin, removing the top layers of dead skin cells. This stimulates new skin cell turnover, revealing fresher, smoother, and clearer skin underneath.
What skin concerns can chemical peels treat?
Chemical peels are effective for improving:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Uneven skin tone or pigmentation (including sun damage and age spots)
- Acne and post-acne scarring
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Rough or uneven texture
What types of chemical peels do you offer?
I offer two trusted options:
- SkinMed Peels: a range of lighter to medium-strength peels that can be tailored to different skin types and concerns, suitable for progressive improvements with little downtime.
- The Perfect Peel: a stronger, medical-grade peel that penetrates more deeply to target stubborn pigmentation, deeper wrinkles, and more advanced skin concerns.
How many sessions will I need?
This varies depending on your goals which will be discussed in the initial consultation, as some clients see noticeable results after a single peel, while others benefit from a course of treatments for longer-lasting improvements. Stronger peels, like The Perfect Peel, may deliver more dramatic results in fewer sessions.
When will I see results?
You may notice fresher, brighter skin within a few days, but the full results appear after your skin has finished peeling and renewing itself. With lighter peels, results are gradual but build with each session however with The Perfect Peel, results are more dramatic and visible after the peeling process is complete (usually within 7–10 days).
Is there downtime?
This depends on the strength of the peel.
Light to medium peels may cause mild redness, dryness, or flaking for a few days whereas stronger peels, such as The Perfect Peel, involve more visible peeling that lasts about a week, this is a completely normal and important part of the process!
Whats the aftercare like?
- Don’t pick or peel your skin: Let any flaking or peeling happen naturally to avoid scarring or uneven results.
- Moisturise regularly: Use a gentle, soothing moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated.
- Sun protection is essential: Avoid direct sun exposure and apply a high-SPF sunscreen daily.
- Avoid harsh products: Skip retinoids, exfoliants, or strong active ingredients for at least a week, or until your skin has fully healed.
Keep it gentle!
Are chemical peels safe?
Yes, when carried out by a trained practitioner and when the right peel is chosen for your skin type. Temporary side effects can include redness, flaking, sensitivity, or peeling, but these are all part of the skin’s renewal process.
Can chemical peels be combined with other treatments?
Yes, peels can complement treatments such as dermal-needling, anti-wrinkle injections, or skin boosters. However, they are usually performed in separate sessions to allow the skin to recover properly between treatments.
