KOREAN MELASMA PEEL
This advanced cold peel treatment is specifically designed to target stubborn and reactive hyperpigmentation, such as melasma. Unlike traditional chemical peels, the cold peel generates minimal heat and is less intensive, making it suitable for sensitive or reactive skin types and safer for melasma.
The inclusion of 4-Butylresorcinol enhances cell turnover while promoting collagen synthesis, resulting in a smoother and more refined skin texture. This natural and safe alternative to hydroquinone has been clinically proven to be more effective in reducing melasma and hyperpigmentation. By addressing the root cause of melanin production, it offers targeted treatment for individuals prone to or suffering from post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
Additionally, Tocopherol, a powerful antioxidant, neutralizes free radicals, reduces dark spots, and improves skin luminosity. Glutathione, a clinically proven melanin inhibitor, actively lightens pigmentation and restores an even complexion.
A course of treatments is recommended — book three to save £90 or four to save £120, and receive a free skincare product to support results worth £70!
