Dermalogica Facials
your skin. your treatment. your time.
Face Mapping
Face Mapping is the best way to analyse your skin before the actual treatments getting started. It gives our therapist a detail map of your face and tells us which kind of facial treatment your skin need, not just what you want. Once the primary face mapping is done then our expert would be with you for a brief consultation session, record the discussions and then recommend your treatments to the therapist. The Esthetician could also prescribe you products your skin required and also length of treatments.
The results you are going to see with a Dermalogica skin treatment are unlike anything else in the industry because we exfoliate the skin, we double cleanse the skin, we do extractions, tailor-made customised massage and masque technique. With the products that are unequaled, you're going to see your skin glowing, more luminous, hydrated, quite honestly it's going to be in its optimum condition, the best skin you've ever had.
Experience the power of BioActive Peel, a powerful new skin resurfacing system from the skin health experts at Dermalogica and The International Dermal Institute. It helps reduce acne, pigmentation and signs of premature ageing to reveal smoother, brighter and softer skin.

Chemical Peel
Custom peels, every time
Cell turnover slows dramatically as we age, from approximately 20 days in younger and middleaged adults, up to over 30 days in older adults. As this happens, it affects the skin’s appearance and texture in a variety of ways. From fine lines and wrinkles to acne and hyperpigmentation, chemical peels are one of the most effective ways to address these changes. But they’re not a one-size-fits-all treatment: for optimal results, a peel should be strong enough to accelerate cell turnover but not so powerful as to induce severe skin inflammation.
Since everyone’s skin is different, the best solution is to create completely customised peels — which is where the inspiration for the all-new Pro Power Peel collection came from. Our strongest and fastest peel yet, it enables us to professionally tailor each treatment to your skin concerns, helping you achieve your healthiest-looking skin ever.
Chemical peels are one of the most effective ways to address a wide range of skin concerns. But there’s no “one size fits all” peel: each peel should be tailor-made for your skin. Enter Pro Power Peel. Comprehensive and completely customisable, it puts the power to create tailor-made peels in your therapist's hands. Formulated with maximum-strength ingredients and backed by science and education from the International Dermal Institute, Pro Power Peel lets delivered a custom peel, every time.
Chemical peels are an excellent treatment choice for a wide range of skin concerns, from acne and hyperpigmentation to advanced signs of ageing. Despite their varying uses, most peels work the same way: they remove the skin’s outermost layers to stimulate cell renewal and cell turnover, improving skin’s texture and appearance.
Introducing the pro power peel
When it comes to chemical peels, we’ve always had a unique perspective. Promoting overall skin health is one of Dermalogica’s core values. We also believe that regular resurfacing is crucial to accelerate cell turnover and renewal rates – so we opt for peels that are more frequent and less invasive rather than those that push the skin to the point of severe inflammation and possible scarring.

pre treatment guidelines
Before beginning the Pro Power Peel, we assess your skin health and complete a thorough consultation. All clients must complete and sign the Dermalogica® Consultation Card. This treatment procedure cannot be safely performed until this has been completed.
We never perform Pro Power Peel on a client who:
Has received a resurfacing skin procedure such as laser, light therapy, microdermabrasion or chemical peel within the past two weeks
Has received Botox or other injectables within the past week
Has used Retin-A within the past 48 hours
Has used Isotretinoin (Accutane) in the past six months
Has waxed within the past 72 hours
Has a contagious skin disease or infection such as an active cold sore
Is pregnant or lactating
Pro Power Peel is designed to give you the flexibility to create truly custom, advanced treatments. Different peels within the collection are either mixed or layered to effectively treat a wide range of skin conditions.
what to expect after a pro power peel
Your skin may appear red and flushed following the treatment, and may be more sensitive depending on your skin condition and at-home care regimen. Side effects include, but are not limited to, dryness, stinging, itching, irritation, redness, swelling, tightness, peeling and scabbing. By the second day, skin may peel or look darker. On the third day, peeling may begin around the nose and mouth, followed by the cheeks, forehead, jawline and neck.
You can manage any post-treatment conditions by increasing your hydration and moisturisation regimen until the skin no longer shows signs of extreme dryness and sensitivity. We might prescribe the Pro Power Peel Post-Procedure Kit to be used for 2-3 days following treatment, and review the care instructions with you.
what makes a peel effective?
what makes a peel effective?
The efficacy of a chemical peel depends on a number of factors, from your skin condition to the skin therapist’s application method. Taking each of these factors into consideration during the treatment process will help to optimise the results. Generally speaking, healthy skin is less likely to experience adverse reactions to a chemical peel. Cracked or dehydrated skin allows chemical peel agents to penetrate further, which can intensify stinging and burning.
professional peels vs. at-home peels
Peels designed to be applied by licensed professional skin therapists – like Pro Power Peel – tend to be more concentrated, at a very low pH, and customisable to deliver more dramatic results. These formulas are usually not available to clients for self-application.
Peels designed to be used by clients at home tend to be lighter in nature. They are ideal for quick, easy removal of dulling surface cells, as well as building the skin's tolerance for stronger professional peels and maintaining results in between professional treatments.
efficacy of a peel
skin health
Generally speaking, healthy skin is less likely to experience adverse reactions to a chemical peel. Cracked or dehydrated skin allows chemical peel agents to penetrate further, which can intensify stinging and burning.
skin priming
Many clients can benefit from preliminary treatments or products that “prime” the skin, helping to prepare it for the high activity of a chemical peel – particularly if you are new to peels. Priming with at-home peels or other exfoliating agents helps to acclimate skin and ensure that you receives the best possible result from your peel.
skin prep
Just before the peel, it’s important to “prep” the skin. We follow the Pro Power Peel step-by-step instructions closely to ensure that the your skin is thoroughly double cleansed and degreased; this helps the chemical peel penetrate your skin evenly and effectively.
peeling agent(s), solution pH and concentration
Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) and Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) both have different molecular sizes, and therefore penetrate skin to different degrees. Because of this, each acid lends itself to the treatment of different skin concerns. Peel pH and concentration play a role, too; for AHAs and BHAs, the pH of the solution is just as important as the concentration of the acid. Peeling agents with a low pH are more acidic and better able to target concerns like pigmentation and wrinkles.
application method
The way a peel is applied can play a role in penetration depth. Massaging can increase product absorption – but because it also increases blood circulation, it can lead to higher chances of erythema, sensitivity or inflammation. Application tools can determine absorption, too: gauze allows more solution to be applied to the skin than a brush. Cotton swabs may be preferable when more control needed to spot-treat or target precise areas.
chemical peeling agents
keratolytic agents (AHAs and BHAs)
Keratolytic agents break apart the snap-like bonds (corneodesmosomes) that hold dead skin cells (corneocytes) together, allowing them to shed more easily and therefore improving the skin’s texture and overall appearance.
Widely considered the most versatile group of peeling agents, AHAs (including Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid, Mandelic Acid and Malic Acid) are water-soluble and can be used at different concentrations for different effects on the skin. Clients can use them at low concentrations on a daily basis to slowly exfoliate over time; used in higher concentrations they exfoliate the epidermis more quickly, breaking corneodesmosomes at the cellular level.
BHAs, like Salicylic Acid, are oil-soluble, making them an excellent treatment choice for oily and acne-prone skin. They can actually penetrate the skin through the follicles and sebaceous glands while helping to dissolve follicular impactions.
keratocoagulant agents
Keratocoagulant agents contribute to exfoliation by coagulating the skin’s proteins, contributing to enhanced cell renewal rates and cell turnover. In this reaction, the protein is denatured, similar to an egg white turning white as it cooks. This can produce the skin-whitening effect known as “frosting”, particularly in areas of breakout or dehydration.
pH and acidity
In order for AHAs and BHAs to effectively exfoliate, they must be formulated at a low pH; they’re most effective at a pH of 1.0-2.5. The skin’s natural pH is mildly acidic, ranging from 4.5-5.5; exposing it to more acidic conditions contributes to AHAs’ and BHAs’ exfoliating efficacy. The change in pH causes a superficial shock to the cells, contributing to desquamation and increased cell renewal.
post-procedure care instructions
1
Immediately following treatment, you should apply a broad spectrum physical sunscreen (minimum SPF30), such as Super Sensitive Shield SPF30 or SkinPerfect Primer SPF30. It is advised to avoid direct sun exposure for 2-3 weeks to prevent hyperpigmentation, and to wear a wide-brim hat if you must be in the sun.
2
You should avoid strenuous exercise on the day of treatment, along with prolonged exposure to heat sources like dry saunas or steam rooms; these activities increase blood circulation to the face, which can lead to discomfort, redness, swelling or other side effects.
3
On the night of treatment, you should rinse your face with cool water and cleanse with UltraCalming™ Cleanser, then moisturise with Barrier Defense Booster and Calm Water Gel (all included in the Pro Power Peel Post-Procedure Kit).
4
You are advised to increase your fluid intake for the next 2-3 days.
5
You will likely begin peeling within 2-3 days. This is normal; you should not pick at loose skin, as this may cause discoloration.
6
You should avoid any type of exfoliating product until directed otherwise by your Professional Skin Therapist at Vedic BeautySpa.
7
Continue to use the products included in the Pro Power Peel Post-Procedure Kit for the duration of the peeling process. Moisturise throughout the day to maintain hydration and decrease the appearance of flaking.
Once peeling and redness have subsided, you may resume your regular Dermalogica daily routine.
FAQs
-
Dermalogica deliberately avoid using alcohol in most of their formulas to avoid stripping lipids from the skin. However, this is actually beneficial in the context of One-Step Prep. Topically applied alcohol prepares the skin for the peel, degreasing it and facilitating deeper penetration for greater peel efficacy.
-
Whitening of skin (“frosting”) can occur with the Pro Power Peel. In areas of frosting, you should expect peeling. We recommend keeping frosted areas moisturised with a prescribed Dermalogica Moisturiser for 3-4 days.
-
Absolutely not! Depending on the skin’s resistance and treatment frequency, you may experience a delay in peeling – or experience no peeling or flaking. For a more accurate assessment of the treatment’s success, it is advised to feel the texture of your skin; if it feels smoother, the treatment is working. The absence of peeling could also indicate that your skin may be able to tolerate additional peel layers during the treatment.
-
No. It can take a week or longer to see changes in your skin! There may be more colour on hyperpigmented areas for the first few days after treatment, as pigmented cells rise to the surface and slough off while new skin cells emerge at the basal cell layer. Please contact your therapist if you experiences extreme darkening or lightening.
-
Sunburns and chemical peels may produce similar reactions, but they have very different effects on the skin. A chemical peel uses a variety of caustic chemicals to selectively disrupt layers of skin and encourage the regeneration of healthy new skin. A sunburn is an uncontrolled wound caused by Ultraviolet Radiation (UVR).
-
Many of you can benefit from using at-home peels – like Dermalogica’s Rapid Reveal Peel – in between professional resurfacing treatments to help maintain your results. You should wait at least two weeks after your Pro Power Peel before beginning treatment with Rapid Reveal Peel.
-
We recommend using dampened cotton rounds if you’d like to protect your eyes. For other sensitive areas, use Barrier Repair or Colloidal Masque Base, taking care not to swipe over the Pro Power Peel product.
-
It’s best to wait as long as possible on the day of treatment to apply make-up – but sometimes you might want to apply it right away. We suggest you should wait a minimum of 20 minutes to 24 hours after treatment to give the skin a chance to calm down and reduce the possibility of irritation.
-
If the contraindication will clear within a few weeks, we would reschedule you. If the contraindication will remain longer, we would offer an alternative treatment. For more information on contraindications, please contact your therapist.
-
If you have received regular professional resurfacing treatments, you can be performed a peel – but you will get it conservatively to see how the skin reacts. If you have never received a skin treatment and do not exfoliate at home, we suggest beginning with a single layer of UltraBright Peel and building up gradually.
-
We are sensitive to our clients’ needs, and always put safety first. Before we begin performing Pro Power Peel treatments, we review our training manual and our Pro Power Peel and Treatment Essentials: Sensitive class materials thoroughly. The more we know prior to treating our client, the better we can manage her expectations and quickly address adverse reactions or complaints.
Before beginning the Pro Power Peel, we assess our client’s skin health and complete a thorough consultation. All clients must complete and sign the Dermalogica® Consultation Card. This treatment procedure cannot be safely performed until this has been completed.
-
Our Pro Power Peel formulas are designed to be used without electrical modalities. However, we may choose to incorporate modalities into other treatment modules depending on your skin health and tolerance.
Keep in mind that any electrical modality used to enhance resurfacing (such as wet/dry microdermabrasion) will affect the penetration depth of the Pro Power Peel. Consult your therapist for more information on this.
-
We recommend that extractions not be performed on the same day as the Pro Power Peel. Extractions may increase the chance of skin irritation, which could result in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or scarring due to the delicateness of the skin tissue. If you would benefit from extractions, we might consider scheduling a followup ProSkin 30 treatment featuring the Extraction module.
