Herbal Aktiv Peel

B Peel is the most gentle of the peels. Great for sensitive skin. 

​

Phyto Peel is the middle strength of the peels and greatly speeds up the skin renewal period. Skin flaking may occur the day after the peel if the peel was done with the intention of shedding old skin. Great for hyperpigmentation. 

​

5-Day Aktiv Peel is the strongest of the herbal aktiv peels and involves am intensive 5-day process. It has the effect of three phyto peels into one peel. Rejuvenates skin making it look more fresh, glowy and bright. Great for hyperpigmentation and aging skin. 

After the treatment your skin will be mildly tingly over the next day. During the treatment, it will feel a bit rough or abrasive due to the texture of the herbs. The skin is not being damaged but it is creating microchannels for the herbs to be absorbed by the skin. The tingling is an indication of absorption and is normal after treatment. 

​

After the 5-Day herbal peel, our old skin will peel and the new skin will show over the next 2 - 6 days. It will look as if a snake is shedding its skin! Generally the area around the mouth will peel first because of the constant movement. Some people may take longer or shorter than the approximated time to peel depending on their health. It is common for smokers to take longer to peel.
