Skin ยท Chemical Peel ยท Anti-Ageing
Yellow Peel (Retinoic Acid Peel) is a uniquely effective chemical peel that harnesses the power of Vitamin A at a professional concentration โ delivering anti-ageing, brightening, acne control, and pigmentation improvement in a single treatment with beautiful results.
About This Treatment
Yellow Peel gets its name from the characteristic yellow colour of retinoic acid (a Vitamin A derivative). Unlike traditional chemical peels that primarily exfoliate, retinoic acid works at a deeper cellular level โ stimulating fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin, normalising skin cell turnover, and regulating melanin production simultaneously.
It is applied in clinic and worn overnight (sometimes for 6โ8 hours), then washed off at home. Over the following 3โ5 days, the skin peels gently but significantly โ revealing fresh, brighter, smoother skin with visible improvement in fine lines, pigmentation, and acne. It is particularly popular for its triple-action benefit in a single peel.
