Obagi Skin Peel at Clinic 22, Saltcoats
As skin function changes over time, factors such as excess oil production, congestion, and reduced cell turnover can contribute to persistent acne and uneven texture. At Clinic 22 in Saltcoats, the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance, a type of chemical skin peel, is used to support clearer, more balanced skin through controlled exfoliation and targeted treatment.
The chemical peel contains a combination of exfoliating agents, including salicylic acid and glycolic acid, which work to remove dead skin cells, cleanse pores, and reduce excess oil. This process also supports improved skin texture, a reduction in visible congestion, and a more even tone. The formulation penetrates the skin to address acne-causing bacteria while helping to calm inflammation.
Your consultation is carried out by an experienced practitioner, who will assess your skin condition and suitability before recommending a tailored approach. Using clinically proven products and precise application techniques, the treatment is performed with precision and care. As a nurse-led, medically regulated clinic, we prioritise safety, skin health, and natural results. Book a consultation to discuss how the Obagi Skin Peel can support clearer, more refined skin.
