Yellow Peel

Retinoic acid peel

A retinoic-acid peel that stays on for some hours, then lifts away over a few days, for pigment, marks and uneven tone.

Coming for a course?

How many sessions you need depends on your skin and your goals, so packages are put together at your consultation.

Who it's for
  • You want a stronger peel than a glow peel
  • You can stay out of the sun for a week
  • You're happy to have a few days of peeling
How it works

The peel has a yellow tint from retinoic acid, which speeds up skin renewal. It's left on for the time Dr. Poonam sets and washed off at home. Over the next days the skin peels lightly, and brighter skin comes through.
