BIOREPEEL
A powerful chemical peel combining trichloroacetic acid (TCA), lactobionic acid, salicylic acid, citric acid and tartaric acid with vitamin C, vitamin B2, squalane and amino acids. BioRePeel is the strongest peel offered at BLOOM but not only is it safe for all skin tones with no skep prep required, it has zero downtime.
It works on your skin from the inside out, reducing hyperpigmentation, acne, pore size and scars while reversing signs of ageing (such as wrinkles and skin laxity) by significantly boosting the production of collagen, elastin and growth factor levels.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Following a double cleanse, skin will be disinfected and the peel will be applied. For your first treatment it will be left on the skin for a maximum of three minutes, all future treatments will be five minutes. It can feel a little tingly, but it isn’t painful.
While many clinics simply remove BioRePeel with water, BLOOM neutralises it with a special gel (this step is often overlooked as TCA is a self-neutralising ingredient, but salicylic acid is not). Finishing products are then applied.
Skin may be a little red afterwards, but this quickly subsides. And if all pre- and aftercare is followed, no shedding should be experienced but skin can feel dry afterwards.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO YOU NEED?
One treatment will give an instant glow and noticeable improvements; however, most people need four treatments every one or two weeks for significant skin improvement to clear both acne and its purging, deep hyperpigmentation and acne scars.
When you book four treatments, complimentary skincare is provided to enhance results, worth £110.
