Why this peel?
While this peel treats all skin issues, see list below, being in the West of Ireland we are seeing a huge rise in melasma on Clients skin. This is a pigmentation issue that cannot be touched with IPL or laser. This peel is a very effective peel in reducing melasma and hyperpigmentation without using IPLs.
What is the Elaine Brennan Skin Renewal Peel
This peel is a safe and unique cosmetic peeling treatment producing powerful results with minimal discomfort and a few days downtime, based on resorcinol and salicylic acid compounded in special non-penetrating base ingredients. The special characteristic of the exfoliation technique of this peel is that no destruction of the living cells is involved. The cells in the uppermost (dead) layer detach leaving the living layers absolutely intact. Only very few substances have this property. This peel corrects skin problems at the cellular level rather than just the surface skin.
The purpose of the peel is:
- To physically remove the upper layers of the epidermis as this layer shows hyper pigmentation, melasma, sun damage and is the layer which blocks pores and traps bacteria, which in turn causes acne and blackheads. It removes dry skin which emphasises fine lines and wrinkles. The physical part of the peeling is what provides the even tone, glow and freshness to the skin.
- The second part of the peeling process is what goes on underneath the skin. The reason this peeling is so effective is not because it causes the skin to peel. It is what happens deep in the living layers. During peeling the skin’s own defence mechanism is triggered by a safe and controlled dramatization. When subjected to stress, the skin fights back by strengthening the elastin and collagen fibers found in the dermis, and produces new bundles of fibrous tissue – both collagen and elastin.

How does the EB Skin Renewal Peeling System differ from other peels?
The special characteristics of the exfoliation technique are that no destructions of living cells is involved. Only dead cell layers are detached from the skin which remains absolutely intact. The main component Resorcinol is one of the very few substances which have this property. Many other peelings in high concentration can destroy the cells in the deeper layers of the epidermis, which can damage the delicate skin tissues. This peel is performed lightly and progressively to produce much better cosmetic results than more aggressive peels.
Can the EB Skin Renewal Peeling System damage my skin?
No. The peelings are safe and controlled with no nasty surprises in store for you. Any risks are removed by using special base ingredients which have no penetration properties and therefore, cannot carry the peeling process too deeply into the skin. There are no toxic side-effects.
The EB Skin Renewal Peeling System is recommended for all types of skin and the peelings can be repeated at will.
How many EB Skin Renewal Peelings can be done?
There is no limit to the number of this type of peeling that a skin will stand, which is not surprising considering that each peeling stimulates regrowth. Sequential peelings are spaced 6-8 weeks apart. Usually 2-3 treatments are recommended, depending on the condition of the skin.
What can I expect?
The duration of the application for one peel is two hours on two days consecutively. The peel is safe to apply to the eyelids also if required. There will be a mild stinging sensation for a few minutes, which is controlled by a powerful cooling fan. There is nothing painful about the exfoliation process. Over the following 3 days the skin will feel tight and slightly uncomfortable, and will darken depending on the amount of melanin content in the skin. From day 4 – 7 the skin will peel strongly. On day 7 or 8 you will return to the Clinic to have the remainder of the skin removed, you cannot remove this skin yourself.
What do my results look like?
The peeling system consists of a powerful peeling formulation that produces GENUINE REJUVENATION of the skin. More important than the physical peeling, is the formation of collagen which takes place in the dermis and takes approximately 2- 3 months to form. This is why we cannot see immediate results until at least 2 months post peeling. There are no instant overnight transformations. Beautiful skin takes time, patience and a skilled knowledgeable practitioner. The effects of the treatment are long lasting. After the peeling, the skin continues to improve for 8-12 months becoming firmer and tighter, more supple and elastic developing a smooth texture with a stable moisture balance.
