A chemical peel is a skin treatment that uses a special solution to gently remove dead skin cells from the surface, revealing fresh, soft skin underneath. Removing the top layers of the skin helps the skin produce new cells faster. This also boosts the production of collagen, elastin, and other important substances as new skin replaces old skin.
Chemical peels are divided into three categories: light, medium, and deep. This depends on how deeply they penetrate the skin and the concerns they address. Light peels improve fine lines and surface blemishes. Medium peels target deeper wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. Deep peels treat pronounced skin conditions and significant sun damage.
Beauty by Joulexa is proud to partner with COSMEDIX, a leading brand trusted by skin clinics and skincare professionals worldwide, to offer advanced metabolic peels. Traditional chemical peels use high concentrations of harsh acids that sit on the outermost layer of the skin and slowly absorb, causing excess shedding and irritation. COSMEDIX’s metabolic peels combine chirally correct acids and Vitamin A to support skin renewal from within, reducing unnecessary damage and sensitivity. These smart ingredients work with the skin’s natural metabolism to deliver highly effective treatments with less sensitivity and downtime. COSMEDIX metabolic peels are suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types and provide an effective option for any skin concern, including the most sensitive skin.
Each peel treatment begins with a double cleanse to clear impurities and prepare your skin for active ingredients, followed by relaxation under LED lights to soothe the skin. The clinician then applies a COSMEDIX peel, letting it work for 5 to 10 minutes to maximise absorption. After removing the peel, the clinician applies a rich, hydrating moisturiser. The treatment finishes with a soothing eye and lip application to enhance your results and overall experience.

The COSMEDIX Deep Sea Peel is a groundbreaking, non-acid, chemical-free herbal peel that uses microscopic, needle-like spicules from marine organisms to create micro-channels in the skin, stimulating natural healing much like microneedling. This innovative spicule peel promotes cell turnover, boosts collagen and elastin production, and enhances active ingredient absorption for effective resurfacing with minimal trauma.
Suitable for a variety of skin types, it targets acne scars, melasma, hyperpigmentation, and uneven texture. Key ingredients like lichen extract reduce redness and promote recovery, while coral powder and sea sponge detoxify and support collagen induction, resulting in dramatic rejuvenation, lifted pigmentation, and softer-looking acne scars.

What to expect during a Deep Sea Peel?
The treatment starts with a double cleanse, followed by relaxation under LED lights to soothe the skin. The Deep Sea peel is then applied to four sections of the face, with each portion massaged for 1 to 5 minutes depending on the desired depth of treatment. The entire process takes up to 45 minutes. After the peel is removed, a rich moisturiser is applied to calm, smooth, and rejuvenate the complexion. You may feel tingling or light scratching as the marine extracts activate. This normal response shows that the peel is prompting cellular renewal.
What to expect after a Deep Sea Peel?
Days 1 to 2: Your skin may feel warm, tight, and appear red, similar to a mild sunburn.
Days 3 to 4: You may notice dryness, tightness, and mild flaking.
Days 5 to 7: Peeling will reveal fresh skin, though mild sensitivity may persist as your skin adjusts.
Each stage promotes stronger, healthier skin. Optimal results are visible 10 days after treatment. You can expect improved skin tone and texture, reduced pigmentation, and a smoother, firmer, brighter, and more hydrated appearance. Please follow your aftercare instructions and allow your skin to recover naturally.
How many Deep Sea Peel treatments will I need?
Your skin will show improvement after a single treatment. Depending on your concerns, you may need 1-3 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
Recommended Add-Ons
Microdermabrasion $40 (15 mins)
The procedure uses a diamond-tipped wand to gently abrade the skin’s surface, removing dead skin cells. A vacuum device then removes debris and impurities, resulting in a smoother and more even skin tone. Recommended for Pomegranate Peel.
Dermaplaning $49 (20 mins)
Dermaplaning is the controlled removal of the skin using a specialised blade held at a 45-degree angle to eliminate keratinised cells on the outer layer and fine vellus hair. Recommended for Pomegranate Peel.
Esthemax Hydrojelly Mask $30
Esthemax Hydrojelly Masks are masks made with electrolytes and algae that give the skin lots of moisture, a cooling feeling, and help calm it. They form a tight seal on the skin to help important ingredients soak in, keep the skin moist, reduce redness and swelling, and provide different options for issues like acne, aging, and dull-looking skin.
