Chemical Peel Training
Ready to take your skin treatments beyond the basic facial? 🧪✨
Our Chemical Peel Training Course gives you the knowledge, skin understanding and treatment skills needed to introduce professional chemical peels into your practice, subject to your professional scope and insurance.
Because choosing a peel shouldn’t be about grabbing the strongest acid on the shelf. 😅
It’s about understanding the skin, the ingredients, the depth of action and the client in front of you.
What Are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels use carefully selected acids or exfoliating agents to create a controlled exfoliation of the skin.
Different peel ingredients, strengths and formulations work at different depths and can be selected according to the client’s skin, concerns and desired outcome.
That means one peel definitely doesn’t fit all.
What Will You Actually Learn?
You’ll cover:
- 🧪 Understanding Chemical Peels: How chemical peeling works and the principles behind controlled skin exfoliation
- 🔬 Skin Anatomy & Physiology: Understanding the structure, function and layers of the skin
- 🩺 Consultation & Skin Assessment: Assessing skin type, condition, concerns and treatment suitability
- 📊 Peel Classification: Understanding superficial, medium and deeper peel classifications and their differences
- 🧬 Acids & Active Ingredients: Understanding commonly used peel ingredients including AHAs, BHAs, enzymes and other professional peeling agents
- ✨ Superficial Chemical Peels: Selecting and using appropriate superficial peel formulations
- 📏 Peel Strength & Depth: Understanding concentration, pH, formulation and factors that influence how a peel behaves on the skin
- 🚩 Indications & Contraindications: Knowing when a chemical peel may be appropriate and when NOT to treat
- 🧼 Skin Preparation & Infection Control: Preparing the treatment area and maintaining safe working practices
- ⚠️ Treatment Reactions & Complications: Understanding expected skin responses, recognising adverse reactions and knowing when to stop or escalate
- 📝 Treatment Protocols: Step-by-step preparation, application, monitoring and completion of treatment
- 💬 Pre & Post-Treatment Care: Preparing your client and providing appropriate aftercare
- 📋 Professional Practice: Consultation, consent, documentation, scope of practice and responsible treatment delivery
Acids & Peeling Agents
You’ll develop an understanding of a range of ingredients commonly encountered within professional skin peeling, including:
🍋 Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) including glycolic, lactic, mandelic and other AHAs
🧪 Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) including salicylic acid
🍍 Enzyme Peels including papain and fruit-derived enzymes
✨ Azelaic Acid
🌺 Botanical and alternative peeling ingredients
🧬 Retinoid-based formulations
You’ll also explore stronger peel classifications and ingredients such as TCA and phenol from a theory and safety perspective, including why treatment depth significantly changes the level of risk, practitioner competence and clinical considerations involved.
How Does The Training Work?
Know the skin. Understand the acid. Then peel. 🙌
Complete your online theory at your own pace, building your understanding of skin science, peel ingredients, client selection, treatment protocols and safety.
Then progress through the practical elements of your training to put that knowledge into practice.
ASSESS THE SKIN → CHOOSE THE PEEL → UNDERSTAND THE DEPTH → TREAT WITH PURPOSE
Because great skin results don’t come from using the strongest peel.
They come from knowing which peel is right for the skin in front of you.
