The SilkPeel is a skin treatment device that simultaneously exfoliates and suctions away dead skin cells, while applying customized serums to treat specific skin conditions. The SilkPeel facial uses a diamond-tipped or vortex-tipped wand, which cleanses and exfoliates the skin. The tip is coarse but the level of coarseness is selected and customised to suit your skin type. Gentle tips are employed for treatment on lips and around the eyes—these are often missed by other exfoliation treatments because of their delicate nature. To begin the SilkPeel procedure, the specialist will cleanse the face to remove any make-up, oil, dirt, or other debris that has accumulated on the skin. Next, the SilkPeel hand piece will be moved along the treatment area, focusing on specific areas of interest if necessary. The tip of the hand piece creates a closed-loop vacuum suction with the skin, lifting the skin for extraction and abrasion by the recessed exfoliating diamond tip. At the same time, the pneumatic pressure infuses skin with specific serums. SilkPeel eliminates time-gaps between exfoliation and serum application for optimal skin treatment and effect. The SilkPeel Dermalinfusion treatment takes about 30 minutes. Best results come from regular maintenance appointments every four to six weeks. With SilkPeel there should be no significant downtime.

Who should get a SilkPeel?
There are no limitations on skin type since the treatment is condition-specific. Our staff will evaluate you and obtain your history to provide the diamond-tip and serum that should work best for you. However, there are sometimes medical conditions that lead to patients being not suitable for such treatments. Your aesthetician will determine if the procedure is suitable for you, in case you have any underlying conditions.
What are post treatment expectations?
The SilkPeel will have a volumizing effect and your skin will glow and look refreshed after treatment. You may experience some redness due to the exfoliation, but it resolves quickly. The immediate effects of the treatment can be noticed for up to three days. Long-term, regular use will lead to more noticeable differences in your skin.
