Chemical Peels

Have You Tried a Chemical Peel Yet at Ritual Beauty Spa in Alton & Alresford?

Chemical peels often sound a little scary, don’t they? Images of bright red, peeling faces and days hiding indoors come to mind. Maybe it sounds perfect for Halloween, but surely not for everyday life?

The truth is, chemical peels are actually one of the most effective treatments for transforming your skin’s surface and at Ritual Spa in Alton, we absolutely love them. They’re not as intimidating as they sound, and when done professionally, they can safely deliver glowing, youthful, refined skin with minimal downtime.

So let’s bust some myths about chemical peels and see if they’re right for you.

Skin Peel Treatment

What Are Chemical Peels?

Think of a chemical peel as hitting the refresh button on your skin. By removing dull, tired surface skin cells, peels allow fresh, healthy cells to shine through.

At Ritual, we use carefully chosen AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids) and BHAs (beta hydroxy acids) to exfoliate and renew. Not only do they clear congestion and speed up cell turnover, but they can also:

Firm the skin
Smooth fine lines
Reduce pores
Brighten uneven skin tone

The result? Skin that looks smoother, brighter, and revitalised.

Busting the Biggest Myths About Chemical Peels

1. “My skin will peel afterwards.”

Myth!
Modern chemical peels aren’t like the horror stories. Thanks to advanced formulas, there’s usually no heavy peeling and very little downtime. Think of it as an intense exfoliation — powerful, but skin-friendly.

2. “My skin is too sensitive/dry/dark/blemished for a peel.”

Myth!
Our expert therapists personalise every peel to your skin type, tone, and needs. Whether you’re battling dullness, breakouts, pigmentation, or fine lines, there’s a peel that can work safely for you. Even sensitive skin can benefit with the right care plan.

3. “It will hurt.”

Myth (ish)!
You may feel a light tingling or mild warmth, but discomfort is very short-lived. Most clients describe it as a refreshing, energising sensation. The results make it more than worth it.
