MandeliClear Peel

A MandeliClear Peel is a safe and effective treatment for many clients, but it may not be suitable for everyone. During your consultation, your practitioner will assess your skin and medical history to ensure the treatment is appropriate for you. You may not be suitable for treatment if you have: * Pregnancy or breastfeeding (unless advised otherwise by your healthcare professional). * An active skin infection, including bacterial, viral or fungal infections. * Active cold sores (herpes simplex) in the treatment area. * Sunburn or excessive recent sun exposure. * Open wounds, cuts or abrasions in the treatment area. * Active eczema, psoriasis or dermatitis affecting the treatment area. * Severe inflamed acne or cystic acne requiring medical management. * A history of abnormal wound healing or keloid scarring. * Used **Roaccutane (Isotretinoin)** within the past **6–12 months**, unless your practitioner advises it is safe to proceed. * Recently undergone laser resurfacing, medium or deep chemical peels, microneedling or other skin resurfacing procedures before the skin has fully healed. * Recently waxed, threaded or used depilatory creams on the treatment area before the recommended healing period. * An allergy or sensitivity to any of the ingredients contained within the peel. * A compromised or damaged skin barrier. Your practitioner will also assess any medications you are taking, your skincare routine and any recent aesthetic treatments, as these may affect your suitability or require your treatment to be postponed. If you are unsure whether a MandeliClear Peel is suitable for you, please book a consultation with **Body Perfection Clinic**, where we can assess your skin and recommend the safest and most appropriate treatment for your individual needs.

Following your MandeliClear Peel treatment, it is important to care for your skin correctly to achieve the best possible results and support healthy healing. It is normal to experience: * Mild redness and sensitivity. * Tightness or dryness of the skin. * Light flaking or peeling, usually beginning 2–4 days after treatment. * Temporary darkening of pigmentation before it gradually fades. These effects are expected and usually resolve within 5–7 days, although deeper pigmentation concerns may take slightly longer. To protect your skin: * Leave the treated area untouched as much as possible. * Keep your skin well hydrated using a gentle moisturiser recommended by your practitioner. * Avoid applying make-up for at least 24 hours, unless advised otherwise. * Use only gentle, non-irritating skincare products. For the first 24–48 hours: Avoid: * Hot baths, hot showers, saunas and steam rooms. * Vigorous exercise that causes excessive sweating. * Swimming pools and hot tubs. * Direct sun exposure. * Touching, rubbing or picking at any peeling skin. For the first 5–7 days: * Apply SPF 30 or higher every day, even in cloudy weather, and reapply if spending time outdoors. * Avoid retinoids, exfoliating acids (AHAs/BHAs), scrubs, vitamin C serums and other active skincare ingredients until your skin has fully recovered or your practitioner advises otherwise. * Allow any peeling skin to shed naturally—do not pick or pull it, as this may increase the risk of irritation, scarring or pigmentation changes. * Continue using a gentle cleanser and fragrance-free moisturiser to support the skin barrier. To achieve the best results from your MandeliClear Peel: * Wear daily SPF 30 or higher to help prevent further pigmentation. * Follow your personalised skincare routine recommended by your practitioner. * Attend your recommended course of treatments for optimal improvement. * Maintain a healthy skincare routine and avoid excessive sun exposure. Please contact Body Perfection Clinic if you have any concerns following your treatment or experience: * Severe or worsening redness that does not improve. * Excessive swelling. * Blistering or persistent pain. * Signs of infection, including increasing redness, excessive heat, pus, discharge, fever or feeling unwell. If you experience signs of infection or any severe or unexpected reaction, seek prompt medical advice from your GP, NHS 111 or your nearest Emergency Department. Your practitioner will be happy to advise you and arrange a review appointment if required.

To ensure your MandeliClear Peel is as safe and effective as possible, please follow the advice below before your appointment. * Avoid sunbathing, sunbeds and excessive sun exposure for at least 2 weeks before your treatment.

During your consultation, your practitioner will assess your skin, discuss your concerns and confirm your suitability for the MandeliClear Peel. A personalised treatment plan will then be created to help improve pigmentation, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, acne-prone skin, uneven skin tone and overall skin clarity safely and effectively.

We offer two consultation options: £25 Face-to-Face Consultation – Includes a comprehensive skin assessment, discussion of your skin concerns, review of your medical history and skincare routine, and a personalised MandeliClear Peel treatment plan tailored to your individual needs. FREE Telephone Consultation – Ideal if you'd like to learn more about the treatment, discuss your skin concerns and ask any initial questions before booking. If you decide to proceed with treatment, we'll recommend the most suitable consultation option based on your skin type, medical history and the results you would like to achieve.

A consultation is an essential part of your MandeliClear Peel treatment and is required before your first appointment. During your consultation, your practitioner will assess your skin, discuss your concerns and determine whether the MandeliClear Peel is the most suitable treatment for your skin type and condition. We will review your: Skin type and complexion. Medical history and current medications. Current skincare routine and active ingredients. Previous chemical peels, laser treatments or aesthetic procedures. Skin concerns, such as pigmentation, melasma, acne, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or uneven skin tone. Treatment goals and expectations. Your practitioner will explain how the MandeliClear Peel works, discuss the expected results, outline any potential risks and answer any questions you may have. This ensures the treatment is safe, appropriate and tailored to your individual skin. During your consultation, your skin will be thoroughly assessed, and photographs may be taken (with your consent) to monitor your progress throughout your treatment course. For your appointment, we recommend arriving with clean skin, free from make-up and skincare products where possible. You may also be advised to stop using certain active ingredients, such as retinoids or exfoliating acids, for several days before your peel to help minimise skin sensitivity. Every client is different, which is why we create a personalised treatment plan based on your skin type, concerns and desired results. Whether you're looking to improve pigmentation, melasma, acne-prone skin, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or overall skin clarity, your MandeliClear Peel treatment will be tailored to help you achieve brighter, clearer and healthier-looking skin safely and effectively.

For your Circadia MandeliClear Peel appointment, we recommend wearing comfortable clothing and arriving with clean skin free from makeup where possible. If treatment is being performed on the face, neck or chest, a loose-fitting top with a wide neckline or buttons is ideal to allow easy access and minimise friction afterwards. Please avoid wearing high collars, scarves or rough fabrics that may irritate the skin following treatment. Soft, breathable clothing is recommended, as the treated area may feel warm, tight or slightly sensitive while the skin undergoes its natural renewal process. Avoid applying fake tan, heavy moisturisers, perfumes or active skincare products to the treatment area before your appointment unless otherwise advised. Loose clothing is particularly important if the neck or chest is being treated, as mild dryness or peeling may occur during the healing phase. Your comfort and privacy are always our priority, and disposable headbands, towels and gowns are provided when required. Following treatment, protecting the skin from friction, excessive heat and sun exposure is essential to support optimal healing and results.
