A Guide to Safe Skin Peels in Central Hong Kong

Skin peels have become a go-to treatment for anyone looking to refresh and rejuvenate their complexion. In the heart of Central Hong Kong, advanced skincare options are readily available, but choosing the right one is key to achieving a healthy glow safely.

At Optimal Medi-Spa, we prioritise safety and efficacy, using medical-grade products to exfoliate the skin, improve texture, and stimulate collagen without unnecessary irritation.

From Glow-Ups to Advanced Pigmentation Care

Selecting the correct treatment depends entirely on your skin type and specific concerns. While many may seek a “lunchtime glow,” others require more intensive solutions for sun damage and melasma.

• Light to Medium Peels: We offer Glycolic, Salicylic, and Lactic acid peels for mild exfoliation, brightening, and clearing acne-prone skin. For deeper issues such as fine lines and stubborn pigmentation, our TCA peels deliver more transformative results.

• The Gold Standard for Pigmentation: We specialise in Cosmelan, the world’s leading professional depigmentation method. It is highly effective for treating melasma and dark spots.

• Advanced Treatment: For those requiring a more intensive approach, we now offer Dermamelan, the advanced medical version of the Cosmelan peel, providing deeper results for complex pigmentation issues.

Expert Tip: At Optimal Medi-Spa, we are currently offering the advanced Dermamelan treatment at the same price as Cosmelan, ensuring you have access to the highest level of care for your skin.

What to Expect During Treatment

A professional peel typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. During application, you may feel a mild tingling or warming sensation—this is perfectly normal.

For standard peels, light flaking begins within two to three days. However, for Cosmelan and Dermamelan, the process is more involved, including an in-clinic mask followed by a strict home-care regimen. Our specialists will guide you through every step of this journey.

Maximising Your Results

In Hong Kong’s humid but high-UV environment, aftercare is non-negotiable:

1. Protect: Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily. Your “new” skin will be susceptible to the sun.

2. Hydrate: Use gentle, fragrance-free moisturisers to support the healing process.

3. Hands Off: Never pick at peeling skin; let it shed naturally to avoid scarring or rebound pigmentation.
