The clinic is based underneath a hairdressing salon. On the outside, it's not very apparent that it is also a "clinic". I was greeted by a lady who was also my therapist. The interior of the clinic was a bit shabby and old - it clearly needs a bit of renovation! I guess, if I've seen the place first I probably would not have decided to have my treatments there because I do lay a lot of emphasis on a professional presentation. The treatment room itself did look a bit dirty, unfortunately. However, the attentiveness and patience of my therapist made up for it. She explained clearly what was going to happen and since this was my first peel I was a bit nervous as well. The treatment itself only lasted two minutes since the skin cannot take the acid for longer without getting burned. It was a light tingling sensation and since my cheeks and jawline are more sensitive than other areas of my face I can feel it more.After that, the therapist wash it off my face again and again to calm my skin down. My skin was still sensitive for the next couple of days but nothing major because I did make sure I moisturise it more than usual. I myself didn't notice much difference after my treatment, however, my boyfriend commented that my skin looks brighter and whiter. I think you probably have to do more than one treatment to see a more visible result. I think the treatment is ok for the Wahanda deal but I would not have paid the original price. I don't think I would return to this clinic for the reason I mentioned above but I cannot fault the therapist and the treatment itself!
I didn't know what to expect from the peel but the therapist was very good at explaining what was going to happen as well as offering other skin care tips. The actual peel did sting quite a bit but was not left on long and was just about bearable. The therapist said my skin may peel after but this didn't happen for me. I did get several compliments about how my skin was glowing the day after the treatment but after a few days I did suffer a break out so I didn't feel many benefits from the peel.
I would not recommend this place, it's underneath a hairdressers and the treatment room was a poky windowless box stuffed with equipment. the milk skin peel consisted of taking my makeup off badly, leaving the eye makeup still on and halfway down my face, then slapping on the peel liquid - a strong gel which stung like crazy for 2 mins, then wiping it off and sending me home. The worst thing about it was the therapist's scare tactics. she spent about 15 mins warning me that it was a chemical peel and that it could make my skin very red and then very flaky and dry for a couple of weeks. She went on and on so much that I almost left and didn't have the treatment. On the advert for the mob deal it didn't say anything about this, if it had I wouldn't have bought the deal - i thought it was a light surface peel. I was so worried about having a reaction that I spent the whole treatment worrying In the end my face was a little red afterwards and was a little dry for a couple of days. I am naturally very oily skinned so someone less oily would have probably had a worse reaction. I wouldn't recommend it.
