Corrective Peels
Corrective or Chemical peeling is one of the most popular and effective aesthetics treatments, helping patients rejuvenate and improve the overall health and appearance of the dermis. However, not all chemical peels are created equally: from the “at-home” high-street, single-active serum, to a medically-administered, medium-depth clinical peel, it can be unclear what sets an “ok” peel apart from an “incredible” peeling system. Chemical peels are generally classified as superficial, medium or deep, depending on the depth of penetration after application. A number of peeling agents are capable of achieving a range of penetration depths, depending on their percentage and method of application.
At Dr Farah’s Clinic we offer a range of corrective peels are treatments that use a range of acids to provide resurfacing to the top layers of the skin. By using acids such as glycolic acid, salicylic acid, TCA we can revive and renew the complexion. These peels can be used to treat acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, fine lines and work to reveal new healthy and even skintone.
The Perfect Peel (5-acid blended chemical peel with glutathione, vitamin c and minerals)
The Perfect Peel is a revolutionary peel that will transform your skin into looking younger, healthier and clearer in just one week. The Perfect Peel can be used on all skin types and requires no pre-peel skin preparation. The process takes less than 15 minutes and is virtually pain free.
The Perfect Peel founds itself on a key anti-aging ingredient never before used in a peel: Glutathione. Glutathione is the ultimate antioxidant, penetrating deep into the cellular level of the skin to fight oxidant damage and is the anti-aging answer to premature wrinkling. Our bodies naturally produce glutathione but as we age, our levels deplete due to sun exposure, air pollutants, environmental stress and the aging process itself. Glutathione is also proven to reverse melanin’s metabolism, lightening dark pigmentations.
The Perfect Peel blends glutathione, kojic acid, TCA, retinoic acid, salicylic acid, phenol, and a blend of minerals and vitamins, including vitamin C. Kojic acid is a powerful lightening agent and proven to increase collagen and elastin production, resulting in skin that is brighter and tighter. TCA, phenol and retinoic acid reduce wrinkles and correct pigment problems, while salicylic acid exfoliates the skin and reduces inflammation. Alone the ingredients are powerful, but in combination they produce results that are astonishing.
To follow The Perfect Peel, you are given an individual home treatment pack. This pack contains retinol wipes and a vitamin C moisturiser to assist the peeling process and enhance your results.

Lift your confidence with MINT™ PDO
Collagen and elastin are the vital proteins that make up the supporting structure of the skin and keep it looking firm and youthful. However, as you age, it takes a longer time for your body to produce them which contributes to sagging skin and wrinkles. Heavy nasolabial folds, deepened smile lines, jowling, sunken cheeks – all these features can make you appear older and more tired. Prevention is the best way to maintain your skin’s firmness and elasticity, but what can you do if you’re already experiencing the effects of aging?
What is MINT™ PDO Thread Lift?
MINT™ stands for Minimal Invasive Nonsurgical Threads and is commonly known as the Thread Face Lift. It is a minimally invasive alternative to surgery, that serves to make your face look younger and brighter without the need for cutting away the skin. In a thread lift, threads are inserted underneath the skin to lift sagging skin instantly and effectively. The threads are mainly used on the face and the neck, but can also be used to lift skin on the body. The thread lifting procedure is a minimally invasive, safe, and effective procedure with little downtime. It is also a great preventative or maintenance treatment. PDO threads can help preserve youthful skin before skin laxity becomes more discernible to the eye. Once these threads are inserted, they can even help to stimulate collagen production so your skin can stay looking nice and plump.
How do I know if I am a good candidate for MINT™ PDO?
For the most optimal results, the ideal candidate should have a skin layer that is not too thin or too thick and not extremely uneven. The skin should be thin enough so MINT™ PDO can make a visible difference and thick enough so the threads are not too close to the surface of the skin. One way to check before a consultation with your provider is to lay down on your back and see if you like the way your face looks, as it can be a good indicator of how effective MINT™ PDO can be. Lastly, please consult with the physician if you are an optimal candidate for MINT™ Procedure.
What is the Benefit of MINT™ PDO?
– Long-lasting results (up to 12 -18 months)
– Little risk of adverse reaction
– Minimal downtime
– No incision = no scarring
– Combined with other anti-aging treatments such as filler
– An excellent alternative to surgical options
– 2-in-1 lifting and firming procedure: patients may also experience improvement in skin texture, fine lines, and elasticity
from collagen stimulation and neovascularization, which will give the skin an overall firmer and tighter look over time.
PRP
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), is an effective and natural treatment that uses your own growth factors within the skin for stimulating collagen and elastin production. As well as an excellent rejuvenation treatment, it can also be used to enhance the treatment of acne scars and dark circles around the eyes. PRP can be used alone or used in conjunction with Mesotherapy or microneedling to boost results.
PRP harnesses the power of your own stem cells drawn from your blood. A small sample of blood is taken and spun to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the red blood cells. The richly nourishing plasma is then injected back into skin or used in combination with other treatments to improve volume, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improve skin tone and clarity. The plasma can be injected into the face, neck, decolletage, hands and the scalp.
