At Eye and Face Clinic, our expert Aesthetician Gillian Power offers a carefully curated range of professional chemical peels from three of the most trusted names in medical-grade skincare — AlumierMD, Obagi, and Definisse by RELIFE. Whether your skin concern is pigmentation, ageing, acne, dullness, or uneven texture, Gillian will design a bespoke treatment plan using the peel — or combination of peels — that will deliver the best possible result for your individual skin.
A chemical peel is a treatment used to improve skin texture and tone. An acid is applied to the skin to lower the pH, which loosens the connections between dead skin cells, inducing exfoliation and stimulating new cell growth. As a result of this highly effective exfoliation, the skin ramps up its production of new skin, replacing old, damaged skin cells with healthy new ones. The result is skin that is smoother, clearer, brighter, and more even in tone — often with visible improvement after just a single session.
Today’s advanced chemical peels are designed to meet the needs of busy individuals who want effective results without significant downtime. They can be tailored to your skin condition, its sensitivity, and your skin goals — for all skin tones, all ages, and a wide range of concerns including discolouration, breakouts, dullness, fine lines, and even sensitive or reactive skin.

Anti wrinkle injections use a prescription-only medicine delivered in tiny amounts to specific facial muscles. By relaxing the muscles responsible for wrinkles, lines soften and the skin looks smoother. Results are subtle and tailored, especially when performed by an experienced medical team.
Most clients describe anti wrinkle injections as a series of quick pinches. To keep you comfortable, we use numbing cream or an ice pack before treatment. The session is short, usually around 15-30 minutes, and you can return to daily activities straight away.
At Eye and Face Clinic, Gillian works exclusively with three premium, clinically proven peel brands — each with its own unique formulations and strengths, chosen to ensure that every patient has access to the most appropriate peel for their skin.
AlumierMD peel treatments are the next generation of clinical exfoliation. Using scientifically based, high-performing ingredients, AlumierMD has designed a cosmetically elegant, clean range of peel treatments to suit all skin profiles with exceptional results. All AlumierMD products are free of parabens, sulfates, and dyes.
The AlumierMD range available at Eye and Face Clinic includes:
The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is a salicylic acid, glycolic acid, and lactic acid peel, suitable for all ethnicities and skin types. This peel aims to brighten and smoothen skin texture, and decongest clogged pores.
It is a superficial chemical peel with little to no downtime — making it the perfect lunchtime peel. You can return to work straight after treatment with a radiant glow. Salicylic acid penetrates deep into the pores, dissolving impurities and excess oil. Glycolic acid gently exfoliates the skin’s surface, promoting cell turnover and revealing a smoother texture. Lactic acid, a mild exfoliant, helps improve skin tone and texture while providing hydration.
This peel has a keratolytic effect, meaning it sheds dead skin and unblocks pores effectively. It is particularly beneficial for those with oily and blemish-prone skin, and also offers remarkable results for patients with dull mature skin, fine lines, and rough, uneven skin texture.
The Definisse Rinnova Peel is a sophisticated TCA-based treatment from RELIFE. At the heart of this peel is trichloroacetic acid at 25% — a well-established peeling agent that penetrates below the most superficial layer of skin, causing controlled changes to skin cells and leaving the skin beautifully rejuvenated. The exclusive blend of active ingredients stimulates collagen production, improves elasticity, and boosts skin hydration.
The Definisse Rinnova Peel is designed to enhance skin hydration and offer anti-inflammatory effects. It provides an immediate glow, brightness, and freshness to the skin — perfect for special occasions. Following treatment, the peel continues to exfoliate the top skin layers, supporting ongoing cell renewal and stimulating collagen production, resulting in smoother, more rejuvenated skin.
The Definisse Rinnova Peel is especially beneficial for improving the appearance of scarred or damaged skin, revealing a clearer complexion over time.
The treatment itself is quick and comfortable. The peel is gently massaged onto the face and left to work for 3 to 5 minutes. After removal, there is no downtime — so it is easy to get right back to your day.
With such a varied and comprehensive range of peels available, Gillian will always conduct a thorough skin consultation before recommending any treatment. The right peel for your skin depends on your skin type, tone, current condition, concerns, lifestyle, and the results you are looking to achieve. In some cases, a course of peels combining more than one brand or formulation may be recommended to target multiple concerns simultaneously.
Gillian may also recommend combining your peel programme with a bespoke AlumierMD homecare routine to maximise your in-clinic results and keep your skin progressing between appointments.
On the day, your skin is cleansed and prepped, the chosen peel applied with precision, then finished with post-peel serums and SPF.
Most peels take 30–45 minutes. A single peel can leave skin instantly brighter, but more significant results — for texture, fine lines, and acne — build over a course of treatments alongside consistent homecare. Gillian typically recommends a course for the best overall outcome.
The peels offered at Eye and Face Clinic are all light to superficial, chosen for excellent results with minimal downtime. AlumierMD peels are formulated to reduce irritation and redness. The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is often called a “lunchtime peel,” as you can return to work straight after. The Definisse Rinnova TCA Peel is equally well tolerated. Some mild redness, flaking, or sensitivity in the days after is normal — simply your skin’s natural renewal process at work.
Your Journey to Trusted Care Starts Here.
No rush, no pressure – just honest medical advice.
As a fully trained and certified professional across all three peel brands, Gillian brings an exceptional level of skincare knowledge, clinical skill, and personal care to every treatment. She takes the time to truly assess your skin before every session — selecting the most appropriate peel, adjusting layering and intensity, and ensuring your treatment is always perfectly matched to your skin’s needs on the day.
Gillian works as part of the wider team at Eye and Face Clinic alongside Consultant Surgeon Dr Janice Brady, offering patients a genuinely integrated and comprehensive approach to their skin health. Patients undergoing injectable treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, or skin boosters will benefit enormously from Gillian’s peel and skincare expertise working in tandem with Dr Brady’s medical treatments.
