About this service

The MandeliClear Peel is the studio's most targeted treatment for hyperpigmentation, melasma, and post-inflammatory dark spots. It works deeper than surface acids — and unlike most stronger peels, it's specifically formulated to work safely on darker skin tones.

This is a downtime peel. You will experience visible flaking and peeling for 7–10 days following the treatment, and a post-peel kit must be used during recovery. The result is brighter, more even tone and meaningful reduction in pigmentation that surface peels can't achieve.

For clients with higher Fitzpatrick types, a 2–3 month pre-peel kit may be recommended before treatment. Your esthetician will determine whether pre-treatment is needed during your skin analysis.

Featured ingredients: salicylic acid (penetrates pores and exfoliates sebaceous material), lactic acid (suppresses melanin and hydrates), resorcinol (increases peeling depth), and mandelic acid (antibacterial and brightening).

Important: nothing applied to the skin for 12 hours after treatment — not even water. No picking the peeling skin. Avoid heat, sweating, and mechanical scrubs. Sun spots may darken before they lighten. Consistency over months is what produces the result.
