Synergie Skin Chemical Peels
At Glow By Monique, we offer Synergie Skin Chemical Peels, formulated with a Clean Science® approach to support and restore skin health without compromising the skin barrier. These clinically advanced peels provide a solution for a range of skin concerns, from dullness and pigmentation to texture and congestion.
Chemical peels work by applying a solution to the skin that encourages the natural shedding of dead or damaged skin cells. This process stimulates cell renewal and promotes a clearer, smoother, and more even skin tone. Unlike harsh or aggressive resurfacing treatments, Synergie Skin peels are designed to be gentle yet effective, targeting specific concerns without compromising skin integrity.
Synergie Skin peels are evidence-based and free from questionable ingredients. They are suitable for a range of skin concerns, including congestion, dullness, uneven tone, and mild pigmentation.
Why Choose synergie skin
Synergie Skin’s range of clinical-grade peels is evidence-based and aligned with their Clean Science® philosophy. This means they combine safe, ethical formulations with scientifically proven ingredients to deliver optimal results without the use of synthetic fragrances, parabens, or questionable additives. These peels are suitable for a variety of skin types, including sensitive skin.
Chemical peels are professional treatments designed to smooth surface irregularities and support overall skin renewal. They work by removing the outermost layers of the skin, encouraging natural cell turnover and revealing a more refined texture. This process also stimulates collagen remodeling, improves hydration, reduces congestion, and helps even out tone and texture.
Uneven skin tone
Dullness and surface roughness
Congestion and breakouts
Mild pigmentation
Loss of firmness and hydration
LACTIC ACID PEELS: Ideal for hydration and luminosity. These peels help boost moisture levels and bring out a healthy, glowing complexion.
SALICYLIC ACID PEELS: Target oil production and reduce congestion. Perfect for oily or acne-prone skin, they can help clear blocked pores and reduce breakouts.
MANDELIC ACID PEELS: A gentler exfoliation option, suitable for sensitive or reactive skin types, while still providing the benefits of deep skin renewal.
SYNERGIE SIGNATURE BLENDS: Customised peels to address specific skin concerns, ensuring that each treatment is designed to meet your unique needs.
To enhance the results of your chemical peel, the treatment is often paired with Synergie Skin’s BioAlgenate Mask. This soothing mask works to deeply hydrate and calm the skin after the peel, helping to reduce any redness or irritation. It also aids in boosting the skin’s repair process, leaving it feeling refreshed and nourished. The BioAlgenate Mask is packed with skin-loving ingredients that complement the effects of the peel, ensuring your skin feels rejuvenated and restored.
FAQs
What possible side effects of chemical peels?
- A tingling or burning sensation may be felt during the application of the peel.
- Your skin may feel warm, tight, swollen, or itchy for up to 24 hours following the treatment.
- The skin may appear slightly pink and feel tight immediately after the treatment.
- Complete sun avoidance is required for 24 hours, and sun protection must be worn and reapplied throughout the healing process, as your skin will be more sensitive to UV light in the 1 to 10-day period following the peel.
- Skin may peel for 5-7 days post-treatment. It is important to avoid picking or scratching, as this can impact results.
- Mild to moderate discomfort may occur for up to 3 days. If swelling and discomfort persist longer than 72 hours, contact your clinician.

Preparation for Chemical Peels:
- Before your chemical peel treatment, it’s important to prepare your skin to ensure the best
results and a safe experience. We recommend starting with Synergie Skin essential vitamins
(A, B, C) a minimum of 14 days prior to your treatment. These vitamins help to prime your
skin for better healing and optimal results.
Additionally, we recommend the use of daily solar protection to protect your skin from
harmful UV rays. If your concerns include breakouts or acne, your clinician may suggest
using ReVeal prior to your treatment. For pigmentation concerns, EnLighten may be advised
for a minimum of 14 days before the peel.
What should I expect immediately following the treatment?
- Apply De-Stress and Recover Balm to reduce irritation, dryness, and shedding.
- Avoid heat or perspiration-inducing activities for 12 hours following the treatment.
- Avoid UV exposure, saunas, spas, or chlorinated pools for 48 hours.
- Avoid makeup for a minimum of 8 hours, unless mineral protection is provided by your clinician.
- Limit stimulants (coffee, alcohol) or avoid them if possible.
- Avoid hot showers or friction to the face, such as hot water and abrasive towels.
What aftercare steps should be taken following my treatment?
- Maintain full chemical-free solar protection with ÜberZinc or Synergie Minerals foundation.
- Cleanse your skin with a gentle cleanser such as BioCleanse or UltraCleanse and apply De-Stress or Recover Balm during the irritation or shedding phase (typically 1-5 days).
- The day following your treatment, reintroduce Dermiotic, Vitamin B/XCell B/Priority B, and/or HyalaVive to support skin healing and barrier repair. For hyperpigmentation concerns, EnLighten or VaNish can be introduced.
- You can resume your active skincare regimen (e.g., Vitamin A, C, AHA/BHA) 3-5 days post-treatment, once any inflammation has subsided.
- Do not pick, scratch, or abrade peeling or flaking skin, as this can impact results.
- Avoid facial waxing or shaving for 7 days following treatment.
