CHEMICAL PEEL RITUALS

Chemical peels are professional exfoliating treatments that use carefully blended acids to dissolve dead skin cells, stimulate cell turnover, and reveal fresher, healthier skin underneath. They are highly effective for improving acne, fine lines, pigmentation, and uneven texture—helping you achieve a smoother, brighter, and more even complexion.

Why Glow Studio loves them: Our chemical peels are chosen for their balance of effectiveness and skin safety. Some peels cause only mild flaking, while deeper options may involve a few days of visible peeling as the skin renews itself. We love them because they deliver noticeable results while supporting long-term skin health and radiance.

Ekseption Peels
peptide-powered chemical peels from spain

The Ekseption Peptide Peels are a new generation of resurfacing from Spain, designed to transform the skin without harsh side effects. Each peel blends organic acids to resurface with bioactive peptides and hydrators to repair, giving results that go far beyond exfoliation.

Unlike traditional peels that can strip and irritate, Ekseption was created to protect the barrier while delivering real correction. The acids are released gradually, so the skin is refined and brightened without stinging or burning. At the same time, peptides strengthen, calm, and rebuild, leaving the skin hydrated, resilient, and visibly renewed.

This balance of resurfacing and repair is why Glow Studio trusts Ekseption: it’s powerful enough to correct concerns like pigmentation, fine lines, or texture, yet gentle enough to keep the skin healthy long-term.
