Chemical Skin Peels

It has been known for a long time that superficial burning of facial skin can have a rejuvenating effect. In its current form superficial burning of facial skin using chemicals has been used for over one hundred years. 

There are many different agents used for chemical peeling, from mild to severe. The best known of the mild peeling agents are so-called fruit acids, such as glycolic acid. Because of their mild action they can only disrupt the most superficial layer of the skin, the stratum corneum. The effect on the skin is very mild and short-term.

The most profound changes in the skin can be achieved by so-called phenol peels. However, the effect is not due to phenol but a substance called croton oil. This peel is only indicated for some cases of severe wrinkling where surgery cannot offer profound improvement. This type of peeling is a more advanced procedure requiring local anaesthetic and sedation, and recovery of at least two weeks.

“Recommendation after recommendation has put Adams firmly on the Cotswolds map (he has clinics in Berkshire and Oxfordshire). It’s partly down to his nature (he’s a wonderful conversationalist and has charisma in spades), but also his manner, which is thoughtful and careful. His forte? Womanly tummies, with curves in the right places. New mummies in particular love the way he recontours the waistline and creates the illusion of a lightly toned abdomen.”

“Titus Adams makes light work of postpartum tummies, slimming the silhouette and nipping in waists by pulling the underlying muscles tight, like a corset. ‘Though it’s best to leave some fat behind,’ he says. ‘It allows fluid to drain from the body, rather than building up in the tissues’. The fat he does take, however, is useful if there’s need to plump a deflated cleavage. And, because he’s chatty and approachable, smoothing over even the most awkward of questions (like ‘how do you wear your undergarments?’ – crucial, as it ensures the best positioning of scars), you feel at ease. You trust him.”

“Adams listens carefully & closely. And his results are truly top notch whether he is tidying things up after some impressive weight loss or putting you back together after the last baby. The key phrase is ‘preservation of tissues’, to retain a natural appearance.”
