Medical Grade Chemical Peels Cape Town – Superficial Glow, Expert Care with Dr Blink
Hi, I’m Dr Blink, a medical aesthetics practitioner based in Bloubergstrand, Cape Town. At my boutique clinic, I offer a full range of chemical peels designed to restore radiance, smooth skin texture, and support your long-term skincare journey.
If you’re searching for more information about medical grade chemical peels or are curious about chemical peel prices and results, this guide explains how I use scientifically backed products and techniques to help you achieve beautiful skin safely and effectively.
What Is a Chemical Peel?
A chemical peel is a medically supervised skin-resurfacing treatment that uses specific acid-based solutions to exfoliate and renew the skin’s outer layers. The process encourages healthy cell turnover and stimulates collagen, revealing smoother, brighter skin underneath.
Chemical peels come in different strengths:
– Superficial peels: These are light exfoliating treatments using ingredients like lactic acid or glycolic acid. Ideal for a monthly “glow-up” with no downtime, they’re like a facial on steroids—perfect before a special event. Don’t be misled by the term “peel”—superficial peels don’t cause dramatic skin shedding. Instead, they gently smooth and refresh your complexion.
– Medium peels: These target deeper pigmentation, early lines, and scarring.
– Deep peels: These are used more selectively for advanced sun damage or deep wrinkles.
At Dr Blink Medical Aesthetics & Laser, every peel is customised to your skin type, tone, and concerns—ensuring the perfect balance between effectiveness and safety.
Why Superficial Peels Are a Game-Changer
– Delivers instant glow with minimal downtime
– Preps the skin for other treatments
– Can be safely repeated monthly
– Ideal as part of your skincare maintenance routine
– Suitable for most skin types
Think of it as the foundation of your aesthetic journey—an easy yet powerful way to maintain youthful, radiant skin over time.

What to Expect from Your Peel
- Consultation – We assess your skin and recommend the most appropriate peel.
2. Pre-treatment Prep – Some skin types may benefit from prepping products.
3. Application – Expect mild tingling as the solution is applied.

Combine Your Peel with Mesotherapy
To maximise your skin renewal results, we often combine chemical peels with mesotherapy—a technique that delivers targeted nutrients and active ingredients deep into the skin. The result? Firmer, smoother, brighter skin with enhanced collagen production and improved hydration.
Chemical Peel Pricing
Prices vary based on the depth and complexity of the peel. Entry-level peels such as lactic acid or Neostrata are more affordable and ideal for regular maintenance. More advanced pigment or acne protocols like Cosmelan or Mesoestetic peels may require a series of sessions and have a higher upfront cost.
All costs are explained in detail during your consultation with transparent pricing.
