Acid Peels in New Eltham, Greenwich
Peels are one of the most effective treatments we offer for uneven tone and texture, and one of the most misunderstood. We talk you through the options, start gently if you are new to peels, and build up over a course where that is right.
A chemical peel removes the dull, uneven top layer of skin so that fresher skin can come through. For clients from New Eltham we choose the acid and the strength to suit your skin and your goal — pigmentation, texture, breakouts or simply a brighter complexion.
Getting to us from New Eltham
We carry out acid peels at our Forest Hill salon rather than as a home visit, because it needs the right environment and equipment. From New Eltham that is about 25 minutes by car, and New Eltham station is close to a direct train to Forest Hill.

Acid Peels in New Eltham — FAQs
Will a chemical peel make my skin peel visibly?
Not always. Lighter peels cause little or no visible flaking; deeper peels can cause a few days of dryness and light peeling. We tell you exactly what to expect for the strength we recommend.
How far is the salon from New Eltham?
About 5.3 miles — about 25 minutes by car. We are on Devonshire Road in Forest Hill, SE23, a few minutes' walk from Forest Hill station, which has direct trains from New Eltham. Appointments are by booking only, so there is never a wait when you arrive.
Do I need a patch test?
Yes, for your first peel with us. It is free and takes a few minutes, and it means we can treat you safely.
Do you do home visits in New Eltham?
Yes, for many of our treatments — spray tanning, massage, waxing, lashes, manicures and pedicures and more. Travel to New Eltham is £20. Treatments that need the salon environment, such as microneedling, peels and injections, are salon-only.
How many peels will I need?
One peel gives a noticeable brightening. For pigmentation, texture or breakouts, a course of three to six, two to four weeks apart, gives the best result.
Do you cover all of SE9?
Yes — every part of SE9, and the neighbouring areas of Eltham, Falconwood, Sidcup and Chislehurst. For home visits the travel fee is the same across the whole area.
Can I go in the sun after a peel?
Avoid direct sun for at least a week and wear SPF daily — your skin is more sensitive to UV after a peel. We will go through full aftercare with you.
How do I book from New Eltham?
Book online at any time through our booking page, or call 07803 285619. Evening appointments are available most weekdays and we open on Sundays. Out-of-hours and festive-season bookings carry a small surcharge.
Are peels suitable for darker skin tones?
Yes, with the right acid and strength. We have plenty of experience treating darker skin safely and choose peels that will not cause post-inflammatory pigmentation.
Do I need a patch test?
For lash extensions, tints, peels, BB Glow and a few other treatments, yes — at least 24 hours before your first appointment. Patch tests are free at the salon, and we can post a kit to New Eltham if that is easier.
