Frequently asked questions about the I-Peel-L Bespoke treatment

Our approach to the I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments

At Dr Nerina Wilkinson + Associates, our approach is bespoke and tailored to solve your specific concerns.

Before any I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments, patients undergo a comprehensive examination, including a VISIA Skin Analysis and a consultation with a Skincare Specialist. This enables us to create a customized, results-driven treatment plan and track progress effectively.

Our expert team upholds Dr Nerina Wilkinson’s high standards, consistently delivering remarkable results using cutting-edge devices and products. We spare no expense in providing a safe and luxurious environment to address all your skincare needs.

Each I-Peel-L Bespoke treatment is meticulously crafted, focusing on an individual’s specific concerns and desired outcomes.

How do I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments work?

I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments combine two powerful procedures, Lumecca IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments and TCA chemical peels, to achieve faster and more dramatic results in just a single session. This innovative approach is especially beneficial for those with severe sun damage.

LUMECCA™ IPL is a light therapy that targets facial veins, sun spots, mottled pigmentation, and discolouration on the face, neck, chest, and hands. The heat generated by IPL stimulates collagen production, improving the skin’s texture and quality.

The TCA chemical peel is a medical-grade peel that incorporates gentle fruit acids for even penetration and cellular turnover stimulation. The patented Post Peel Mask, rich in antioxidants, accelerates the healing process, protects against environmental aggressors, and prevents skin darkening.

Together, these treatments provide remarkable improvements in skin health, texture, and appearance by addressing various skin concerns.

Who is the ideal candidate for the I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments?

The ideal candidate for I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments is someone with severe sun damage, including sun spots, mottled pigmentation, and discoloration. These treatments are designed to address skin concerns on the face, neck, chest, and hands. Candidates should be prepared to follow pre-treatment guidelines and aftercare instructions to maximize the treatment’s effectiveness and achieve the best possible results for their skin’s health, texture, and appearance.

Which areas can be treated with I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments?

The face, neck, chest and hands.

How are I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments performed?

I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments are completed over four steps and begin with a skin surface prep (cleanse) to ensure optimal treatment results. Next, Lumecca IPL administration targets facial veins, sun spots, and discolouration. The SkinTech Easy TCA Pain Control Peel is then applied to encourage cellular turnover. Finally, a Post Peel Cream is applied to aid the healing process and protect the skin, completing the comprehensive and tailored treatment process.

What are the benefits of I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments?

I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments offer numerous benefits, including stimulation of cell regeneration, reduction in acne scarring, and resurfacing the skin for a healthy and smooth complexion. They also improve skin texture and tone, diminish fine lines and wrinkles, and address sun damage. After assessing your skin 4 weeks post-treatment, your specialist may recommend further combination therapy or individual treatments such as IPL or a chemical peel.

How long does it take to see results from I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments?

After an I-Peel-L Treatment, your skin may have a slight glow and feel comfortable. However, it will feel dry and tight for the first few days, with possible swelling and darkened areas. Physical peeling typically begins on day 4 and lasts 3 to 6 days. It’s essential not to apply extra moisturizer, as it may hinder the treatment’s effectiveness. Results become visible within 1-2 weeks after the treatment, with continued improvement over the following weeks. When treating the neck, chest, and hands, the healing process takes 2 to 3 weeks, meaning treatment intervals will be longer compared to the face.

How many treatments do you need to complete a full I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments?

A full I-Peel-L Treatment may show significant results after just one session, as it combines IPL and Skin Tech Easy TCA Pain Control Peel. However, it is crucial to assess the skin 4 weeks after the first treatment to determine if further combination therapy is necessary. Depending on your skin’s regeneration rate, you may only require IPL or a chemical peel on its own.

How long does it take to perform I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments?

I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments typically take between 90 to 120 minutes to perform, depending on the specific areas being treated. This allows for a thorough and precise application of the treatment to effectively address your skin concerns.

How long is the recovery period for I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments?

The recovery period for I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments varies depending on the area treated. After the treatment, your skin may feel dry and tight for the first few days. Physical peeling typically begins on day 4 and continues for 3 to 6 days. When treating the neck, chest, and hands, the healing process takes 2 to 3 weeks, meaning the treatment interval will be longer than for the face.

What does an I-Peel-L Bespoke treatment cost?

The cost of an I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments treatment varies depending on the area being treated and the number of sessions required. Pricing is as follows:

  • I-Peel-L Bespoke (Face / Neck / Chest): R 4 500
  • I-Peel-L Bespoke (Face & Neck / Chest): R 5 800
  • I-Peel-L Bespoke (Face, Neck & Chest): R 6 300
  • Diamond I-Peel-L Bespoke (includes Face, Neck, Chest & Hands): R 8 890

Is an I-Peel-L Bespoke treatment safe?

I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments are considered safe when performed by a qualified Skincare Specialist in a clean, medical environment. By adhering to these conditions, the risks associated with the treatment diminish significantly, ensuring a more secure and effective experience for the patient.

What are the possible risks and complications associated with I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments?

When performed by a qualified Skincare Specialist in a clean, medical environment, the risks of I-Peel-L Bespoke treatments are significantly reduced. However, potential risks and side effects may include:

  • Fever blister outbreaks in individuals prone to them

It is important to inform your Skincare Specialist if you have a history of fever blisters, as a fever blister medication needs to be started 3 days before the treatment prevents HZ activation.

  • Rare adverse effects such as severe post-treatment erythema, sterile pustules, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, severe skin peeling, and crusting. 
  • Prolonged photosensitization and severe erythema lasting up to 7 days post-treatment

While the majority of people do not experience these complications, it is important to be aware of these risks and discuss them with your Skincare Specialist in advance.

I-Peel-L Bespoke treatment: Before and After

We are passionate about providing results-driven skincare solutions tailored to each client’s unique needs.

Proper preparation and post-treatment care are essential for achieving the desired outcome.

Testimonials

“I have spent too much money over the past 10 years in hope to sort out my pigmentation and skin texture. Visited many (un)professionals and bought the most mediocre skincare. I heard about Dr Nerina via a friend. My last hope and the best decision I made. I was introduced to the Me Line peel and their skincare…this is now my go to as my skin has never looked this good and healthy ever. Extremely professional team, Bianca was my therapist. If you are looking for skin changing results and are serious about proper skincare, you should visit them. It’s worth all the money you will spend. An investment worth it…”

“Every day I look in the mirror, I can’t believe that this new skin in mine! I reached a point in my life where I thought that I would have to live with the consequences of the severe sun damage I have caused myself through years of surfing. Not only have you given me new skin Nerina, you have actually given me a new life.”
