Obagi Blue Peel Radiance

What is the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance?

The Obagi Blue Peel RADIANCE® is a superficial salicylic acid-based chemical peel, expertly crafted to resurface the skin by removing damaged outer layers and encouraging cell turnover. This advanced formulation combines:

20% Salicylic Acid – a beta-hydroxy acid that deeply penetrates pores, reduces breakouts, and refines texture

1.6% Glycolic Acid – an alpha-hydroxy acid that enhances exfoliation and supports collagen renewal

1.4% Lactic Acid – a gentle exfoliant that hydrates while brightening uneven tone

The result is a radiant, refreshed complexion, often visible after just one treatment, with cumulative benefits when performed as a series.

What are benefits of the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance?

This treatment has been clinically formulated to address a broad range of common skin concerns:

• Improves fine lines and superficial wrinkles

• Smooths uneven skin texture and tone

• Brightens dull, tired-looking skin

• Visibly reduces signs of sun damage and photoaging

• Minimizes acne breakouts and refines pore appearance

• Targets pigmentation irregularities, including melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

Who is the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance for?

The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is suitable for most patients because it is a gentle, superficial peel that requires minimal downtime. It is inclusive of all Fitzpatrick skin types, however a professional skin consultation is needed to assess the suitability of patients with sensitive skin or active conditions such as eczema or rosacea.

Those who would benefit the most are:

• Normal to oily skin types

• Individuals with mild to moderate photoaging

• Patients managing acne-prone skin

• Those seeking preventative or corrective anti-aging treatment

What should you expect when you have an Obagi Blue Peel Radiance with us?

Before your appointment:

No special preparation is needed, however, 5 - 7 days prior to undergoing your peel, you must refrain from certain treatments, such as laser hair removal, waxing and electrolysis. This is to reduce the chances of irritation on your skin. You must also temporarily stop using certain skincare actives during this time. This includes depilatory creams, retinoids and exfoliants.

Pre-appointment you will be asked to complete an online medical form.   This is to make sure that you are medically suitable for the procedure and that there are no medical contraindications.

Your consultation:

During your consultation, Dr. Caroline will discuss your medical form in person, and discuss the treatment in more detail. She will assess your skin and address any questions or concerns that you might have. If you are medically suitable and you are happy to proceed with the treatment, we will then ask you to read and sign a consent form.

During your treatment:

If you are wearing any makeup, this will be removed prior to the treatment. Dr. Caroline will place vaseline over the delicate under-eye area and around the nose and top lip. This is to protect these sensitive areas during the peel. It is safe to use the Obagi peel if you have a beard, however, we will also protect the eyebrows for those patients who may have had them microbladed.

The treatment is relatively quick, lasting approximately 20 - 30 minutes. A first ‘pass’ is conducted across your skin, using gauze and left on for 2 minutes. During this you will likely experience a mild tingling sensation, or a feeling of warmth. Based on your Fitzpatrick skin type and how well your skin tolerates the peel, we may then do a second or third pass.

The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is a self-neutralising peel. The end point for this peel is a light ‘pseudo-frosting’ across the skin. After the treatment we will apply the Obagi Sun Shield Broadspectrum SPF 50 in either the Cool/ Warm Tint (depending on your natural undertones), to protect your skin from UVA/UVB post-peel.

Post-Treatment:

Mild redness and light flaking may occur and typically resolve within 3–7 days. Downtime is minimal and makeup can usually be worn the next day.

What is the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance Aftercare Care?

To optimise results and protect your renewed skin:

• Avoid active skincare ingredients (retinol, exfoliants) for 3–5 days

• Use a gentle, non-stripping cleanser and barrier-repair moisturiser such as the Obagi Skin Barrier Recovery Cream

• Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50+ daily to protect from post-peel sensitivity

• Do not pick or peel flaking skin

• Stay well-hydrated to support your skin’s recovery

How many sessions of the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance will I need?

The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance Facial delivers tighter, smoother, brighter-looking skin after just 1 use. A series of 4 - 6 peels spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart however, provides the most optimal and longer-lasting results. The number of sessions you choose to have is customisable to support a treatment plan based on your unique skin needs.

Why choose the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance?

Whether preparing for a special occasion or integrating it into a long-term skin rejuvenation plan, the Obagi Blue Peel Radiance offers a visible improvement to your skin after just one session and luxurious yet effective way to maintain youthful, radiant skin.
