Why Winter? It’s All About Timing
With less sun exposure and more time spent indoors, Nelson winters provides ideal conditions for skin renewal. After a summer filled with UV rays, sunscreen build-up, and long days outdoors, your skin may feel a little rough, congested, or uneven.

Enter: Skin peels — a gentle, professional way to restore your glow from the inside out. Because your skin is more sensitive to the sun after a peel, winter’s softer light allows for healing and regeneration without the worry of sun-related irritation.
What Do Skin Peels Actually Do?
A chemical peel gently removes dull, dead skin cells from your skin's surface. This process boosts cell turnover, stimulates collagen production, and reveals smoother, clearer, more even-toned skin beneath. Think of it as giving your skin a fresh start.
At Luminous Skin, our peels are tailored to your specific skin type and concerns—there’s no one-size-fits-all approach here. We select the perfect formula based on your skin’s condition and your personal goals.

Why Combine a Skin Peel with Microneedling?
If you want to elevate your skincare this winter, combining a chemical peel with microneedling is an effective way to achieve long-lasting, glowing results.
Here’s why they work together:
The skin peel prepares the skin by removing dead cells, helping the microneedling device glide smoothly and penetrate more effectively. Microneedling then stimulates your skin’s natural collagen production, improving texture, tone, and elasticity from deep within.
Together, they create a perfect blend of surface renewal and deep regeneration, leaving your skin firmer, brighter, and more resilient.
