By harnessing the potent power of Glycolic acid, the Dermapure Signature Peel powered by Functionalab accelerates cell turnover, reducing fine lines and photodamage, while delivering exfoliation and hydration for a radiant finish in 30 minutes! Thanks to Functionalab’s Professional Glycolic Peel Slow-Release technology, the active ingredients maintain their potency in the skin for a longer period, resulting in greater efficacy when compared to other professional peels.
While Dermapure Signature Peel delivers visible results, it’s important to note that outcomes may vary for each individual. Therefore, the images shown are for illustrative purposes only and do not guarantee specific results. At Dermapure, our highly qualified team of physicians, nurses and skin experts are committed to tailoring the treatment to enhance your natural beauty.
The Dermapure Signature Peel is a medical-grade treatment using glycolic acid to exfoliate a thin layer of dead skin cells. This chemical peel is available in several locations within the Dermapure network in Toronto, as part of a broader approach to long-term skin health.
Glycolic acid (AHA), derived from sugarcane or fruit acids, acts on both the surface and deeper layers of the skin. It dissolves dry skin cells and residual buildup that may interfere with oxygenation and hydration. The treatment is non-invasive and can be integrated into a customized skincare strategy focused on texture, clarity and skin maintenance.
The chemical peel treatment is formulated to suit different skin types and is supported by Functionlab’s slow-release technology. This gradual absorption process helps reduce the risk of irritation while allowing active ingredients to work more effectively over time.
The most popular treatment area for a Dermapure Signature Peel is the face, but it can also be applied to the neck and chest areas.
The procedure is performed in clinic, and it takes only 30 minutes. Localized redness or tightness, as well as some scaling are to be expected in the 24 hours following the procedure.
Removing surface impurities and all traces of makeup are the first steps in a glycolic acid peel treatment. It’s important to start off with a clean canvas—the treatment area is wiped down with a gauze pad pre-soaked in alcohol to remove any oily film from the surface.
Before starting, your technician will apply a protective balm to sensitive areas and provide you with eye protection.
The technician will use a brush to carefully apply the liquid glycolic acid solution over the entire surface of the treated area. The first peel is always applied at a lower 20% concentration. This concentration may be increased to 30% in follow-up sessions, if recommended by the technician. You may feel a slight tingling sensation on your skin as the glycolic acid’s exfoliating action takes effect. This is perfectly normal.
The glycolic acid solution is left on your skin for about five minutes to allow it to react. This may vary slightly depending on the degree of skin reaction and the concentration used. The technician will set a timer and will monitor your skin closely for any visible signs of reaction during the procedure.
The exfoliating process can be stopped easily with cold water. The technician gently rinses the treatment area with a clear water compress to neutralize the product. The skin is instantly soothed.
As a final touch, the skin is hydrated using a combination of high-performance anti-aging products. Now is the perfect time to discuss your at-home skincare routine with your technician, who can recommend adjustments tailored to your specific skin needs.
Treatment prices vary based on your individual needs and the specific procedure performed. To learn more about pricing, we invite you to contact your clinic or schedule a consultation with our experts.
Dermapure Signature Peel is a skin maintenance treatment. For optimal results, a Dermapure Signature Peel should be scheduled every change of season. We also recommend 5 to 6 follow-up sessions, performed every two weeks to remove several layers of dead skin cells and improve skin tone and texture.
Pregnant or breast-feeding women should postpone treatment. Particular attention is necessary for individuals with very sensitive skin and naturally darker skin types V and VI.
