Skin Renewal aesthetic clinics offer a range of chemical peels tailored to different skin needs and goals:
Superficial chemical peels, the gentlest form, use mild acids such as AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid), BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid) or Glycolic Acid, to name a few. These peels are designed to remove only the outermost layer of the epidermis, making them a non-invasive option with minimal recovery time.
Superficial peels effectively improve:
These peels are safe for almost all skin types and tones, although individuals with darker skin should be aware of the potential for hypopigmentation. Superficial peels are not recommended for those with active skin infections, open wounds, or recent sunburns.
For more intensive needs, treatments like Skin Renewal Fractional Fusion, CO2 Laser, and Cutera Pearl™ Fractional Laser target:

Skin renewal Morningside is absolutely the best. I’m so happy with the service and the friendly and welcoming staff (the ladies at the front desk and the doctors). I started my journey with the clinic in February this year. My skin is looking the best it has ever looked. To my therapist, Prudence, thank you for doing a great job on my skin, for encouraging me to stick to my treatment plan and for explaining what each treatment entails and what to expect treatment. I am very happy and never look back.
MoreAn absolutely magical experience. I consulted with Dr Graham on the day, who was knowledgeable and extremely kind. My treatment was completed by Therapist Cari who talked me through the process the entire time. My treatment plan was sent through the next day, addressing all my concerns and my appointments confirmed for the rest of the year.
MoreI am just very thankful to have found Skin Renewal Fourways! I haven’t been to the other branches, so I’m going to talk about the Fourways branch. I was nervous at first because I had never done skin treatments at a facility before… but wow, am I glad I have started. I got to know about Skin Renewal from my GP, so that says a lot! I’m now four treatments in, and I feel good and excited for what’s to come after I’m done with my 6 treatments! I think the most important part of my journey with skin renewal is the trust I am fostering with them. From the professional way they approach things… not just dealing with your skin but also recommending herbal supplements and lifestyle habits that aid your healing journey holistically; to the gentleness of the staff and also the cleanliness of the establishment. My skin therapist doing my monthly treatments is Soné! Oh my goodness, Soné is the sweetest ever. She’s calming, proactive, reassuring and kind. She has great instincts. She advised me to stay consistent, and that has stuck with me! I also feel safe with her and I think that’s very important in the journey. Dr Shannon is my consulting doctor, and wow, is she just so sweet? For my first consultation (the only one so far), she was patient, listened to everything I shared and responded with compassion and professionalism! She never forced me to make drastic changes, and that made me feel comfortable to ease into things… now I am only using the products she prescribed, and I feel and see the difference. The products are gentle yet effective. The thoughtfulness of the Skin Renewal staff has helped with alleviating my initial anxieties, and, I believe, is also helping in how I am responding to the process…
