ZO® Stimulator Peel

What is the ZO® Stimulator Peel?

The ZO® Stimulator Peel is a gentle, non-invasive chemical peel developed by Dr. Zein Obagi. Often called the “Red Carpet Peel,” this treatment delivers instant skin radiance without peeling or downtime. It uses a combination of exfoliating acids and antioxidants to refresh the skin, making it a favourite for anyone wanting a quick glow-up before an event or a busy week.

How Does It Work?

The procedure involves the following steps:

• Cleansing: Deep cleansing to remove impurities and prep the skin.
• Exfoliation: A gentle polish removes dead skin cells to enhance peel effectiveness.
• Peel Application: AHA blend (lactic, salicylic, citric acids) is applied to exfoliate and stimulate renewal.
• Neutralization: The peel is neutralized to stop acid activity and restore pH balance.
• Hydration: A calming moisturiser is applied to nourish the skin.
• Sun Protection: Broad-spectrum SPF is used to protect the skin post-treatment.

Total treatment time is typically 30 to 45 minutes.
