Answer: Good afternoon,

Thank you for getting in touch.

I have checked with one of our practitioners regarding your enquiry. Typically chemical peels would not be the first recommended treatment for Actinic Keratosis. There may be alternative topical ways to treat you however this would all be discussed during your consultation once the practitioner has a chance to examine your skin. If you would like to book in for a consultation we would recommend you booked in to see Dr Lauren for a skin consultation. This can be done via our website or by giving the clinic a call.

Kind Regards,
Lisa
Patient Coordinator

Answer: Hi,
Actinic keratoses (also called solar keratoses) are best treated by electro-micro surgery, as peels do not remove these lesions.

For a free email consultation and price to remove them, please find our contact information on our profile

Answer: Hi Dave. Thanks for your enquiry. Chemical peels don’t really help actinic keratosis. Cryotherapy could be used to treat them. Have you and then diagnosed as such by your GP.

At Finesse Skin Clinic we would always recommend a face to face consultation to discuss your requirements. This is beneficial and will enable you to see the clinic and its clean professional treatment environment and of course to meet your practitioner.

How does this sound to you?

Answer: Hi Dave,

Thank you for your enquiry.

Chemical peels can be suitable for sun damage, however, to provide you with the right solution we would need to book you in for a consultation with our skin consultant. What email or telephone number can we reach you on?

All the best wishes,
