What it is
A peel for skin that's both reactive and breaking out.
Some skins fall into a difficult middle ground — blemish-prone, but also red, reactive, or quick to flare. Stronger peels can clear the breakouts and worsen the redness; gentler peels calm the redness without doing enough on the congestion.
AzeAc is built specifically for that middle ground. The formulation pairs azelaic acid — well-known for its ability to calm both blemishes and redness — with supporting actives that work gently on congestion. The result is a peel that addresses both concerns at once, without choosing between them.
Skin walks out calmer, clearer, and quietly settled in a way that more aggressive peels don't deliver.
What it's for
Where AzeAc fits.
This peel earns its place where the skin is asking for two things at once — clarity and calm.
02
Rosacea-adjacent concerns
Background redness, broken capillaries, sensitive skin with occasional spots. AzeAc supports both the calm and the clarity.
03
Post-inflammatory marks
The dark or red marks left after blemishes settle. Azelaic is known for evening these gently over a course.
What to expect
A calm, focused 45 minutes.
AzeAc is one of our most well-tolerated peels — even reactive skin tends to settle into it without protest.
01
The consultation
We look carefully at the skin — paying particular attention to redness patterns, reactivity history, and any prescribed topicals you're using. AzeAc is often the right answer where stronger peels aren't, and the consult is where we confirm that.
02
The treatment
About 45 minutes. Careful cleanse, prep, layered application. The sensation is mild — usually a soft warmth rather than the tingling of stronger peels.
03
The aftercare
Almost no downtime. The skin may look softly flushed for a few hours; some clients see mild flaking by day two or three. Simple protocol — gentle cleansing, hydrating moisturiser, daily SPF, no actives for 48 hours.
Frequency & rhythm
A patient course is the work.
Reactive, blemish-prone skin asks for a patient course — usually three to five sessions, two to three weeks apart. Pushing harder or faster tends to set the redness back, so we don't.
After the initial course, maintenance is typically every six to eight weeks, often alternated with our H2Glow facial for ongoing calm.
Many clients use AzeAc alongside a prescribed home protocol, and we'll discuss that fully at the consultation.
Suitability
Reactive skin asks for a careful conversation — and we always begin there.
AzeAc suits most blemish-prone or reactive skin types. Pregnancy, severe rosacea flares, recent procedures and certain prescription medications change the plan. We assess thoroughly at the consultation and adjust the protocol — or recommend a different treatment — when needed.
