Deepen your skin knowledge. Refine your technique. Elevate your practice.

Expand your understanding of professional skin treatments with our Chemical Peel Masterclass at Emerge Aesthetics. Designed for suitably qualified practitioners looking to develop their knowledge of chemical exfoliation, this masterclass explores the science behind chemical peels, product selection and the clinical considerations involved in delivering personalised skin treatments.

Chemical peels use carefully selected chemical exfoliants to encourage controlled exfoliation of the skin. Depending on the formulation, strength and depth of the peel, they may help improve the appearance of uneven skin tone, dullness, congestion, fine lines and certain types of pigmentation. Appropriate product selection and patient assessment are essential, as different peels have different indications, risks and recovery requirements.

At Emerge, we believe effective skin treatments begin with understanding the skin itself. Our training focuses on informed treatment planning, responsible product use and maintaining skin integrity throughout the treatment and recovery process.

What will you learn?

• Skin anatomy and physiology – understand the skin barrier, epidermal renewal, skin types and the processes involved in exfoliation.

• Chemical peel science – explore how different exfoliating acids work and how formulations can vary in their effects on the skin.

• Peel types and ingredients – develop your understanding of commonly used acids, their properties, indications and limitations.

• Patient consultation and assessment – take an appropriate medical history, assess skin condition, identify contraindications and manage expectations.

• Treatment selection and planning – consider how to select an appropriate peel based on individual skin concerns, suitability and the manufacturer's guidance.

• Treatment protocols – understand skin preparation, application principles, treatment monitoring and product-specific instructions.

• Complication awareness and risk management – recognise potential adverse effects, including irritation, burns, pigmentary changes and scarring, and understand appropriate escalation.

• Aftercare and skin recovery – learn about barrier support, moisturisation, sun protection and when to reintroduce active skincare ingredients.

• Treatment outcomes and review – understand realistic expectations, recovery timelines and the importance of documenting and reviewing results.

What will you gain?

This masterclass is designed to strengthen your understanding of chemical peels and help you make more informed decisions when incorporating them into your treatment offering.

You’ll develop greater knowledge of exfoliating ingredients, peel selection, patient suitability and treatment planning. You’ll also explore how to recognise potential risks, support the skin barrier and provide appropriate aftercare to help minimise complications.

Where included in the course format, practical demonstrations or supervised learning may provide opportunities to explore application techniques and discuss treatment considerations with your trainer.

Our aim is to help you approach chemical peel treatments with greater knowledge, sound clinical judgement and a clear focus on patient safety.

Why train with Emerge Aesthetics?
