This focused half-day course provides practitioners with the knowledge and practical skills required to safely assess, select and perform professional chemical peel treatments.
Delegates will explore different types and strengths of chemical peels, how they interact with the skin, appropriate indications, patient selection, contraindications, skin preparation, treatment protocols, neutralisation where required, aftercare and complication management.
Training will cover the use of chemical peels for concerns including pigmentation, acne, photoageing, fine lines, texture and general skin rejuvenation, with an emphasis on selecting the appropriate peel for the individual patient.
The course includes extensive hands-on training with live models, helping delegates develop confidence in skin assessment, peel selection and safe clinical application.
Chemical Peel Training
Chemical Peel training introduces the principles required to safely assess and treat patients using professional chemical peel treatments. Training includes:
- Skin anatomy and barrier function
- Principles of chemical exfoliation
- Understanding different peel types
- Peel depth and strength
- Patient assessment
- Fitzpatrick skin typing
- Patient selection
- Indications and contraindications
- Product-selection principles
- Skin preparation
- Treatment application
- Treatment timing
- Clinical endpoints
- Neutralisation where appropriate
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation risk
- Complication prevention
- Aftercare
- Treatment intervals
- Managing patient expectations
Delegates will learn that different peel formulations, strengths and ingredients require different approaches and should be selected according to the individual patient rather than following one universal protocol.
Skin Assessment & Treatment Planning
Good skin treatment begins with assessment. Delegates will develop a structured approach to evaluating:
- Skin type
- Skin condition
- Primary patient concerns
- Medical history
- Previous treatments
- Pigmentation risk
- Barrier health
- Sensitivity
- Treatment expectations
- Appropriate treatment intensity
- Appropriate treatment sequencing
Particular emphasis is placed on identifying patients who may be at increased risk of irritation, pigmentary change or other adverse outcomes.
Practical Live-Model Training
A significant proportion of the face-to-face session is dedicated to practical treatment. Delegates will participate in:
- Consultation
- Skin assessment
- Patient selection
- Clinical photography
- Treatment planning
- Chemical Peel treatment
- Product and treatment selection
- Identifying appropriate clinical endpoints
- Aftercare
- Documentation
Training is delivered within a supportive small-group environment with close supervision and individual feedback. The aim is not simply to complete the procedure, but to understand why the treatment has been selected and how it should be adapted to the individual patient.

Frequently asked
Your questions
Are chemical peels taught with microneedling?
No. Chemical Peels and Microneedling are separate courses, each with their own learning outcomes, practical training and certification. They are sometimes scheduled on the same date as two distinct half-day sessions, so you can book either on its own or take both together.
Is there online learning before the course?
Yes. Delegates complete structured online pre-learning before attending the Academy, so face-to-face time can be spent on assessment, treatment planning and supervised practice.
How long is the face-to-face training?
The practical session typically runs from 1:00pm until 4:00pm.
Where does training take place?
Training is delivered at Aesthetic Precision Medical Training Academy in Ramsgate, Kent.
Will I treat live models?
Yes. Supervised live-model treatment forms an important part of the practical training. The exact treatments performed will depend upon model suitability and individual clinical assessment.
