Get to Know OC Peels

OC Peels are tailored chemical peels designed by the Ocean team to match your individual skin concerns and downtime comfort. Rather than one peel for everyone, we select from a range of gentle to more intensive formulas to support clearer, smoother and more radiant looking skin.

At Ocean Cosmetics in Perth, your peel plan is doctor led. We talk through what bothers you most whether it is dullness, breakouts, pigment or fine lines and examine your skin closely. Your peel is then chosen and adjusted for your skin type, lifestyle and any upcoming events.

During an OC Peel, a measured solution is applied to clean skin for a set time. You may feel warmth, tingling or tightness as it works on the surface and upper layers. Some peels are very light and give a quick refresh. Others go a little deeper and create more visible peeling in the days that follow.

Treatable Concerns

Helps lift away surface build up so skin looks brighter and more even in everyday light.

Supports smoother texture and can soften the look of fine, superficial lines over time.

In suitable skins, can help manage congestion, blackheads and post breakout marks as part of a broader acne plan.

Certain peels can target the appearance of sun spots, uneven pigment and blotchiness, combined with strict sun care.

Can refine the look of enlarged pores and support a more balanced skin feel on the T zone or across the face.

Ideal for

This treatment is ideal for people who feel their skin looks dull, uneven, congested or finely lined and who want more than skincare alone but are not ready for strong laser or resurfacing. It suits clients who are comfortable with the idea of mild to moderate redness or flaking and who understand that pigment and texture changes improve gradually.

OC Peels are best for individuals who can commit to a series of treatments, daily sun protection and consistent home care. Suitability for different skin types and tones is always confirmed at consultation, taking into account your medical history, medications, pigmentation risk and long term goals.

Treatment Journey

our journey begins with a doctor or dermal clinician consultation. We discuss your concerns, current skincare and previous treatments and review your medical history. Your skin is examined for sensitivity, pigment pattern and congestion. Together we decide whether OCC Peels are appropriate and which peel types and strengths are best suited to you.

  • You may be asked to pause strong active skincare such as retinoids, exfoliating acids and scrubs for a set period before your peel.

  • Keep the treatment area free from open cuts, cold sores, active infections or irritated rashes.

  • Avoid recent tanning, sunburn or self tan on the areas to be treated.

  • Arrive with clean skin and no makeup, heavy skincare or fragrance on the face.

  • Let your clinician know about any new medications, pregnancy or breastfeeding and recent cosmetic procedures.

  • We will explain which type of OC Peel you are having, how it feels and whether to expect visible peeling in the days afterwards.
  • Mild redness, warmth or tightness is common and usually settles within hours to a couple of days, depending on peel strength.

  • Some peels cause light flaking while others can create more obvious peeling or dryness for a few days. Do not pick, peel or scratch at the skin.

  • Use gentle, hydrating skincare and barrier supportive products as recommended. Avoid scrubs, waxing, strong acids and retinoids until your clinician advises they can be restarted.

  • Wear daily broad spectrum sunscreen and avoid direct sun, hot showers, saunas and intense exercise during the early recovery period.

  • If your skin feels more sensitive than expected or you notice unusual darkening, paleness or discomfort, contact the clinic promptly.

  • Attend review appointments so we can monitor your response, adjust peel strength if needed and plan your next sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

OC Peels are a range of tailored chemical peels designed by the Ocean team to match your individual skin type, concerns and downtime comfort. Instead of a one size fits all formula, your clinician selects and adjusts the peel to suit your skin on the day.

OC Peels can help with dullness, uneven texture, congestion, breakouts, post inflammatory marks, fine lines and certain types of pigmentation and sun damage, in suitable clients. Your specific plan is mapped out at consultation.

OC Peels are best suited to people who want clearer, smoother and more radiant looking skin and are comfortable with mild to moderate downtime. They may not be suitable if you are very sensitive, recently sunburnt or have certain medical conditions, which is why a doctor led assessment is important.

Many clients start with a series of three to six peels spaced several weeks apart, followed by maintenance as advised. The number of sessions depends on your concerns, peel strength and how your skin responds.

You may feel tingling, warmth or a spicy sensation while the peel is on the skin. This usually lasts a few minutes and then settles as the peel is neutralised or removed. Stronger peels can feel more intense, but are closely monitored by your clinician.

Downtime ranges from almost none with very light peels to several days of redness, tightness and visible peeling with stronger peels. Your clinician will guide you on what to expect for your specific peel before you go ahead.

Many people notice a fresher, smoother look once any initial redness or peeling settles. Pigment, congestion and fine line changes build gradually across your treatment course and with ongoing sun protection and skincare.

OC Peels can be adapted for many skin types and tones, but not every peel suits every skin. Extra care is taken in pigment prone and sensitive skins. Your doctor or clinician will select conservative options and a careful prep plan if a peel is appropriate for you.

Yes. OC Peels are often combined over time with light based therapies, hydrating treatments, RF or laser, but not all on the same day. Your doctor will design a sequence that supports both safety and long term skin health.

After an OC Peel, keep your skincare simple and soothing, avoid picking at flaking skin and follow the product plan provided by your clinician. Daily broad spectrum sunscreen is essential to protect your results and reduce the risk of pigment change.
