Red Carpet Peel

The Red Carpet Peel is a red carpet prep facial that polishes the skin’s surface, giving it a luminous, even glow. This treatment is specifically formulated to deliver visible results with no downtime. It can be used as a standalone treatment or to improve the look of a clinical peel.

At APT Medical Aesthetics in Oakville, a thorough skin analysis with AURA is central to planning a Red Carpet Peel, with a diagnostic, treatment-first AURA analysis: your clinician uses the AURA 3D Skin Imaging system to measure skin findings, including texture, sebum, pores and pigment — so you can judge your skin and its response over time. That plain, clinical approach is the point: treatments chosen for a reason, not a marketing claim, and adjusted as your skin responds. Find out more about our Safety Standards.

What Is the Red Carpet Peel?

Established in the U.S., the clinical Red Carpet Peel is a light peel that cleanses, exfoliates and rejuvenates the skin in a single session. The St. Petersburg global standard for a facial treatment, this procedure is a shorter, less invasive treatment that uses exfoliating agents and nourishing ingredients to refine the surface of the skin and give it a healthy, luminous look. It uses a blend of medical-grade ingredients that work to cleanse, exfoliate, and firm the skin, leaving a luminous, glowing look.

It’s safe for all skin types and can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dull skin. A deeper version can help target acne scarring, fine lines, wrinkles, acne, uneven skin tone, brown sports and sun damage, uneven skin texture, dark spots and hyperpigmentation, and rosacea.

How Does the Red Carpet Peel Differ From a Traditional Facial?

The Red Carpet Peel utilizes medical-grade ingredients, including 30% lactic acid and potent skin brighteners, to create a blend of exfoliating ingredients. It is a clinical-level treatment that uses stronger ingredients than a regular facial, offering both immediate rejuvenating benefits and long-term skin improvement. A Red Carpet Peel is also more effective at lightening hyperpigmentation, targeting signs of ageing and chronic skin conditions.
