The All Natural Green Peel
The Green Peel is a completely natural herbal peeling treatment that regenerates the skin, removes acne and lifts pigment away from the skin. It is made up of nine selected herbs containing various enzymes, minerals and vitamins. This mixture is massaged into the skin to treat several skin conditions such as melasma, acne, sun spots and brown age spots.
The treatment stimulates blood circulation and accelerates cell metabolism. This helps to remove acne and pigmentation on the skin to even out skin tone. In addition, the Green Peel helps to reduce fine lines, scars and other skin impurities. The treatment visibly improves the skin’s appearance after one treatment and has minimal downtime. For best results, we recommend a series of three Green Peels.
At FCP Dermatology, our on-site Dermatologist allows for us to customize the Green Peel to each skin type and offer a stronger version if required for enhanced results. This will be discussed during your consultation at FCP Dermatology.

Green Peel Treatment Details
How does the Green Peel work?
The Green Peel consists of nine carefully selected herbs that are blended together to form the mixture (including Camomile, Marigold, Algae, Aloe Vera, Lungwort, Pansy and others). In contrast to other exfoliating treatments, the Green Peel does not contain any chemical or synthetic peeling agents.
The Green Peel herbs have micro-particles that “polish” the upper skin layers (removes the epidermis). The other active ingredients of the herbal preparation will penetrate the skin to destroy acne, stimulate collagen and lift away pigment.
It is recommended to do this treatment when you have a couple of days of downtime, as the skin will be red to pink for up to 3 days. You should avoid sun exposure for 2 weeks after the treatment.
Green Peel Treatment Procedure
What technique is used to perform a Green Peel treatment?
The results are renewed, refreshed and revitalized skin with less acne and more even skin tone. The Green Peel is best done in a series of 3 treatments, spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart.
Before the procedure – Avoid sun exposure and do not use any exfoliating products such as retinol for 2-3 days before the treatment.
During the procedure – No local anesthetic is required. The treatment will take about 1 hour to complete.
After the procedure – Avoid sun exposure for 2 weeks and use sunscreen daily. Avoid strenuous physical activities for the first 24 hours. Soaps are not recommended on the treated area for 24 hours. After a peel the skin can dry out quite a bit, so it is recommended to use a gentle hydrating moisturizer.
