Botanical resurfacing
A professional botanical resurfacing treatment, and an alternative to traditional acid-based chemical peels. Three levels, from a gentle refresh to a full skin reset.
How it works
Herbs2Peel, also known as Herbal Aktiv Peel, is a professional botanical resurfacing treatment. A blend of dried, granulated herbs is massaged into the skin to exfoliate it and slough away dead skin, revealing smoother, brighter-looking skin.
According to its manufacturer, ALEX COSMETIC, the herbal blend is formulated without chemical additives, synthetic abrasives or binding agents. It comes in three levels, so we can match the intensity to your skin and to how much downtime you can have.
Results vary from person to person. Most people see the best results over a series of treatments.
Three levels
Each level is stronger than the last, with more visible peeling and a longer recovery. The C Peel has its own aftercare. Your therapist will recommend where to start.
Level 1 · Gentle
An entry-level herbal facial that usually causes no visible peeling, so it can suit you before an event. It refreshes the complexion and preps your skin for future treatments.
Level 2 · Moderate
The bridge between the B and C Peels, with the strength tailored to your concerns. Its downtime is closest to a mild chemical peel or microneedling, so it suits clients who aren’t keen on needles.
Level 3 · Intensive
A complete resurfacing treatment for a full skin reset and more stubborn concerns, with a full shed of the skin. We work up to it with a skincare routine first, and you’ll need a consultation or your therapist’s clearance before your first C Peel. The $750 price includes post-treatment samples and the day-5 enzyme treatment.

FAQs
Herbs2Peel is a professional botanical resurfacing treatment and an alternative to traditional acid-based chemical peels. A blend of herbs is massaged into the skin to exfoliate it, for a smoother, brighter-looking complexion. How much your skin peels depends on the level you have.
It suits most skin types, including sensitive skin, and the three strengths let us tailor it to your skin and concerns. We confirm suitability at your consultation.
It depends on the concerns we’re treating. Frequency varies by peel level, skin goals and treatment plan: B Peel every 1–4 weeks, P Peel every 2–4 weeks and C Peel every 4–6 weeks.
It depends on the level. The B Peel usually causes no visible peeling. The P Peel can bring some redness or mild flaking, which usually settles within a few days. The C Peel involves about five days of visible recovery, depending on how your skin responds.
If you’re not a fan of needles, the P Peel is the closest option in terms of downtime. Your therapist can talk you through it.
Only if your therapist has already cleared you for it. Otherwise, book a consultation first so we can check your skin and plan your preparation.
