Enzyme peels use natural enzymes from fruits like papaya and pumpkin to dissolve dead skin cells, without the sting of an acid peel.
It is a good place to start if your skin is sensitive, or if you want brighter skin before an event without any flaking.

Enzyme Peel: frequently asked questions
How is an enzyme peel different from a chemical peel?
Enzymes dissolve only the dead cells on the surface, so it is gentler, with no stinging or peeling. Chemical peels work deeper and suit more stubborn concerns.
Can I get it before a wedding?
Yes. It is one of the safest options 2 to 5 days before an event.
Does an enzyme peel remove tan?
It gives a mild brightening effect. For deeper tan, a chemical peel or laser toning works better.
