Since 2016, Butterfly Aesthetics has been a trusted provider of non-surgical facial aesthetics and medical-grade skincare in a professional, welcoming environment. Based on clinical expertise and carefully selected, evidence-based treatments, we specialise in helping you achieve healthy, radiant skin with natural-looking results. One of our most popular advanced skin-resurfacing options is the Obagi Blue Peel – a powerful, professional peel designed to transform the look, feel and clarity of your skin.

What Is the Obagi Blue Peel?

The Obagi Blue Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel developed by Obagi, a globally recognised leader in skincare. It is designed to improve skin tone and texture, reduce visible signs of ageing, and address a range of skin concerns such as pigmentation, fine lines and acne scarring.

Unlike many lighter, cosmetic peels, the Obagi Blue Peel is performed under clinical supervision and can be adjusted in strength to suit your unique skin needs, making it both versatile and highly effective.

Key Features and Benefits of the Obagi Blue Peel

Features

  • Medical-grade formulation – uses a controlled concentration of active ingredients for predictable, professional results.
  • Customisable depth – your practitioner can tailor the intensity of the peel depending on your skin type, concerns and goals.
  • Clinically proven brand – backed by years of research and used worldwide by medical skincare professionals.
  • Suitable for a range of concerns – effective on sun damage, uneven skin tone, melasma, fine lines, enlarged pores, rough texture and certain types of scarring.

Benefits

  • Brighter, more even skin tone – helps reduce the appearance of pigmentation, sun spots and discolouration, leaving skin clearer and more uniform.
  • Smoother texture – softens rough, uneven areas and minimises the look of enlarged pores.
  • Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles – stimulates skin renewal to improve the appearance of mild to moderate lines.
  • Improved clarity in blemish‑prone skin – can help refine congested skin and reduce the appearance of post-acne marks.
  • Healthier, more youthful-looking skin – supports overall skin quality for a fresher, more refined complexion.

How the Obagi Blue Peel Works

The Obagi Blue Peel works by applying a carefully controlled solution to the skin, which causes the upper, damaged layers to exfoliate and peel away over several days. This process stimulates cell turnover and reveals fresher, smoother skin beneath.

At Butterfly Aesthetics, your practitioner will begin with a detailed consultation and skin assessment. Once suitability is confirmed, the skin is thoroughly cleansed and prepared. The Obagi Blue Peel solution is then applied in one or more layers, depending on the depth required. You may experience a warm or tingling sensation during application, which typically subsides once the peel is complete.

Over the following days, the treated skin will begin to tighten and peel. This is a normal and expected part of the process. After shedding the top layer, you will notice a clearer, more radiant complexion. Your practitioner will provide specific aftercare instructions, including which skincare products to use and how best to protect your skin as it heals.

How Obagi Blue Peel Complements Other Treatments

Obagi Blue Peel can be an excellent part of a wider, personalised treatment plan at Butterfly Aesthetics.

When timed and combined correctly, it can enhance and maintain the results of other popular treatments:

  • Anti-wrinkle injections – while injectables soften muscle-related lines, Obagi Blue Peel targets surface texture, fine lines and pigmentation, giving a smoother canvas and more youthful overall appearance.
  • Dermal fillers – fillers restore volume and contour, whereas the peel improves skin quality, tone and clarity, helping your results look even more natural and harmonious.
  • Microneedling and collagen induction therapies – after an appropriate interval, Obagi Blue Peel may be used to refine texture and pigmentation, further supporting collagen-stimulating treatments.
  • Medical-grade skincare regimes – Obagi Blue Peel often pairs well with home-care products such as prescription-strength retinoids and pigment-correcting systems (where appropriate), maintaining results and supporting ongoing skin health.

At Butterfly Aesthetics, your practitioner will assess your skin and advise on the safest, most effective way to sequence treatments. Not all procedures can be performed close together, so a structured plan is essential.

From your first consultation onwards, you are guided through each stage of your Obagi Blue Peel journey.
