Cornerstone Clinic believes that great skin starts with a strong, healthy foundation. Our Barrier Peel is a mild, medical-grade exfoliating treatment that renews the skin’s surface while preserving and strengthening the natural barrier.
Cornerstone Clinic, located at Grosvenor House, Dubai Marina, offers this advanced, dermatologist-supervised peel to safely treat sensitive, reactive, or impaired skin, resulting in apparent radiance with no discomfort or downtime.
Unlike standard chemical peels, which focus largely on exfoliation, the Barrier Peel repairs and strengthens the skin’s protective layer. This outer layer is the first line of defence against pollutants, dehydration, and environmental stress. When damaged, it can cause redness, dryness, and premature ageing.
The Barrier Peel employs a carefully balanced blend of mild acids, peptides, and moisturising ingredients to gently remove dead skin cells while promoting barrier function. It helps to replenish hydration, reduce inflammation, and promote healthy cell regeneration without producing peeling or irritation.
This treatment is appropriate for patients who experience:
Every Barrier Peel at Cornerstone Clinic is conducted under medical supervision by globally experienced doctors from Italy, the United Kingdom, and Brazil. The treatment starts with a thorough skin assessment to assess moisture, barrier integrity, and general sensitivity.
We only use professionally proven formulas that contain mild alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), niacinamide, and ceramide boosters to gently resurface and restore balance. The procedure includes:
This method offers a perceptible improvement in tone and texture while preserving your skin’s natural defence mechanism.
The Barrier Peel is a gentle, non-aggressive technique that takes about 30 to 40 minutes. During the application, you may experience minor tingling or warmth, which will immediately disappear.
Unlike typical peels, this therapy does not leave noticeable peeling or need downtime. Following the treatment, your skin feels instantaneously smoother, calmer, and more hydrated. Most patients resume normal activities right away, with a healthy, glowing glow that improves over the next few days.
For best effects, a series of Barrier Peels every three to four weeks can gradually strengthen and improve skin resilience.
The Barrier Peel focuses on long-term skin health rather than just exfoliating. Each session improves the skin’s strength, hydration, and radiant appearance.
Key advantages include:
This peel is suitable for all skin types, including rosacea, mild eczema, and post-treatment discomfort.
After your Barrier Peel, your skin will look rejuvenated and radiant. We recommend that you avoid strong exfoliants, active chemicals (such as retinol or acids), and direct sun exposure for 48 hours.
To maintain your effects, use gentle cleansers, moisturising serums, and broad-spectrum sunscreen on a daily basis. To supplement your treatment approach, your doctor or aesthetic specialist may recommend a personalised at-home skincare regimen that includes barrier-repair products.
Cornerstone Clinic combines medical knowledge with a friendly, patient-focused approach. Our internationally recognised specialists focus on treatments that restore balance and safeguard long-term skin health.
We exclusively use quality, clinically approved ingredients that promote skin repair and resilience. To ensure comfort and safety, each Barrier Peel is customised to your specific skin condition and performed in a calm, hygienic, and soothing setting.
If your skin is sensitive, dull, or dry, the Barrier Peel at Cornerstone Clinic, Dubai Marina will help you regain balance and energy. Schedule your consultation today and allow our specialists to create a personalised plan to restore and protect your skin.
Cornerstone Clinic, Dubai Marina combines science and compassion to provide strong, radiant skin.

He’s incredibly caring, professional, and honest — he never recommends anything unnecessary and always prioritizes his patients’ wellbeing. The Cornerstone Clinic team is equally outstanding — from the nurses to the front desk, everyone is kind, attentive, and makes you feel completely at ease. The facility is beautiful, modern, and impeccably maintained. Truly the best clinic in the world — I wouldn’t trust anyone else.Posted on Jaymee Marie YalungTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cornerstone Polyclinic is such a beautiful clinic! They have a wide range of doctors specializing in plastic surgery, dermatology, dentistry, and more. I came for a dermatology treatment and I absolutely loved the results—they made me feel and look beautiful, everything turned out perfect. The clinic is modern, professional, and the staff are very welcoming. Must visit and highly recommended!Posted on SYREN MALINTADTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Honestly, I’ve had such a good experience with Cornerstone Clinic. What I love most is that everything’s in one place, you’ve got aesthetics of course, but also GP, gastro, dental, and more. It just makes life so much easier not having to run around to different clinics for different things. The vibe there is really nice too, everyone’s super friendly and professional, and you feel well taken care of from the moment you walk in. Everything is organised, the doctors actually take the time to explain things, and you can tell they genuinely care. It’s just reassuring to know you can get both your medical and aesthetic needs sorted under one roof. I’d definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a place that’s convenient but also really trustworthy 💯🫶✨Posted on Trisha VazTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The clinic itself is very well run, efficient and the staff were all very polite, helpful and knowledgeable. Dr Richard was excellent. He listened to me and really took onboard my wishes for very natural results. The treatment was painless and I am absolutely thrilled with the results. So natural yet have really rejuvenated me and made me look fresher and younger. If you are after an excellent Doctor, who listens to his patients and is brilliant at his work, then I cannot recommend Dr Devine and the clinic highly enough.Posted on Zainab MalikTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I was so happy with how pain free, effective and professional Maurizo was and the glow and hydration the treatment has given my skin! I would really recommend cornerstonePosted on Carol GlynnTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am an IV drip and Hydrafacial at the Cornerstone Clinic. The whole experience was excellent. The staff were all very professional and friendly. I originally went for the Energy IV drip as I was feeling tired and wanted an energy boost in the lead up to a really busy time. It was so convenient and a nice treat to have the facial at the same time as the drip! I loved the facial too. My skin felt and looked rejuvenated. Will definitely go back for both services again.Posted on Keto by FoxxyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Maurizio has the lightest hand and the best botox technique! I keep getting botox because it helps with my migraines, while enjoying amazing and natural results! Recommend!
