CHEMICAL PEELING

Surface treatment with an acid solution removes the skin surface layer. Over the course of several treatments, the skin is re-formed, the skin surface is refined, the pores are reduced, colour unification, pigmentation is removed, and the skin is regenerated in overall.

CHEMICAL TRICHLORACETIC ACID PEELING (TCA)

The treatment uses the chemical properties of trichloroacetic acid, which, depending on its concentration and the number of layers applied, causes the skin surface to detach in the form of superficial to medium deep peeling. The following days there is a gradual peeling effect, with the most intense peeling occurring 3-5 days after the procedure. Chemical peeling with TCA is suitable for solving problems with acne and oily skin, reduces enlarged pores, acne scars, smoothes fine wrinkles, rejuvenates aging skin or sun-damaged skin, removes hyperpigmentation. Compared to the chemical peeling of AHA acids, peeling with TCA is more intense.

Course of treatment

After cleansing the skin, a solution of trichloroacetic acid is applied. After peeling the skin should be regularly treated with soothing, healing cream, sun exposure is prohibited and it is necessary to protect the skin with cream with UV filter SPF 50th

Information about the procedure and its effects

The procedure is non-invasive, without prior pre-treatment. Treatments are performed at 7-14 days intervals, one course consisting of 1 to 4 applications. Slight redness disappears within 1-2 hours after application. Gradually over the following days skin peeling occurs, which is most intensive on days 3 to 5, depending on the intensity of treatment. Main areas of application: photoaging, pigment spots, wrinkles, acne, stretch marks

CHEMICAL PEELING BY FRUIT ACIDS (AHA)

The treatment uses the chemical properties of fruit AHA acids (glycolic acid) to peel off the uppermost parts of the skin. Starting with the application of low concentrations of fruit acids, which slowly increase in further treatments.  4-6 sessions are recommended, most often at 2-week intervals. After treatment, the skin is smoother and of higher quality, accelerates its renewal, improves the quality of elastic fibres, hydrates the skin, reduces sebum production, and corrects the keratinization of the skin.

Effects
  • Reduced pores, clarity, improved hydration and elasticity.
  • Smoothing fine wrinkles, reducing pigmentation and colour unification of the skin
  • Reduction of acne and sebum production
Course of treatment

Glycolic acid is a natural substance derived from sugar cane and is used in various concentrations. When treated with chemical peeling, the doctor applies the mixture to the face. Allows reacting for 2-5 minutes, then neutralising with a basic solution. Pre-treatment with 10 to 15% Glycolic Acid Serum is appropriate.

Information about the procedure and its effects

The procedure is non-invasive. Treatments are performed at 14 daily intervals, one course consisting of 1 to 4 applications. Gradually, over the following days, the peeling of the skin, which is most intense on 3rd day, occurs according to the intensity of the treatment. Main areas of application: photoaging, pigment spots, wrinkles, acne, stretch marks

CHEMICAL PEELING BY RETINOL

Modern surface peeling uses the chemical properties of 3% retinol (retinoic acid precursor = vitamin A). Retinol peeling thanks to its patented composition smoothes fine lines and wrinkles, it helps alleviate the symptoms of acne and its consequences (e.g. Acne scars), and strengthens the skin. At the same time, it removes pigment spots and unifies the skin tone. Also, it helps the formation of collagen in the skin and acts directly on hyaluronic acid, which moisturises the skin and gives it volume. Compared to chemical peeling AHA acids, retinol peeling is without pre-treatment. The added value of this procedure is also a slight lifting effect with respect to Aminofil, a derivative of the amino acid that acts to strengthen the skin.

Effects
  • Cleansing the skin, reducing pores, clarifying, improving hydration and elasticity
  • Smoothing fine wrinkles, reducing pigmentation and colour unifying the skin
  • Reduction of acne and sebum production
Course of treatment

For normal skin leave the peeling for 8 hours, for sensitive skin only 3 hours – that is, finish the treatment at home 3 or 8 hours after application, wash with water and apply a moisturising oil to the skin. Subsequently, it is necessary to avoid sunlight and preventively use products with a high UV factor. 2-4 treatments, depending on the skin condition, are recommended at 6-8 week intervals.

Information about treatment

A few days after the application of retinol peeling, the skin tends to dry out; during this natural process the top layer of the skin gradually begins to peel off. Visible peeling will begin to appear from 2nd to 3rd day after treatment and last 3-7 days.
