Peeling: Before the treatment
Before the peeling, it is important that you have not had any exposure to the sun for 4 to 6 weeks. In addition, we advise not to use self tanning 1 week prior to the treatment.
Treatments
Glycolic Acid Peeling 50-70%
Glycolic acid consists of AHA (alpha hydroxy acids), these are small molecules that penetrate the skin and target the damaged skin cells. This peeling can be used for impure skin, coarse pores or superficial pigment. The choice of the intensity of the peeling depends on the desired result and skin capacity.
TCA Peeling
A TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid) Peeling is a deep chemical peeling that helps improve the skin structure, evens out the skin complexion and reduces imperfections. This peeling can be used for deeper pigment, coarse skin structure, fine lines and has an anti-aging effect. It improves the skin condition by stimulating the production of young new skin cells.
After the treatment
After the peeling, your skin may be a bit red and feel a bit tight. A few days after the treatment, the skin will ‘crack’ after which you will shed for a few days. After molting, the skin can be a bit dry, it is important to moisturize your skin well. The skin needs an average of a week to recover, to promote this process we recommend moisturizing products and it is important to use an SPF.
Results
Depending on the strength of the peeling, the interval varies from 4-8 weeks. Be advised by one of our skin therapists to draw up a treatment plan.
