SKIN PEELING

Chemical Skin Peeling
Skin peeling is an accelerated exfoliation of the skin induced by exfoliating agents such as glycolic acid, salicylic acid and fruit enzymes. The depth and results of the peel depends on the strength of the chemical agents used, the type of active ingredients incorporated into the peel, the skin type and the skill of the operator.

Superficial peeling agents cause an increased slough of the outer layers of the skin resulting in a mild to moderate peeling. The superficial peeling will result in skin renewal with the reduction or disappearance of sun damage, pigmentation, acne lesions, fine lines and wrinkles.

Moderate and deeper peels cause removal of the top layer of the skin, inflammation and regeneration of the lower layers. Downtime is more pronounced. With all chemical peels, extreme caution must be taken with home-care to avoid any complications.

Peels can vary greatly in strength, down time and results. With new technologies such as skin needling, the tradition deep medical chemical peels are rarely used today. This is due to the potential side effects and possible skin complication such as hypo pigmentation, permanent skin sensitivity and skin scarring that can occur from these deep resurfacing peels.

Skinstitut peels are made from a variety of potent cosmedical skincare ingredients such as botanical vitamin A, fruit acids and enzymes.

How much down time is there??
This will depend on the type of peel used, the condition of the skin, medication taken and general health and well-being. Certain medications and health issues may be a contra indication to a chemical peel as they can increase adverse side effects.

Mild redness, inflammation, mild to moderate peeling is a usual for 1 – 5 days post peel. The stronger the peel, the more intense the redness, peeling and downtime.

How many treatments will I need?
A skincare consultation is essential prior to a chemical peel to determine the most suitable type of peel and the recommended frequency of treatment. Usually anything from 1 – 6 peels may be recommended.

Do I need to use special products at home?
For the majority of chemical peels, it is essential to thoroughly prepare the skin at home by using good quality skincare products. Skinstitut home-care products are recommended to use at home to maximise skincare results and minimise any adverse reactions pre and post peel such as hyper pigmentation.

Which Peel is best for me?
The choice of peel is dependent on the specific skin concern, skin colour and the health of the skin. At Belle Amari we will advise you which peel is the most appropriate for you. A personalised home care plan will be developed to ensure maximum results and minimum downtime.
