MEDICAL PEELING

Peeling regenerates the skin through dermabrasion.

History :

The first peelings were described in papyrus: in ancient Egypt, Egyptians tried to erase skin imperfections by removing wrinkles, scars and pigmentation spots.

Principles :

A peel is a chemical dermabrasion of varying depths, depending on the type of peel. The skin regenerates and becomes more radiant, while imperfections disappear.

The different types of peel :

- Fruit acid peels: glycolic, lactic and mandelic acids.
- Light acid peels: lactic acid and salicylic acid
- Intermediate and deep peels: Trichloroacetic acid and phenol

LIGHT PEELS :

Light peels or "lunch peels" because there is no social eviction, they improve skin radiance.

- Acid used: glycolic acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid
- Session lasts 20 minutes

We recommend 3 sessions over 6 weeks.
The peel can be combined with a mesolift or skin booster.

MEDIUM PEELS :

- Objective: Medium peels are used to treat skin blemishes, old scars, wrinkles and sagging skin.
- Acid used: TCA, this acid has a deeper effect than a simple light peel.

Generally, one session is enough to obtain the desired result, but this type of peel can lead to significant desquamation of the skin, requiring a week's local eviction.
The skin may be a little pink for 3 weeks.

After the peel, the skin is firmer and more even, and spots and wrinkles are reduced or disappear.

Skin preparation is necessary 15 days before the peel.
