Chemical Peels
Chemical peels aim to support skin renewal by causing controlled exfoliation of the upper skin layers. They may be considered for skin tone, the appearance of pigmentation and tissue quality.
What Are Chemical Peels?
Ingredients such as fruit acids, salicylic acid and TCA act at different depths in chemical peels. Superficial peels are mainly considered for tone and vitality, while medium-depth peels address pigmentation and texture.
The ingredients, depth and session plan are determined according to skin type, goals and season. Because an unsuitable depth or formulation may cause unwanted results, treatment is planned under medical supervision.
How Is the Procedure Performed?
- Assessment. Skin type and goals are assessed, and the ingredients and depth are determined.
- Preparation. The skin is cleaned; preparatory skincare is recommended if needed.
- Treatment. The peeling solution is applied to the skin for a controlled time and neutralized.
- Aftercare and follow-up. Aftercare steps for the peeling process are explained, and sessions continue at the planned intervals.
Who May Be Considered for Treatment?
- People who notice dullness and uneven skin tone
- People who wish to address superficial pigmentation and marks
- People concerned about the appearance of their pores
- People seeking care to support skin renewal
Treatment may be postponed during active skin infection, after recent tanning or with certain medications; suitability is considered during assessment.
After Treatment
Redness and peeling lasting several days may occur after treatment, depending on its depth. Moisturizing without picking or peeling the skin and using sun protection are important during this period; aftercare steps are tailored to the individual.
