Chemical peeling uses acidic chemicals to dissolve the dead skin layer and the aged stratum corneum on the skin surface, and at the same time promote the growth of new stratum corneum of the skin to achieve a renewed effect.
The acids used are mainly divided into two types: AHA and BHA. BHA is more powerful and suitable for men or guests with thick skin, or for the skin of the back and arms.
Chemical peel is mainly for dull skin tones, yellowing, blackheads, oily skin and acne marks. In addition, it is also suitable for treatment of rough skin and keratosis pilaris on the hands and back (It is like sandpaper on skin). Rough grainy skins can also be improved by chemical peel.
Our therapist and specialist will assess the skin condition before each treatment session to see if chemical peel is suitable. Chemical peel cannot be done for sunburned skin or right after tanning or heavy sun exposure.
Our therapist will Cleanse the skin thoroughly before treatment.
Our therapist will apply different concentrations of AHA/BHA directly to the area to be treated, and after an appropriate time, the AHA will be neutralized with a neutralizing solution. During the treatment process, there will be a stingy feeling of the skin, which is a normal reaction.
After the treatment, the skin will be slightly reddened and slightly peeled, It usually goes away shortly afterwards.
You will need to pay special attention to sun protection after treatment as the skin is softer and prone to tanning/ sunburn. The clinic will provide appropriate product recommendations. In addition, the skin will be relatively dry and need some special moisturizing products.
