A pampering for your skin: chemical peeling!
WHAT ARE THEY?
They are professional treatments widely used in dermatology and aesthetic medicine, which allow exfoliation (more or less intense) of the skin surface.
The main objective of chemical peeling is to improve the appearance of surface imperfections of various kinds on the skin.
After chemical peeling, the skin generally appears smoother, less wrinkled, more elastic and radiant.
WHAT DO THEY CONTAIN?
Normally, substances are used that can rapidly eliminate dead skin surface cells and stimulate cell turnover.
There are many substances capable of doing this, the most common of which are alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) such as glycolic acid, citric acid and mandelic acid, beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs) such as salicylic acid, also known as fruit acids, substances of natural origin. Another substance is for example retinol, with marked anti-ageing action.
In general, chemical peelings act to improve the quality of the skin, and depending on the substance with which it is carried out, it can have a more pronounced action on blemishes and skin brightness, on texture, on micro-rugosity or have a sebum-regulating action, for oily and acne-prone skin.
WHO DOES IT SERVE?
Everyone! They are excellent as prevention, so even in younger people. Indicated for all levels of photo-aging and in support of the most common skin problems
WHERE IS IT APPLIED?
Usually, the skin areas most commonly treated with the chemical peel technique are: face, neck and back of the hands, but they can also be performed on larger areas such as the back and chest, for example in patients with oily skin with an acne tendency.
NEOSTRATA.....not just dermocosmetics
The founders of NEOSTRATA® (dermatologists Eugene Van Scott and Ruey Yu) are world-renowned for discovering alpha hydroxy acids and Glycolic Acid.
Innovators with over 40 years of experience, they have been researching for over twenty years how important it is for the skin to stimulate the formation of new layers (the ‘neo strata’).
They have therefore developed a complete range of professional superficial chemical peelings, adjuvants in the treatment of the most common skin problems such as dry skin, actinic/seborrheic keratoses and acne, but also active in stimulating the rejuvenation of ageing and photo-damaged skin.
This comprehensive range of peels allows the doctor to safely set up a treatment plan based on the needs of the individual patient depending on their skin type and response to peels.
