Chemical Peels

FACIAL REJUVENATION WITH CHEMICAL PEELS
Peeling comes from the word “to peel” which is the English word for peel. The objective of a peeling is to correct the ageing of the skin, pigmentation marks, acne scars, sebhorrea… The skin texture is honed, the complexion clearer and more glowing. Light, average and dark peelings can be made out according to the depth of the skin treated. Effective peeling is not a “super exfoliation” which can be practised at home. The following peels are available at our clinic:

GLYCOLIC ACID PEEL – “Lunchtime peels”.
Glycolic Acid Peel is a naturally occurring organic acid that induce exfoliation and speed cell cycle. The result is smooth, radiant and younger-looking skin. Since this is a superficial peel 4 treatments is needed to see improvement.

Glycolic peel followed by acne extraction minimize scarring. When combined with IPL phototherapy helps to minimize bacterial proliferation and aids in healing.

EASY TCA PEEL: a good appearance rediscovered.
Easy TCA is considered to be the safest and easiest TCA peel. Recommended for the treatment of acne marks and scars, it also gives a spark to tired skin. It is painless and to be repeated four times (once a week). With no interruption to your working life it must done at lunch time.

ENERPEEL : a rejuvenator for eyes and lips
ENERPEEL is a single-use Device consisting of a controlled viscosity monophase gel incorporating a mixture of acids (Qualitative composition of the blend of acids lactic acid and Trichloroacetic acid) within an appropriate applicator recommended for PEELING and REMODELLING the skin of the PERI-OCULAR (eyelids included) and LABIAL (vermilion not included region)

Beneficial to improve crow’s feet, fine lines, lighten hyperpigmented lesions, lighten dark eye circles, improve skin tone and luminescence.

It can improve your cupids bow definition (fuller lips), gives you a rounder fuller total lip shape, accentuating the lip border, resists age related wider lip appearance and lighten melanin moustache.

Why TCA + LA?
The combination of TCA and LA is supported from the use and well known synergistic effect of pre – treatment of skin with AHA or Jessner’s solution before applying the TCA.

Using a combination of these two acids it is possible to achieve effective results using a lower percentage strength of TCA, thus limiting and modulating injury to the skin.

Also it has been demonstrated that LA can modulate melanin biosynthesis independently. This is useful therefore not only in treating the actinic damage, but also in reduce the risk of post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation that can occur after a chemical peel.
