Information
How it works
Medical peeling is the formulation of active substances, alone or in combination, used in aesthetic medicine to produce a controlled desquamation of the skin.
Peeling derives from the word “peel” which means “to peel”, and that is one of the effects we are looking for with peelings, peeling the skin at different levels from the surface to a greater depth, depending on the aesthetic affectation we want to treat.
We remove some of the layers of the skin, but let’s be calm, they will regenerate and we will discover a skin of better quality and appearance, a skin that was hidden by certain imperfections.
These peelings have different indications according to their composition, and are used by aesthetic physicians to improve skin texture, even skin tone, moisturize, stimulate collagen synthesis, improve active acne and its scars, eliminate or reduce skin blemishes.
As we can see, they have many indications, but we have to know how to choose the right one for our patients’ needs, with the therapeutic concentration, the exact components, knowing which ones we are going to need, how to combine them.
Over the years, peelings have proven their effectiveness as an indispensable tool in our offices, and their usefulness is still valid today, making them an “old” ally when it comes to medical-aesthetic treatments.
