A well-known plastic surgeon, author of a series of hybrid phenol peels and scientific director of Skin Tech Pharma Group Philippe Despres gave an exclusive interview for estet-portal.com at the IMCAS World Congress – Aesthetic Surgery & Cosmetic Dermatology.
Professor Despres spoke especially for the readers of the portal about new trends in aesthetic medicine and explained on what basis acid peeling should be selected for a particular patient. This cosmetic procedure is very traumatic for the skin, on the one hand, and highly effective, on the other. This means that the doctor must responsibly approach the issue of choosing funds.
What are the current trends in aesthetic medicine
F.D. I think the most current trend today – it is, first of all, gentle care. Doctors prefer to use a complex of less traumatic procedures. This is due to the fact that the effectiveness of their combined use is not inferior to the results of more traumatic care procedures. In this case, recovery will take less time. The patient should experience less stress and the procedure is more comfortable and painless.
Also, one of the reasons for the formation of such a trend – lower risk of side effects. Along with the pronounced result of the procedures, we must strive to reduce trauma. In this I see a global trend in aesthetic medicine.
If we talk about acid peeling, which type do you prefer
F.D. I have been using acid peels for over 30 years and prefer products that I have developed myself. During my work, I had the opportunity to improve the composition of various types of peels (from superficial to the deepest).
Therefore, I choose the peel that best suits a particular patient, based on indications, skin type, the presence or absence of a pathological process, and the expected result. Today we have a wide range of peels, which means that a specialist can choose a product, focusing on the individual characteristics of the patient.
Why Controlled Skin Injury Can Be Good
F.D. Actually, this is the essence of peels. In fact, what we need to do is cause a controlled damage to the skin that extends a little deeper than the layer in which the problem occurs. For example, if a specialist wants to correct a problem at the level of the epidermis – he needs to get to the basal layer; if the problem was formed at the level of the basal layer – the doctor needs to get to a deeper layer, that is, we always penetrate a little deeper.
Acid peeling – it is not only a method to achieve the desired result, but also the ability to control the occurrence of side effects.
