The principle of chemical peeling with acids

The principle of chemical peeling with acids is based on the effect of an acid on various skin structures:

• acids in chemical peels affect desmosomes – bridges between cells, as a result of which the latter dissolve and dead skin cells are exfoliated;
• when the upper stratum corneum is destroyed, the cells of the lower one begin to divide, thus, the acids stimulate cell regeneration;
• an increase in the thickness of the dermis as a result of cell division makes the skin firmer and more elastic, and also helps to smooth out wrinkles;
• acids stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, ceramides and hyaluronic acid;
• acids attract water molecules and deliver them to the epidermis;
• acids cleanse pores and normalize the functioning of the sebaceous glands, reducing skin oiliness and preventing the development of acne;
• in addition, acids provide antioxidant protection and even inhibit melanin synthesis, brightening the skin.

Course of chemical peeling with acids

Chemical peeling with acids gives a good effect already after the first procedure: the skin becomes cleaner, acquires a beautiful shade, the severity of skin imperfections decreases, it looks healthier. But the maximum effect can be achieved only after a course of procedures. How often should a patient be recommended a chemical peel with acids? It is best to conduct a peeling course once a year in the autumn-winter period. Standard Course – these are 10-12 procedures with an interval of 7-10 days, depending on the patient's skin type. Chemical peels, especially superficial ones, have a cumulative effect, so the maximum result can be seen only after the completion of the course of procedures.

Preparation  and fixing the results of chemical peeling with acids

In order to ensure the maximum effect of chemical peels with acids, it is important to prepare the skin before starting the course of procedures, and properly fix the result after. The patient's skin should get used to the effects of acids, therefore, 2 weeks before the start of the peeling course, the patient should be advised to use cosmetics with a small percentage of acids – 6-12%, as well as a fairly high pH. Within two weeks after the end of the course, the patient should use & nbsp; the same means, which will effectively help to consolidate the result.

Chemical peeling with acids helps to effectively cleanse the skin and solve a wide range of skin problems, but only an experienced specialist can perform the procedure effectively and safely.
