Peeling procedures designed to exfoliate the epithelium and stimulate the regenerative processes in the skin have both advantages and disadvantages in facial care. The undoubted main advantage of the peeling procedure can be considered the stimulation of neocollagenesis and the synthesis of hyaluronic acid, the renewal of the epidermis, which gives a visible rejuvenating effect. The disadvantage of the procedure is the forced recovery period after peeling, which slows down the return patient to everyday life and largely depends on the individual characteristics of his skin. Read about how peelings can be combined with mesotherapy procedures and what effect to expect from this combination, read on estet-portal.com.
Why competent rehabilitation after peeling is important
The greatest interest among patients of cosmetology clinics is usually superficial peelings using AHA acids. This is explained, on the one hand, by a purely psychological moment – the name "fruit acids" as part of a peeling solution, for many, it is associated with the naturalness of the components and sounds soothing. On the other hand, most of the cosmetologist's patients, for various reasons, are not ready for deep interventions in their own appearance and prefer to limit themselves to the epidermal level of correction of age-related changes.
Superficial peeling is a chemical damage to the epithelium, resulting in
- cells of the stratum corneum are exfoliated,
- increases hydration and renewal of the epidermis,
- stimulates the proliferation of fibroblasts in the dermis and the synthesis of hyaluronic acid.
Typically, various types of acids are combined in a superficial peeling composition, performing differentiated functions.
For example, glycolic acid intensively destroys intercellular bonds at the level of the epidermis and stimulates exfoliation, kojic and phytic acids are able to inactivate the tyrosinase enzyme, preventing hyperpigmentation, have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity.
As a result of controlled acid exposure powerful stimulation of regenerative cellular processes occurs on the skin, lipid metabolism is normalized, areas with hyperpigmentation are lightened, and the activation of dermal fibroblasts contributes to skin tightening. Such a strong effect on the skin requires special attention to post-peel rehabilitation. The use of mesotherapy after peeling can significantly alleviate the discomfort of the patient in the process of skin healing and speed up the completion of the recovery period.
Peculiarities of mesotherapy after peeling
Mesotherapy will help to increase the effectiveness of peeling. The mesococktail is injected into the dermal layer, which is not damaged during superficial peeling. The composition of the meso-cocktail includes the following active ingredients:
- hyaluronic acid – preferably high molecular weight as it has a longer catabolism period and stays in the dermis for a long time providing a moisturizing effect;
- minerals – sodium and potassium regulate water metabolism, acid-base balance, magnesium prevents the manifestation of allergic reactions, calcium activates the synthesis of prostaglandins;
- amino acids – necessary for the construction of protein structures of the dermis, neocollagenesis;
- venotonics – strengthen and tone capillary walls, stimulate drainage, improve tissue trophism, accelerate the excretion of cellular metabolic products;
- DMAE – participates in the processes of cell division and differentiation, regulates the synthesis of anti-inflammatory elements, collagen;
- vitamins – affect the proliferation of keratinocytes, reduce the intensity of inflammation, stimulate the synthesis of collagen, reduce the production of melanin, accelerate regeneration processes.
Mesotherapy is recommended to be carried out on the fourth day after peeling, the combined effect on the skin significantly enhances its regenerative functions due to additionally introduced active components.
The combined use of peeling and mesotherapy is becoming the method of choice for preventing skin aging and eliminating hyperpigmentation. The result of such an integrated approach is accelerated skin regeneration, improvement of its color and elasticity, and a pronounced lifting effect.
