Skin Peels Training, Peeling is an accelerated form of exfoliation induced by various agents, resulting in the controlled destruction of portions of the epidermis and/or dermis with subsequent regeneration of new tissue. Chemical Peels have been used for years to create softer and smoother skin. A chemical peel involves the application of highly specialised acids and/or enzymes to remove the outermost layers of dead skin cells causing superficial peeling and exfoliation.
There are many chemical peel choices – and with all the options that are available, the decision can be daunting.
There are several types of chemical peels ranging in strength from mildly superficial to deeply resurfacing; alpha hydroxy acid peels (AHA), beta hydroxy acid peels (BHA), retinoic acid peels, trichloroacetic acid peels (TCA), and phenol peels.
Superficial Skin peels training
Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) are usually derived from citric citrus fruits, glycolic from sugar cane, lactic from fermented milk, malic from apples and tartaric from grapes. Glycolic and lactic acid are the two most commonly applied. AHAs are the mildest of all chemical peels used to treat very fine lines, dry and dehydrated skin, mild skin and pigment irregularities and acne.
Lactic acid has a very large molecular structure, is very hydrating and brightening to the skin. Glycolic acid has the smallest molecular structure, penetrating quickly and deeper. It is a commonly used, multi-functional acid varying in strengths, usually between 15, 20, 30, 50 and 70%, which provides many skin benefits.
Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) are lipid-based and the most widely used acid is salicylic. Ideal for oily skin types, helping to control oil production, on acne-prone and congested skin. Salicylic acid has anti-inflammatory properties, which can reduce redness and irritation from breakouts. Clients with sensitivity to aspirin are contraindicated for the use of salicylic acid.
Medium to Medium-Deep Peels
Trichloroacetic Acid Peels (TCA) is probably the most used acid for a medium depth peel, available in different strengths and combinations. TCA peels are a great choice for advanced pigment irregularities, sun damage, deeper wrinkles, and acne scars. Depending on the strength and percentage used, TCA can be classified as a medium-deep chemical peel.
Deep Skin peels training
Phenol peels, also known as carbolic acid, is the strongest chemical peel solution. Phenol peels are very powerful and can provide dramatic facial rejuvenation with long-lasting results. In some cases, they may only be administered once in a lifetime.
