Professional Peels As Skin Brightening Options
Salon International|May 2018

The skin is the body’s largest organ and is made up of millions of cells, and thousands of new cells replace old, dead ones on a daily basis.

Professional Peels As Skin Brightening Options

However, with age and due to certain environmental and lifestyle factors this process begins to slow down. This leads to layers of dead cells that accumulate on the skin’s surface, which in turn make the skin look uneven, darker than usual, and dull. A professional peel is a procedure that removes these dead and damaged upper skin layers to smoothen and refine the skin’s texture. It leaves the skin looking smoother, healthier, plumper and tighter. These peels speed up skin cell turnover essentially making them work as skin resurfacing and exfoliation agents. Peels also promote the generation of collagen in the skin. These peeling agents are Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) formed from various naturally occurring substances such as, milk, fruits, sugarcane, and others. Based on the concentration of the peeling agents, they can be divided into three levels – a mild peel to improve the skin’s texture, medium peel to treat acne and stubborn scars, and deep peel to treat flat as well as pitted acne scars and address pigmentation. A safe, non-toxic gel based solution is applied to the skin that gently exfoliates or resurfaces the skin, removing the damaged top layers.
