Skin Peels
Glycolic peels (light peel)
The treatment process removes the upper dead layer of the skin - the stratum corneum. A solution of glycolic acid is applied to the skin (Glycolic acid is derived from sugar cane and is a natural product) and left for 3-10 minutes, before being washed off and a neutralising solution applied. There will be a slight pinkness to the skin, most people return to a normal skin colour that same day. There really is no recovery period. This is a highly effective medium peel that is well tolerated by the skin. It is applied in 4 weekly sessions. There is no downtime and you can carry on with your activities as normal. A medium peel works in the same way as a mild peel but it simply peels to a deeper level so is suitable for treatment of deeper lines and wrinkles. You can expect some mild swelling and some light peeling (similar to mild sunburn) for 3-5 days. The Easy TCA Skin Peel is designed to treat fine lines, discolouration (melasma), acne, acne scarring and areas on the hands, forearms, neck and décolletage.
