Is it possible to lose ten years with peeling? Yes, but not all types are equally effective. We will show you which procedure is suitable for skin rejuvenation.
What is an anti-aging peel?
Honestly, any peeling is rejuvenating, because this procedure forces the skin to replace old cells with new ones. Of course, new and fresh looks better than old and dull. But among the large number of varieties of peeling, there are some options that are especially good for aging skin. That is, among other things, they have a lifting effect.
Varieties according to the depth of influence
Aging skin, marked by wrinkles and age spots, which has lost its elasticity and tone, needs a rather deep effect - a course of medium peels that act on living cells, and not on the scales of the skin. dead
Exfoliation, like peeling an apple, removes a layer of damaged cells from the skin. Peeling, which gives a pronounced result, requires some sacrifices.
- Causes peeling.
- Provides a recovery period. You may need to take a few days off work.
- For care after peeling, you should stock up on special products.
However, the success of the event depends not only on the depth of the impact, but also on the chosen peeling agent. As for deep peels, they are unpopular nowadays due to increased trauma, a large number of side effects and risks. They are being successfully replaced by more subtle techniques.
Choosing a technique for an antiaging procedure
Modern cosmetology offers several procedures that are performed in beauty salons or clinics.
Glycolic peeling
The most popular peeling, which is used for any problem. If you don't like something about the condition of your skin, we sign up for a glycolic peel. Glycolic acid deservedly received this recognition. It perfectly renews the skin and eliminates imperfections, making it smooth, radiant and hydrated.
The most surprising thing is that glycolic acid indirectly stimulates the production of collagen, that is, it affects the framework of the skin, restoring its elasticity and density. This is why the glycolic peel is called "remodeling".
Peeling with trichloroacetic acid
Classic medium peeling. Trichloroacetic acid is considered the best for deep penetration into the skin. It causes visible damage and large skin - a few days after the procedure, crusts form on the face and the skin begins to peel. Yes, this is not the most pleasant period to endure. The main thing is not to tear the crusts, do not touch them and let the skin remove them by itself.
Peeling with trichloroacetic acid causes peeling of large plaques. Patience will be rewarded - the skin will become radiant, smooth and tight after the first procedure. Perhaps this will be the end of the matter. But for deep wrinkles (as well as after acne), the average peeling should be repeated.
Peeling with retinol (retinoic).
In addition to the yellow color, it is famous for the fact that it does not damage the upper layer of the epidermis, but acts on the basal layer, stimulating cell division. New cells rise to the top in bulk, replacing the surface layers. Peeling does not always happen - it all depends on the specific composition of the peeling. But improvement of skin turgor and lifting are guaranteed.
Laser photothermolysis
This is fractional laser peeling, which at one time made a revolution in hardware cosmetology. The effect is very close to the result of the average peeling, although the principle of action is different. It is not the chemical agent that damages the skin, but the laser. It is evenly "stitched" with thousands of laser microneedles at a strictly specified depth.
Due to the fact that living, intact tissue remains between the damaged areas, the skin is restored quite quickly, without undesirable consequences.
Laser photothermolysis successfully replaced the traumatic laser resurfacing and the acid peel got me going. Peeling, as well as redness and swelling (with deep enough exposure) cannot be avoided. But the result is amazing!
Is it possible to do anti-aging peeling at home?
The assortment of cosmetic brands includes formulas containing acids: fruit, salicylic and retinol. Use them as directed. Lotions, night creams and concentrates - there are enough options, and they give a great effect for cosmetics at home. But we do not recommend that you pretend to be a cosmetologist and apply compositions that professionals work with on your face. Is it dangerous?
Without special skills, you can provoke contact dermatitis even with a minimal concentration of acids in the composition
