Regenerating and resurfacing your skin.
On a cellular level, the skin has a natural turnover cycle which slows with age. This leads to the skin’s appearance looking lack lustre as collagen levels become depleted and the top layer of the skin, the epidermis thins making the layer underneath, the dermis, more susceptible to UV exposure. This results in pigmentation, wrinkles, textural changes and dryness of the skin.
In treating the cell turnover, by using certain ingredients and treatments, skin clinicians can stimulate both the epidermis and the dermis.
One of the more advanced peels available is a TCA peel.
This peel uses an active ingredient called trichloracetic acid. When applied to the skin, TCA peels exfoliate the skin over the course of several days, exposing a refreshed layer of skin underneath.
A TCA peel will exfoliate deeper into the dermis than a salicylic acid or glycolic acid peel. Being much more potent the treatment offers longer lasting results.
Australian Skin Face Body has a range of professional medical grade TCA peels of varying strengths that are delivering exceptional results for patients. The popular Dermaceutic Cosmo peel includes a powerful combination of medical grade ingredients which combats the signs of advanced ageing by assisting with the fading of fine lines and wrinkles.
A TCA peel may also be used for the treatment of scars by stimulating collagen, elastin and cell regeneration. Discolouration such as freckles and irregular skin pigmentation due to sun damage can be improved significantly.
During an advanced skin peel treatment you may feel a tingling and warmth in the treated areas.
Your skin will most likely peel for 2-7 days post treatment. There is generally no pain but the skin looks as if it has a severe sunburn. In no time your skin will be brighter and clearer with a more even complexion.
For best results, the skin is prepared prior to a peel and the treatment is combined with LED therapy.
The Australian Skin Face Body dermal team will tailor the most appropriate peel for you after your consultation and skin analysis.
We also recommend cosmeceuticals to use at home to prepare, optimise and maintain the results of all aesthetic procedures. We will advise what’s best for your skin.
