Medical peelings of varying intensity refine the skin's appearance, soften wrinkles naturally or make them disappear. Impurities and acne can also be significantly improved. Depending on the indication, we use superficial or medium-deep peeling procedures. Peeling stimulates skin regeneration and supports the 28-day regeneration cycle.
Pigment spots are lightened with certain peeling procedures and can then be removed more easily by laser.
The peeling strategy is determined by the doctor.
Fruit acid peeling (AHA)
Regular peeling treatments with fruit acid (also known as glycolic acid, alpha hydroxy acid, AHA) can significantly improve the appearance of your skin. The effort involved is minimal. This peel is also known as a lunchtime peel, as you can go back to work immediately after the treatment and do not have to take any downtime into account.
Fruit acids regenerate the transition zone between the cornea and epidermis, stimulate collagen formation in the subcutis (deeper layers of the skin) and lead to an increase in the skin's extracellular matrix. This results in a smoother, firmer and more even skin texture.
What treatment successes can be expected?
- Improvement of skin texture for acne / acne scars, blemished skin and rosacea
- Reduction in pore size and skin refinement
Which peeling concentrations are used? 20%, 35%, 50%, 70%
Pre-treatment necessary? yes, 14 days before starting treatment with special fruit acid cream
How many peelings are required? approx. 6-8 sessions at intervals of 4 weeks
Costs: from 125 €
TCA peeling
The trichloroacetic acid peel (TCA peel) is a medium to deep procedure. TCA peels have the broadest range of indications.
Concentrations of 15 to 25 percent TCA are used, rarely even higher. Depending on the indication, the skin can be pretreated with Jessner's solution before the TCA solution is applied (so-called Monheit peel).
This peeling has a much stronger and deeper effect on the skin than the methods listed above. Peeling and severe reddening of the skin is normal. The healing phase usually takes five to eight days.
