The ingredients contained in cosmetic peels allow you to remove the devitalized skin cells that are deposited on the surface, to get to deeply stimulate the renewal mechanisms of the stratum corneum. Exfoliation with cosmetic peeling therefore restores a smooth, compact and luminous appearance to the skin.
What is it for?
Even in its natural regeneration processes, the skin can be helped with specific treatments and cures, such as cosmetic peels. In fact, the cell renewal process slows down over the years.
Dead cells tend to "stick" to the skin surface and their increased permanence leads to greater opacity with a reduction in the elasticity and overall hydration of the skin. Promoting epidermal turnover not only means promoting the elimination of these devitalized elements, but also stimulating the basal layer to synthesize new cells. After exfoliation, the result is visible: the renewed skin surface regains brightness and improves both softness and the complexion.
, favoring the elimination of devitalized cells, impurities and imperfections.
After exfoliation with a cosmetic peeling, the skin texture is visibly refined and regains its natural brightness, as well as being more receptive to the functional substances present in the moisturizing and nourishing treatments that will be applied later.
A regular frequency in the use of cosmetic peelings allows to keep the skin revitalized and smooth and to relax the facial features.
and regenerate collagen.and scrubs that provide formulation elements that cause microdermabrasion (granules, spherules, very fine powders or salts) to remove the superficial cells in the process of desquamation.
Compared to mechanical exfoliation, cosmetic peeling promotes a deeper effect: in general, these products have keratolytic properties, that is, they reduce the cohesion of the corneocytes by direct action on the junctions between cells (desmosomes). Consequently, the detachment and removal of dead cells that are deposited on surfaces is favored and, at the same time, the renewal mechanisms of the stratum corneum are stimulated.
Cosmetic peeling also promotes the following skin effects:
- It qualitatively improves the elastic fibers, stimulating the epidermis in depth;
- It exerts an anti-aging action by reducing the visibility of the imperfections associated with skin aging, such as small wrinkles, and smoothes the epidermis;
- Helps minimize hyperchromias, scars and mild acne marks.
What it contains
There are various types of cosmetic peelings: first of all, it should be emphasized that the products for home use (intended, to be clear, for the routine of skincare at home) are different in the quantity and quality of the functional substances present in outpatient treatments, used exclusively by medical staff.
Peelings are also characterized by a different depth of action, that is, by a more or less invasive intensity of exfoliation; this depends on the active ingredient with which the treatment is carried out, on its concentration and on the defined pH. The so-called medium or deep peelings are normally carried out in the medical-aesthetic field, as the skin exfoliation is very marked and requires specific precautions. The cosmetic variants for home use are, on the other hand, superficial peelings and involve the "use of substances from the" more delicate action, able to be limited to the exfoliation of the stratum corneum of the epidermis.
