What Are The Types of Chemical Peels?

Chemical Peels involves the application of a safe chemical solution, which targets the deeper layers of the skin. This effective treatment aids in reducing priorities such as acne, pigmentation, appearance of fine lines, dryness and lacklustre skin by performing 3 main functions

1. A deep exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and decongest pores
2. Treats specific priorities such removing toxins, oil, acne causing bacteria and imperfections
3. Stimulates collagen production

A step up from most chemical exfoliants which often contain a single active ingredient, Chemical Peels have been specifically formulated with a tailored combination of acids to effectively target priorities. Best of all, the results are almost immediate!

How Do Chemical Peels Work?

Firstly, the face is cleansed to remove any initial traces of makeup residue, skin products and debris on the face.

Then, a Pre-Peel is applied prior to the peel to effectively lower the skin’s pH level as well as removing all traces of oil, allowing for the even penetration of the skin peeling agent.

Mild Chemical Peels

A major component of this chemical peel is alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) which include lactic and glycolic acids to effectively generate younger replenished skin. The prevention of premature aging skin can be achieved with this chemical peel treatment, popular for those between the ages of 24-35. Sun damaged skin, uneven skin-tone and texture, fine lines and acne are some of many concerns that can be treated with mild AHA chemical peels. As skin is photosensitive after treatment, it is important that a broad spectrum SPF50+ sunscreen is applied frequently. Some side effects of the treatment include flaking, redness, dryness, itching and irritation. These will resolve when several chemical peel treatments are undergone and skin is accustomed to the active ingredients. 

Skin Needling: Pen vs. Roller, which is best?

Which is better when it comes to Skin Needling: Pen vs. Roller? Discover the differences, benefits, and which option is best for your skin.

 

What is skin needling?

Skin Needling is rising in popularity for those in pursuit of the perfect skin. This skin resurfacing treatment is effective on uneven skin, scarring & age lines alike. The needling part refers to the tiny surgical needles, which are used to lightly puncture the skin, breaking down bumps, scar tissue & age lines. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing processes including the natural production of new collagen. The result is a new, smoother skin surface.

 

Skin Needling: Pen vs. Roller. But what holds the needles you ask?

There are two technologies: The DERMAL ROLLER  is a mechanical device with surgical Micro Needles protruding from a wheel. This is rolled up and down the affected area. The upside is the simplicity, the downside is that it can create ‘tearing’ wounds, as the roller moves forward, leading the needle to exit the skin at an angle, which can be quite painful.

 

The  NEEDLING PEN contains surgical micro needles, on a motorised head. Rather rather than using a rolling action, the Dermapen moves the needles in and out at a rate of about 1000 times per second, delivering tiny vertical punctures, creating less trauma to the epidermis. The head can be adjusted to vary the depth to which the needles penetrate the skin.

Treatments for Stretch Marks

A stretch mark is formed when the dermis or surface layer of skin tears, scarring with a light coloured hue. This pulling force occurs from factors such as rapid growth or weight gain and diminishing dermal elasticity. Stretch marks are also known as striae, lineae atrphicae and striae cutis distensae. Here are Treatments for Stretch Marks.
