Peeling gel with glycolic acid 10% Profi 5ml, 120 ml | Pleyana

Glycolic acid can exist in pure form or can be partially diluted. Peeling with glycolic acid in its pure form has a very strong effect and can even cause epidermolysis with serious consequences, so chemical peeling procedures using acid in this form must be performed very carefully and professionally.

The depth of the glycolic peel depends on

• the concentration used,
• pH,
• procedure time,
• the amount of substance deposited per unit surface,
• from combination with other substances
• and the condition of the skin that is undergoing the procedure.

The higher the acid concentration and lower the pH, the greater the power of the acid.

How many procedures are needed

To obtain the expected and lasting effect, it is necessary to perform a series of at least 4, and preferably 8 procedures with an interval of 14 days. This course of treatment can be repeated twice a year.

To reduce the risk of complications, the first treatments in a series should be at lower acid concentrations. Particular care should be taken with dry skin and prone to telangiectasia (dilated blood vessels). Chemical peels performed with glycolic acid are safe, and the risk of complications and side effects after it is very small (however, the higher the concentration of acid, the more the risk increases). With high acid concentrations and low pH, there is a risk of side effects, i.e. irritation, inflammation, pigmentation disorders, crusting, and even scars. Therefore, it is so important that the procedure is performed by professional cosmetologists. Diluted glycolic acid works more gently (of course, this depends on the proportions). The duration of the facial peeling procedure with glycolic acid is from 1 to 10 minutes.

Bionics has different concentrations and pH of glycolic acid, the most commonly used are: 35%, 50%, 70%, and their pH ranges from 1.6 to 0.6.

35% — 2.8 pH 45% — 2.0 pH 55% — 1.0 pH 70% — 0.5 pH

Of course, the choice of acid concentration is determined by the cosmetologist individually. At low pH, glycolic acid stimulates exfoliation and cell renewal; at higher pH, it only provides a moisturizing effect. Glycolic acid comes in two forms: gel (it works more gently, the acid is released gradually, is well tolerated by people with sensitive skin or acne), and causes only mild irritation. An aqueous solution of glycolic acid is very quickly absorbed by the stratum corneum of the skin. This form of glycolic acid peel is used for people who require intensive skin cleansing.

Glycolic facial peeling with a concentration of 20% and 35% is used for superficial exfoliation, the procedure should be repeated in several stages with an interval of 14 days. This type of peeling allows you to restore radiance and a fresh look to the skin (increases tone, elasticity, eliminates fine wrinkles and excessive dryness of the skin). It is also performed to thoroughly cleanse the skin.

And glycolic peels with a concentration of 50% and 70% exfoliate the deep layers of the skin, showing a strong and quick effect.

Due to the possibility of the appearance of age spots, peeling is not recommended in the summer. This type of peeling can be performed on people with any skin phototype, as well as people with dry and sensitive skin (of course, the concentration should be lower, the pH higher, a mild acid formula is also important).

Peeling gel with glycolic acid 10% Profi 5ml, 120 ml | Pleyana

Pleyana – Profi Peeling gel with glycolic acid 10%. - This is a peeling containing glycolic acid, the anti-aging properties of which were known about half a century ago.

Glycolic acid is found in sugar cane and green grapes. Glycolic acid rejuvenates the skin and minimizes hyperpigmentation.

Rejuvenation of the epidermis is the main goal of glycolic peel therapy.

Using a 10% glycolic peel avoids epidermolysis (flaking, which usually occurs after procedures of this type) - it is a gentle peel, but very effective.

The upper layer of the epidermis is renewed, as well as the basement membrane and mesoderm, because Glycolic acid stimulates fibroblasts to actively produce collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans, resulting in increased skin turgor and elasticity, and the skin is significantly rejuvenated.

10% glycolic peeling is one of the most convenient and comfortable options for gentle peeling. Acting on collagen and elastin fibers, glycolic acid leads to their retraction (compression), which gives a good lifting effect. Thus, all layers of the skin are renewed.

glycolic peeling procedure is desirable and indicated for almost everyone with the aim of smoothing the skin texture, eliminating “sun wrinkles”, biostimulating and moisturizing the skin.

It is especially effective and timely to perform a glycolic peeling , in particular gentle glycolic peeling in the autumn-winter period, when the sun is not so active on the skin.

general description

Glycolic, or aliphatic hydroxy acid, has long been used by cosmetologists because it has irreplaceable properties to accelerate neocollagenesis and destroy the bonds between dead cells. It gently and carefully removes keratinized epidermis and activates the formation of new ones, stimulating the production of collagen and glucosamine (hyaluronic acid).

The procedure provides rejuvenation at the cellular level, prevents aging, polishes and whitens, eliminates pigmentation and reduces the likelihood of acne.

Effectiveness is expressed in:

• Active synthesis of collagen by fibroblasts, which helps smooth out wrinkles and increase skin density.
• Low molecular weight, due to which the substance easily reaches the deep layers of the dermis.
• The ability to penetrate the intercellular space, resulting in its increase and a lifting effect.
• Saturated hydration, which is ensured by restoration of acidity levels and lipid-carbohydrate metabolism.

Buyanov Sergey Yurievich (Expert Doctor):

Hydroxyacetic (glycolic) acid is widely used in dermatology in the treatment of hyperkeratosis, seborrhea (dandruff), ichthyosis, and photoaging. Recommended for dry skin.

How does the procedure work?

Peeling based on glycolic acid is carried out in several successive stages and requires preliminary preparation.

Initially, the facial skin is cleansed and degreased, then a solution or gel containing glycolic acid is applied to it and left for the required amount of time.

Then, the drug is removed with a special neutralizing solution.

At the end of the procedure, a protective moisturizer is applied to the face. To achieve the desired result, it is necessary to undergo a full course of therapy, including from three to ten procedures. The final decision on their number is made by the cosmetologist after a preliminary examination of the patient.

To avoid unforeseen situations, the patient should refrain from visiting baths and saunas, solariums, and sunbathing for one week after glycolic peeling. It is also necessary to use protective equipment prescribed by a cosmetologist, which will not only eliminate the risk of complications, but also enhance the effect of the procedure.

Types of peeling

Cleansing with glycolic acid differs in the degree of impact, i.e. concentration of the main active substance. An experienced cosmetologist can assess the condition of your skin and choose the right care option.

It is not recommended to work with highly concentrated compounds on your own at home. Incompetent actions can lead to serious negative consequences.

Surface

It is performed with acid, the percentage of which does not exceed 40. The pH level of acidity can range from 2.5 to 4.5. Works in the top layer without penetrating into the thickness of the tissue.

Gently exfoliates the epidermis, smoothes the texture, improves the color and texture of the face.

• Suitable for young girls with problematic and inflamed dermis with increased sebum production. Made at home in summer and spring.
• Care can also be carried out as preparation before a more serious procedure.

Median

Acid is used in a concentration of 50 to 70%.

Indications for use: pronounced folds, scars, acne, hyperkeratosis, excess pigmentation, expression lines and uneven skin tone.

The result is especially noticeable on dry, lifeless skin that needs nutrition and hydration, as well as excessively oily skin.

The rejuvenating effect is achieved through increased blood circulation and normalization of keratinization processes (death and keratinization of cells).

Deep

It is performed exclusively in an outpatient clinic by a dermatocosmetologist or plastic surgeon.

The acid concentration is 70%, so complications often appear: burns, red spots, pimples, brown crusts, severe peeling and pain.

Rehabilitation takes time and compliance with care conditions. However, a long and painful recovery ends with complete tissue regeneration and visual rejuvenation.

Sometimes the procedure is necessary as preparation for plastic surgery.
