Very often we don't pay attention to the health of our back skin until problems arise. But summer comes, and you want to bare your shoulders (or a dress with an open back requires it), then you have to blush because of your negligence in relation to the skin of your back. Try to understand that only the skin of your face requires care. Deep atraumatic back cleansing is a new care procedure. Let's take a closer look at it.
Chemical peeling of hands
Hands are especially susceptible to negative environmental factors, so they show early signs of withering. TCA, AHA, mandelic, lactic and retinoic acids are most often used to peel this area. They stimulate collagen production, moderately lighten hands, increase tissue turgor, smooth out wrinkles, and remove age spots.
The concentration of acids is selected individually. Depending on the severity of skin manifestations, a superficial or median type of procedure is selected. A total of two or three sessions are prescribed at ten-day intervals.
What are the benefits of deep atraumatic back cleansing?
- No mechanical injuries that occur during banal home cleaning with your hands, when you have to press, stretch and even slightly tear the fabric;
- Carrying out a procedure that is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, dry, inflamed, aging skin;
- Minimum contraindications (cleaning can be carried out even with progressive rosacea);
- Ridding the epidermis of comedones, pustules (pimples or blackheads), relieving inflammatory processes in certain areas;
- No traces after the procedure (redness disappears in a matter of hours);
- Instant transformation of the skin after cleansing, that is, you don’t have to wait until the skin becomes perfect.
Interestingly, a small concentration of acids makes the procedure painless and does not cause inconvenience. With atraumatic back cleansing, you can only feel a slight tingling sensation if the skin is hypersensitive. Please note that cleaning with acids does not risk spreading infection to the skin. At least, the anti-inflammatory result of cleaning is great, as evidenced by the rapid disappearance of redness.
It is of great importance that the procedure can be performed even in spring and summer. If you have the necessary preparations and knowledge, cleaning can be done at home. Treatment of a certain area of the skin with products is also practiced.
Chemical peeling of the décolleté and neck area
This procedure is carried out in conjunction with a similar facial treatment. Almost all types of peelings are used in the neck and décolleté area:
- surface;
- median;
- deep.
It all depends on the condition of the skin, age and wishes of the client. This procedure helps combat the following problems:
- Deterioration of skin color;
- Foci of hyperpigmentation;
- Photoaging and fading;
- Wrinkles;
- Hyperkeratosis;
- Decreased turgor and sagging tissue.
Causes of acne
There are several main causes of skin rashes on the back.
External reasons
Acne often appears due to wearing clothes that are uncomfortable or made from low-quality materials. The back often sweats, although it is not always noticeable. If clothing does not allow the skin to breathe, irritation occurs, since with this “greenhouse” effect bacteria multiply very quickly.
Pimples can appear due to improper hygiene: washing too often or too rarely, as well as using products that are not suitable for your skin type.
A sure way to skin problems is visiting the solarium too often, where the skin becomes dry.
Acne can be a manifestation of an allergic reaction to components of laundry detergent or body cosmetics.
Internal reasons
The most common internal cause of acne on the back, and indeed on the body in general, are hormonal disorders that occur during pregnancy, taking hormonal medications, in adolescence, as well as when the endocrine, digestive, and genitourinary systems are disrupted.
Stress and decreased immunity also negatively affect the condition of the skin.
Unhealthy diet - fatty, spicy, fried foods - also contribute to the formation of acne.

Types of acne on the body
- Red acne is the result of excessive sebum production or inflammation of the comedonal cavity itself.
- Purulent rashes – lack of timely treatment of acne, which, under the influence of external factors, turns into ulcers.
- Blackheads are comedones that occur due to the accumulation of dust and sebum on the skin, which is prone to oiliness. Subcutaneous inflammation can occur if the pores are clogged with scales and all the dirt cannot get out.
Chemical peeling of feet
To carry out this procedure, cosmetologists most often use lactic or one of the fruit acids, which have the ability to penetrate deep into the tissues without damaging them. This is very important, because the legs (especially the feet) have to be treated to great depth in order to remove calluses, rough areas and corns.
No less popular is the use of various acid mixes . With their help, you can additionally refresh the skin, make it more tender, youthful, and eliminate inflammation. This simple technique allows you to reduce the number of procedures, making them more effective.
Salicylic peeling is excellent for removing ingrown hairs on the calves. It relieves inflammation and removes areas of epithelium covering ingrown hairs. The product is rubbed into the skin with light massage movements. After a few sessions, the hairs can be easily removed.
Where to begin?
If you want to do laser carbon peeling, the first thing you need to do is visit a doctor for a consultation. To achieve maximum effect, it is recommended to take a course, which usually includes up to 4-5 procedures every one to two weeks, although one-time peeling is also possible, for example, before an important event.
The doctor will tell you about this in more detail after examining the skin, identifying the range of existing problems and hearing from you what result you want to achieve. It should be noted right away that the procedure is not cheap, but the result, if, of course, you complete the entire course, is worth it.
Also, at the first visit, it is necessary to inform the doctor about existing health problems, since the procedure has a number of contraindications. A sensitivity test to the nanogel will also be required to exclude the possibility of an allergic reaction during the cleaning itself.
If the decision to undergo laser carbon peeling is positive, before the procedure it is necessary to abandon any other facial cleansing and the use of products with abrasives.
Chemical back peeling
The epidermis in this area is rougher than on the neck or face, and its thickness varies greatly between individuals. That is why, for chemical peeling of the skin on the back, glycolic acid is used in concentrations and rates individually selected for each patient - from 5 to 70%. Treatment begins with the minimum concentration and ends with the maximum. In total, from six to ten sessions are carried out .
During the procedures, dead skin particles are removed, acne disappears, acne scars are removed, and the functioning of the sebaceous glands is normalized. Due to the activation of metabolic processes, the skin begins to retain moisture better.
Who is recommended for deep atraumatic back cleansing?
It is believed that cleansing should occur independently, i.e. without outside help. The sebaceous glands secrete enough secretion onto the surface of the skin to keep it smooth and soft, and its protective function to work.
Due to the deplorable state of the environment, the influence of ultraviolet radiation, hormone dysfunction and improper care, the condition of the sebaceous glands becomes worse. There is an excess of fat on the skin. If dead cells are not exfoliated in time, they accumulate in the ducts of the sebaceous glands. When exposed to air, fat oxidizes, which causes comedones - the so-called “black spots” - to appear. The source of inflammation is called acne (or scientifically, acne), and such skin is considered problematic.
Cleaning is prescribed for the following cosmetic defects:
- Excessive sebum secretion;
- Increased dryness;
- Enlarged pores;
- Blackheads, pimples;
- The appearance of acne;
- Formation of age spots;
- Photoaging;
- First age wrinkles;
- Aging skin;
- Gray or uneven skin color;
- Uneven skin surface.
Acid solutions have a beneficial effect on skin of any age. In addition, atraumatic back cleansing normalizes the synthesis of your own collagen and elastin fibers, which means that the process of rejuvenation is underway.

Chemical peeling of the abdomen
This procedure is performed to remove stretch marks (striae) formed after childbirth and sudden weight loss. In addition, it makes the skin of the abdomen smoother and more beautiful:
- Stretch marks are removed using deep and midline procedures (Jessner, TCA), since these scar deformities affect the skin far in depth. Such an intervention can only be performed by experienced dermatologists;
- In other cases, a light fruit and milk procedure is enough to refresh and rejuvenate the skin.
Carbon + laser = effective skin cleansing and rejuvenation
This formula really works. What is its essence?
Many people already know about the laser device and its wonderful effect on different layers of the epidermis. If you add an absorbent nanogel based on carbon dioxide - this is carbon - to the laser beam, you will get a wonderful way to get rid of horny skin cells, comedones, skin secretions and stimulate the production of your own collagen and elastin in the epidermis. This, in principle, is the ultimate goal of any skin cleansing.
Chemical peeling of the scalp
In order not to damage the hair follicles, weak solutions of fruit acids are used for chemical peeling of the head: citric, grape, tartaric, malic. They have an antioxidant effect, enhance metabolism, and stimulate hair growth.
Even after several sessions, the positive effects of the procedures become noticeable. After getting rid of toxins, fat and dandruff, oxygen begins to flow to the roots. Metabolism increases, and this has a positive effect on the thickness and root volume of hair. The functioning of the sebaceous glands is normalized, “crusts” disappear from the scalp, and combing becomes easier.
Indications for cleansing the skin in this way
Detailing the information related to carbon peeling, it can be noted that it is effective in the following cases:
- Signs of aging become obvious on the skin: deep wrinkles, sagging, decreased tone.
- The presence of comedones, acne, post-acne is noted - but not in the acute stage.
- Seborrhea.
- The skin becomes uneven and loses elasticity.
- Pigment spots appear - for example, as a result of excessive exposure to ultraviolet radiation on the skin or as a consequence of age-related changes.
Carbon peeling is suitable for any skin type, but it is especially effective for eliminating problems that arise with oily skin: enlarged pores, excessive shine, and excessive secretion of skin secretions. It fights well against acne and its consequences. The reason is simple: the laser beam has a warming effect on the layers of the epidermis, and bacteria, which often become the source of acne, die.
Age restrictions: from 18 to 60 years. In adolescence, the skin is still young enough to undergo such procedures. After 60 years, it is recommended to consult with your doctor in advance, since laser carbon peeling is a hardware procedure.
Chemical peeling of the bikini area
This procedure is performed to remove ingrown hairs after hair removal. Treatment with salicylic acid is best suited for this. This substance, similar in composition to aspirin, has an antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effect, and gently removes the upper epithelial layer. The drug is rubbed into the skin with light massage movements.
Light lemon peeling is often used to treat this area . It brightens the skin, making it softer and softer.
For each area of the body, cosmetologists have selected various types of similar procedures. The full rejuvenation program will take a long time, but the results will be stunning!

Contraindications to deep atraumatic back cleansing
Although cleaning is safe and low-traumatic, it happens that its implementation may be unacceptable. First of all, this concerns individual intolerance to drugs contained in the acids used.
In addition, there are some other contraindications:
- Skin diseases, including eczema, herpes, psoriasis;
- Pustular skin lesions caused by an increase in the number of staphylococcal or streptococcal bacteria;
- Damage to the epidermis (burns, cuts, abrasions);
- Keloid scars;
- Large or unusual moles;
- Oncological diseases.
When these phenomena are not observed, nothing will interfere with the back cleaning procedure.
Skin of any age (no matter what quality) needs care, which will result in a disinfecting, restorative, rejuvenating and nourishing effect.
Maximum results can be achieved if the skin is not damaged and there is no risk to blood vessels. The effect lasts for a long time and does not require a tedious recovery period.

Who should not undergo carbon peeling?
Since carbon skin cleansing is a hardware procedure, contraindications to its implementation always remain. These include:
- Skin damage in the treatment area, exacerbation of herpes.
- Exacerbation of a chronic disease (preliminary consultation with your doctor is required).
- A diagnosed malignant tumor, regardless of its location.
- Pathologies of blood vessels and heart, low blood clotting, diabetes mellitus.
- The proximity of blood vessels to the surface of the skin.
- Acute infectious condition (for example, acute respiratory viral infections, acute respiratory infections).
Carbon peeling is not recommended for women expecting and breastfeeding.
Thus, non-invasive laser carbon peeling is a great way to transform yourself quickly and without much hassle (this can be done, for example, on a weekend). Moreover, the effect will be noticeable after the first procedure, and the lasting result after a course of peelings lasts up to 3 months. For all this to become a reality, it is necessary to choose a qualified specialist who has good skills in working with a laser, and therefore will do everything competently and without violating the methodology.
What else is good about laser carbon peeling?
In addition to its high efficiency, painlessness, and quick recovery, the advantage of this type of skin cleansing is that it can be performed at any time without reference to the season, as is the case with all other peels, the ideal time for which is the period from mid-October to mid-April .
So, if there is a need to urgently take care of your appearance at another time of the year, it is better to give preference to non-invasive laser carbon peeling.
In addition, carbon peeling has virtually no side effects. It can also be combined with some other cosmetic procedures: applying a peptide mask to the skin, superficial chemical peeling, mechanical cleansing. This is due to the fact that under the influence of carbon, the pores open well and the skin is more receptive to any other means and manipulations.
What to do next?
Unlike most other peels, which act more aggressively on the skin, for example, chemical peels, redness and swelling will last on the skin for a couple of hours - a maximum of a day, then everything will return to normal. However, this does not mean that the procedure can be immediately forgotten:
- It is not recommended to use decorative cosmetics for at least a day (ideally three).
- It is not advisable to use alcohol-containing skin care products for several days.
- At first, you should refrain from visiting the sauna and bathhouse.
- When going outside, especially if peeling was carried out in the summer, it is necessary to apply a cream with a high level of protection to the skin.
If precautions are not taken after cleansing, excessive peeling and spot inflammation may appear on the skin, so in no case should you ignore your doctor’s advice, even if it seems unnecessary to you.
