What is chemical peeling and how does it work?

Chemical peeling is an aesthetic treatment that uses a chemical solution to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. This solution contains ingredients such as acids (such as glycolic, salicylic or lactic acid) that act on the superficial layers of the skin, eliminating dead cells and stimulating cell regeneration.

The chemical peel process involves the careful application of the solution to the skin, allowing the acids to penetrate and act on the surface layer. This triggers cell renewal, eliminating blemishes and improving skin texture, tone and luminosity.

Benefits of chemical peeling

Chemical peels offer a wide range of benefits to improve the health and appearance of your skin. Here we highlight some of them:

  • deep exfoliation: Chemical peeling removes dead cells from the top layer of skin, revealing fresh, renewed skin.
  • Improvement of skin texture and tone: The treatment helps to smooth the skin's texture, reducing the appearance of enlarged pores, fine wrinkles and blemishes.
  • Stimulation of collagen production: Chemical peels promote collagen production, which helps improve skin firmness and elasticity, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Dark spots and pigmentation treatment: Depending on the type of chemical peel used, it can help reduce the appearance of dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and melasma, promoting a more even skin tone.

Malaga chemical peel

El chemical peeling, also known as dermabrasion, is an aesthetic treatment for facial rejuvenation, which consists of the application of different chemical substances to achieve a renewal of the superficial layers of the skin.

Types of chemical peels

There are different types of chemical peels that vary in intensity and depth of exfoliation. Next, we will mention some of the most common:

  • Superficial peeling: This type of peeling is gentle and focuses on the outermost layer of the skin. It is ideal for treating minor skin tone and texture problems, as well as for general rejuvenation.
  • medium peel: A medium intensity chemical peel penetrates deeper layers of the skin, making it more effective for treating wrinkles, moderate acne scars, and more pronounced blemishes. It provides more significant results but may require a longer recovery time.
  • deep peel: This type of peeling is the most intensive and is used to treat deep wrinkles, severe acne scars and dark spots. It penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin and requires a longer recovery time.
    It is important to keep in mind that the type of chemical peel that is right for you will depend on your skin type, your goals and the specialist's recommendations.

Main chemical peeling treatments

Phenol Chemical Peel

El phenol peel represents the most effective option for chemical peeling of regenerative action by virtue of the depth at which it acts. For this reason, it is especially indicated for people over 30 years of age since, compared to other milder chemical peels, the phenolic peel It makes sense to apply it to skin that already shows certain signs of the passage of time, not before.

It is a treatment with a very advanced chemical formulation among whose components phenol stands out, which has a very powerful exfoliating capacity. It is completely safe, but it must always be applied under medical supervision by qualified personnel with extensive experience.

Lactic acid chemical peel

It is a mild acid that is characterized by the fact that it improves the appearance of the skin in a more gentle way and provides luminosity. It is one of the few that could be used before the summer or to attend an event because it does not produce a great desquamation.

Glycolic acid chemical peel

It was the first acid with which work began, the results depend on the concentration and it is indicated above all for oily skin. At low concentrations it can be used at home because the peeling is soft, it regulates the production of dryness and that light exfoliation causes the pores to close as well as rehydration because it stimulates the deeper layers, he says. On the other hand, when the proportion of glycolic acid is higher, from 70 percent it is considered a medical peel, the regulation of sebum is much greater, it closes the pores more and removes stains superficially.

Salicylic acid chemical peel

This active ingredient produces a superficial exfoliation that is perfect for treating pimples and blackheads. In addition, this technique helps prepare the skin for other deeper treatments. It is indicated for acne-prone skin, but care must be taken if the patient uses creams that can make the skin more sensitive. Chemical peels are not suitable for people taking isotretinoin,

Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) chemical peel

It is the most widely used after glycolic acid and its action depends a lot on both the concentration and the way and time it is applied. It is exclusively for medical use, since it has medium and deep effects, for problems with marks, spots and small wrinkles. If the exfoliation is very deep, we must warn the patient that the skin will be very flaky in the following days.

TCA offers an alternative and that is that sometimes additives such as hydrogen peroxide are added to make skin irritation less noticeable but the action lasts longer. In addition, it could be applied even in summer, although taking extreme sun protection measures.

Mandelic acid chemical peel

It is very similar to lactic acid and is widely used after vacations for people who require a gentle recovery because their skin is not too damaged.

Azelaic acid chemical peel

It acts at a medium level and is ideal for dark skin with phototypes 4, 5 and 6 because it prevents any hyperpigmentation. This asset is usually used for oily and blemished skin.

There are other acids, such as phenol indicated for prominent wrinkles, as well as sometimes opting for a combination of several. In any case, Vega suggests being very careful and assessing the effect of each one of them.

Chemical peel application process

The chemical peel application process may vary depending on the type of treatment and the specific needs of your skin. The general process is described below:

  • initial evaluation: Before performing a chemical peel, a specialist will evaluate your skin to determine the appropriate type of peel and the concentration of the solution to use. You will also have a review of your medical history and your expectations and concerns will be discussed.
  • skin preparation: Before treatment, you may need to prepare your skin following the specialist's instructions. This may include stopping certain topical products and applying home care products.
  • Peel application: During the treatment, the specialist will carefully apply the chemical peel solution to your skin. It will make sure to cover all the desired areas and control the exposure time according to the needs of your skin.
