Yellow Peel – The process
Yellow Peel is a gentle chemical peeling that delicately helps skin exfoliate (even hand skin and eye skin area). When all ingredients necessary for the procedure are combined, the peeling turns yellow and this is exactly where its name comes from.
Yellow Peel procedure consists of three stages during which there are different substances used, yet they always answer individual needs of skin.
Stage I
The procedure begins with cleansing skin using a special preparation that is rinsed off after 20 minutes. After that the superficial layer of epidermis is removed due to glycolic and silicic acid. Both acids affect skin strongly, therefore they have to be removed after just a few minutes.
Stage II
Elasticin and collagen production is stimulated. Thanks to this, skin becomes more supple and looks well-rested. So as to make this possible, a few layers of retinoic acid and vitamin C are applied. They are removed after 15-20 minutes.
Stage III
Next, acids such as phytochemical, kojic and azelaic are brought into action. All of them reduce visibility of small blemishes and discolorations, regulate synthesis of melanin and prevent skin imperfections.
