Peels, peels, chemical peeling, there are so many names for the treatment in question. But what does it actually do? A peeling is a wonderful treatment that improves the skin. With the help of enzymes and acids, the skin is exfoliated, stimulated and smoother.
What types of peels are there?
- Mechanical peels > by means of a grain in the product
- Enzymatic peels > using enzymes, often derived from fruit
- Chemical peels > using acids of natural origin (note: a chemical peel is not a chemical product. It causes a chemical reaction together with the skin).
What do peels do?
A professional peeling focuses on several points, depending on the customer's wishes, it is an effective treatment for skin improvement. Peels exfoliate the skin (remove dead skin cells), stimulate cell renewal, stimulate fibroblasts and encourage the skin to recover.
