SESGLICOPEEL K 100 ML - PH 2.5
SESGLICOPEEL K 100 ML - PH 2.5
Chemical peeling for hyperpigmentations in skins sensitive to hydroquinone and higher phototypes. Inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne, acné scars, rosacea, and couperose. (NOT AVAILABLE IN USA).
Peel in gel texture indicated for any type of aging signs and where the main active ingredient is the glycolic acid.
Glycolic acid (GA) is one of the most commonly used chemical substances for superficial peels. This AHA causes total or partial changes in the epidermis and the papillary dermis.
The procedure generates skin variations by stimulating epidermal proliferation, destroying specific layers of the altered skin or inducing poorly known tissue inflammatory reactions. Skin changes can be seen after several applications of this type of peel, e.g, new collagen deposits and an increase of GAGs in the papillary dermis, which help repair sun-damaged skin. Glycolic acid is very soluble in water and has a small molecular size.
These two qualities grant a greater transepidermal penetration capacity, and can cause mild irritation after its application.
- Apply Sesglicopeel using a gauze, starting from the least sensitive areas in the skin and moving toward the most sensitive ones (forehead, cheeks, submandibular region, chin, upper lip, and nose).
- Allow to act for 5 to 10 minutes or until the treatment endpoint is reached: mild redness without flaking. Once the time is over, in order to stop the peel from acting and penetrating deeper into the skin neutralize it by washing the affected area with plenty of water. After rinsing, to ensure a complete neutralization of the peel, a coat of neutralizing lotion may be applied.
- After application, monitor any areas that are warmer to the touch and any erythema and properly neutralize.
- If there are more than three affected areas, the whole area of the peel should be neutralized.
- During application, it is normal for patients to feel a slight tingling sensation on the skin. This will subside after a few minutes.
