Retinol 20% Caepilling Kaetana, 30 ml

Retinol peeling, pH-4.8.20%. Superficial peeling with midline results. Retinol peeling works not only with the epidermis, but also with the middle layers of the skin, but it is quite safe. Peeling is able to cope with wrinkles of different depths, age-related skin changes, scars and post-acne, including very deep and keloid formations. One of the few types of chemical peels that successfully fights hyperpigmentation. It has been noted that for many, the effect of double retinol peeling is equal to the effect of 10 (!) peeling sessions with glycolic acid.
Many cosmetologists advise starting rejuvenation with this procedure.

Against the background of retinol peeling, swelling and redness occur, but this is a normal reaction that disappears with proper care after a few hours. Also, a feature of this type of peeling is numbness and paresthesia (a type of sensitivity disorder, which includes subjective sensations of tingling, burning, “ant crawling”). This is also a reaction common for this peeling, which does not require special intervention and passes by itself. The client should be warned about this in advance. Remember: the effect of median peeling!

Diagnostics

Retinol peeling is a procedure mainly for mature skin. The age of potential clients is from 35 to 50 years. For those under 35, retinol peeling will be useful in cases where the skin has: very bright and rich pigmentation; severe acne scars; the first signs of destructive changes in the skin; acne; excessive activity of the sebaceous glands (oily seborrhea).

Compound

Ethyl alcohol, purified water, retinolic acid 5%, resorcinol 15%.

Resorcinol is an auxiliary component that acts as a catalyst, that is, enhances the action of retinol. , has a powerful anti-inflammatory effect.

Retinolic acid - increases the level of mitotic activity of basal keratinocytes; normalizes the processes of differentiation and keratinization in the epidermis; stimulates the synthesis of epidermal lipids; activates the synthesis of epidermal lipids; activates the synthesis of components of the intercellular matrix of the dermis; normalizes the synthesis of melanin.

Important:Even among experienced cosmetologists there is confusion: there are retinol peels (the active substance is retinol, or vitamin A) and retinoic, the so-called “yellow” (the active substance is retinoids, for example, retinoic acid). The main difference is the active substance of the peel. Retinol is unstable and easily destroyed by interaction with oxygen and light. Therefore, peels with ready-made retinoic acid (retinoic peels) are often used. However, retinoic acid is more aggressive, the procedure is more traumatic, post-peel care is longer. Retinoic peels have more side effects, including burns. Therefore, we preferred Retinol peeling.
At "Cayetana" - Retinol peeling.

If necessary, a third layer is also applied. The last layer of peeling is washed off by the client himself at home, after 10 hours (on average).

Recommended number of procedures: 2-3 procedures once a week with an interval of 2-3 months. Mandatory UV skin protection. Post-peel care

The skin is restored in 1-2 days. There is peeling and redness, but they are minimal. If you remember that usually the update period takes from 5 days to two weeks, then the difference is obvious. The main goal of post-peel care is to restore the barrier function of the epidermis. Care products should contain antioxidants, they can be used only after a few days (“Caemulsion” is ideal); The crusts that have appeared cannot be forcibly removed, and the peeling process must be accelerated; For washing, you need to use ordinary room temperature water; When going outside, a mandatory protection measure is the application of sunscreen or milk with SPF-50 in summer and SPF-25 in winter.
It is necessary to refuse decorative cosmetics within 5-6 days after the procedure; Within 5-7 days after the procedure, nano
