Peeling of the skin is done to remove wrinkles, sun damaged skin, uneven pigmentation and small scars, like acne scars.
This can be done in three different ways.
With lasers, and there are several different laser machines on the market to accomplish this . Some works only very superficial to remove part of the epidermis. This gives a quick healing, but also less effect on the result. Some goes deeper, down to the dermis, to give a better effect on deep wrinkles and scars, but demands a longer healing time, 1 – 2 weeks.
With mechanical dermabration, the same result can be accomplished ( superficial – deep peeling ) with a similar effect on healing time .
Finally we have chemical peeling that has a history on the market that goes back more than 90 years. With different chemical solutions, we can create different depth for the peeling of the skin, and thereby balancing the desired result to the healing time.
Most shallow is the Glycolic Acid peelingwhich has no healing time at all, and can be done during a lunch hour. Several treatments are necessary to give sun damaged skin, a smooth surface and an even colour.
A medium peeling is done with 20% Trichloroacetic acid (TCA).It gives no open wounds,but the skin becomes red and peels off in 3 – 5 days. Like a severe sunburn with a downtime of 5 – 7 days.
A deeper peeling with Croton Oil, gives a total new skin with an even colour, almost all wrinkles gone and a long lasting result- more than 20 years ! This requires some hospitalisation. Healing time is 2 weeks, after which the new skin is red for several months and requires make-up (just like the deeper laser peelings ). The laser peelings however, do not give the same profound rejuvenation effect on the skin and are not as long lasting.
