WHAT CAUSES WRINKLES?
As you begin to age, you will notice the development of ridges, folds and creases in your skin which eventually leads to the presence of wrinkles. This is because skin becomes thinner and drier as you get older, and it is no longer elastic and cannot snap back into place. The wrinkles that develop become permanent and do not fade away even after the face enters a relaxed state. With collagen and elastin no longer being produced by the skin, it cannot repair itself as before.
HOW SKIN PEEL WORKS ON GETTING RID OF WRINKLES?
Also known as chemical peel, this treatment is recommended for both men and women and is suitable for all ages. Removing the top layer of the skin naturally with a peeling solution, any dead skin cells will be naturally removed while the fresh layer of skin underneath will be healthier and smoother than previous layers, giving your face a rejuvenated appearance.
Premier Clinic uses a trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peel, which is one of the original peels used for skin rejuvenation but there are other types of peels available to suit your skin’s condition.
A burning sensation is normal and is to be expected during the initial application; this is the solution taking effect on your skin. Blowing out cool air, a cooling device held above your face will help to reduce the sting considerably, while cold compresses will be applied after the treatment in order to cool down your skin.
The peel’s effects and strength can also be increased to a higher intensity by applying the selected solution multiple times, but this is dependent on your skin’s condition, type and desired outcome. However, you should notice an improvement after each session regardless of the peel chosen.
TCA SKIN PEEL POST TREATMENT
A cycle of 2-4 peels is the usual recommendation for most patients but this may vary from patient to patient. During your consultation, your doctor will help to determine a suitable number of sessions in order to get optimal results. Sessions are spaced 4 weeks apart and you should also minimise any sun exposure and apply sunscreen lotion. Use a moisturiser at least twice a day.
