Almond peeling is a procedure for those who want to refresh their skin without stress. Mandelic acid molecules act slowly and predictably. Due to this, the skin does not experience severe irritation, and the renewal process is started physiologically.
This facial peeling is especially relevant for oily and combination skin prone to inflammation, enlarged pores and uneven tone. It helps to stabilize the sebaceous glands, makes the skin more matte and clean, while not violating its protective barrier.
Unlike more active acid treatments, almond peeling is suitable even for patients with sensitive skin and can be performed throughout the year with proper photoprotection.
Before starting, the skin is diagnosed and the acid concentration is selected. The skin is cleansed, then a composition with mandelic acid is applied. The doctor controls the depth and time of exposure, focusing on the skin's reaction.
There is a slight warmth or tingling sensation during the procedure. After neutralization, a soothing serum and cream with SPF are applied. The whole procedure takes about 30 minutes.
Pronounced peeling is most often not present. Slight dryness is possible for several days. The course usually consists of 4-6 procedures with an interval of 10-14 days.
Mandelic acid belongs to the AHA-acids, but its molecule is larger than that of glycolic acid. This means a more superficial and gentle penetration.
Skin peeling with almond acid removes dead skin cells, has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects. It reduces the activity of pathogenic flora, regulates sebum production and helps to smooth the texture.
Additionally, microcirculation is activated, the complexion improves, the skin becomes more dense and well-groomed.
