The skin is made up of two layers, the epidermis and the dermis. These layers deteriorate over time and need to be renewed. A peel, depending on its strength and thus the depth of action, will allow them to regenerate.
In our clinic, we perform superficial to medium peels. Deep peels will be reserved for facilities such as clinics or hospitals.

It therefore provides a "radiant boost to the face". The depth of action is controlled by the physician based on the type and concentration of the products used and the desired effect.
The sensation of heat is moderate and brief. The face shows slight redness for a few minutes. The aftercare for this treatment is straightforward:
Peeling lasts from 5 to 15 days (depending on the intensity of the peel).
The peeling is gradual. It can be masked by applying a moisturising cream and/or a covering foundation. Sun protection is necessary for 2 months.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF PEELS :
Cosmo Peel (Dermaceutic® laboratory): This range has several degrees of skin penetration, 15% and 18%. Therefore, we can aim for a fresh look for the face or seek to eliminate skin imperfections.
Mela Peel (Dermaceutic® laboratory): This peel is indicated for the treatment of pigmentation spots, brown pregnancy spots or melasma. Its action has also been proven to enhance complexion radiance and to address wrinkles and fine lines, even if that is not its primary indication.
DESCRIPTION OF A SESSION:
A session typically lasts 15-30 minutes and consists of several steps.
1. First, your skin is cleansed with a fruit acid solution.
2. Next, the keratolytic peel is applied to the entire face.
3. Finally, depending on the peel used, we will apply either a hydrating and soothing mask or the Mela Peel to the most pigmented areas.
You will leave with the peeling mask on, but no one will be able to see it as it is transparent. You will rinse it off 8 hours later.
The dark spots will gradually fade, and your skin will become even and radiant. You should apply the Mela Cream every morning and evening for 1 month to maintain and enhance the results.
AFTERMATH:
Depending on the type of peel used, you may either experience a simple redness persisting for 12 hours or peeling for 1 to 2 weeks. This will be discussed and decided with the doctor at the Centre.
However, it is mandatory to observe total sun avoidance for 1 to 2 months, as there is a significant risk of the spots reappearing.
Number of sessions: 1 to 2 Mela Peels per year, 4 sessions for the Cosmo Peel.
Mélanie's opinion: I used to smoke a lot; my skin was often grey due to everything I was ingesting, I imagine.
Twice a year, I would go to the Esthétique Paris Centre to regain a true radiance in my face. Thanks to the entire team, I was supported in reducing my tobacco consumption, which allowed me to discover this extraordinary peel. I also had the onset of melasma after my two pregnancies. With this technique, it has almost disappeared, much to my delight.
I truly recommend this treatment as it has enabled me to realise many things about preventing skin aging. Today, I have quit smoking, but I continue to visit the centre to maintain the quality of my skin through this treatment and customised skincare provided by a beautician. The secret to preserving the beneficial effects of this treatment: Protect your skin with SPF 50+ all year round.
