CHEMICAL PEELS

What are chemical peels?

Chemical peels, or skin peels, harness the power of naturally occurring acids and active ingredients, clinically proven to deeply exfoliate the skin, stimulate collagen production, and new cell growth and turnover, for more radiant, younger-looking skin.

How do skin peels and chemical peels work?

Skin peels harness a blend of natural acids and enzymes to exfoliate and stimulate cell turnover. By removing dead skin cells from the surface, they reveal fresher, smoother skin beneath, while also promoting collagen and elastin production to minimize fine lines and wrinkles.

During the treatment, a chemical solution is applied to the face or specific areas of the body, allowing it to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin for a few minutes. This process not only exfoliates but also rejuvenates the skin. The potent ingredients help address a range of skin concerns, including enlarged pores, redness, rosacea, age spots, blemishes, acne, sun damage, pigmentation, and fine lines. The results are often remarkable, offering a noticeable transformation in skin texture and appearance. At Monte Clinic you can find a variety of skin peels like: Bio/Deep Phyto Peel,  The Perfect Peel

DEEP PHYTO PEELING

Deep Phyto Peeling is a successfully proven, natural peeling method for skin regeneration based on a mixture of unique herbal combination with a mixture of glycolic and salicylic acids. The main ingredient – Spongilla (freshwater sponge), helps exfoliate the skin whilst enriching it naturally occurring minerals.

Is based on the use of a natural ingredient called Spongilla fluviatilis. It is a silicon freshwater sponge with unique biological and therapeutic characteristics. The sponge itself consists of microscopic needles (spicules) that contain trace elements that are biocompatible with the human body – silicon, phosphorus and lime. Due to their size and structure, spicules are able to penetrate the dermis without hindrance and cause a chain of various biochemical reactions in all its layers. Subsequently, spicules disintegrate under the action of skin enzymes and trigger defense mechanisms – immunity, while increasing the level of leukocytes. Also, in the composition of the sponge there is a unique protein called spongin, which is not found anywhere else in nature!

Steps of Deep Phyto peel:

1. In the initial phase of the procedure,a mild exfoliant may be used before the peeling solution to remove surface dead skin cells and enhance the penetration of the phyto peel, the skin proteins interact with the molecules of the so-called exfoliant called frost effect causing better results.

​2. The second face a creamy product that contain keratolytic ingredients, support a quick and deep effect on the skin of the main ingredient – Spongilla (freshwater sponge). In the massaging process it  dissolves in the skin transmits its rare naturally occurring minerals. This allowed to completely eliminate the mechanical friction process and its negative consequences.

​3. Soothing Mask: A hydrating or calming mask is often applied to soothe the skin and reduce any potential redness or irritation after the peel. This mask usually contains ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, or hyaluronic acid to restore moisture balance.

  • How long will it take to see the results? Why should I continue the treatment if the results are already seen before completing it?
    The most significant change takes place a few weeks after applying the mask in cabin, it improves skin texture and spots decrease noticeably. This can give a misleading feeling of success. During this period melanin has been removed from the outermost skin layers, and therefore we see the spot much more faded and the skin smoother and softer, but the origin of the problem has not been controlled yet. The melanocyte, a cell where melanin is produced, is still uncontrolled and continues to produce pigment (melanin) in excess. To re-educate the melanocyte and control this overproduction, it is important to continue a home treatment with regulating action, so that the cell returns to a normal active state and therefore prevent spots from reappearing.
  • What happens if I stop applying the home treatment?
    If you do not follow the home regimen, you are interrupting the treatment and will therefore not obtain the expected results. Not applying cosmelan 2 depigmenting cream with regulating action involves not regulating the melanocyte and, therefore, a persistent uncontrolled, excessive production of melanin. The spot will reappear as the skin layers are renewed, as melanin migrates to the surface making the spot increasingly evident. Not using photoprotection, melan 130 pigment control, involves a very high risk that the spot returns, as skin is more sensitive and receptive to external aggressions during the treatment.
  • Can I combine the cosmelan method with other depigmentation treatments?
    During at least the first three months of the method, it is not recommended to use any other type of minimally invasive treatment that can cause a skin lesion, as well as peels, microneedling, exfoliations, etc., as it can even cause repigmentation. It is advisable to use soothing and regenerating treatments both in cabin and at home in case it is needed. In the last months where we reduce the application guidelines of cosmelan 2 only to the night, we can combine it with treatments that help prolong the results, such as melan tran3x concentrate and melan tran3x gel-cream.
  • Does the treatment make me unable to fulfil my daily life activities normally?
    As it is not an invasive treatment, it does not make you unable to fulfil your activities of daily living normally. Caution must be exerted when fulfilling some type of activities during the first days, a skin adaptation period after the cabin treatment. For instance, it is advisable to avoid bathing in swimming pools, prolonged sun exposure and activities that involve excessive sweating.
  • Can the spots return after the end of treatment?
    After an adequate professional treatment, excess pigmentation can be removed visibly. However, it is a dynamic process, where the imbalance forming them can cause their recurrence. Therefore, even if the spots are not seen, it is essential to apply a daily regulatory depigmentation treatment and photoprotection throughout the year to prevent repigmentation.
  • How can I prevent the appearance of spots after the treatment?
    In case you are under the effect of any of the triggering factors for the appearance of spots (contraceptives, pregnancy, summer season, post-depilation, post-acne, post-peel, under photosensitising treatment, etc.), a daily treatment routine is essential, combining a depigmentation treatment, such as melan tran3x, with a high photoprotector such as melan 130 pigment control.
  • Does the cosmelan® treatment have side effects?
    If used correctly and under the supervision of a professional, there should be no side effects. cosmelan® is a topical treatment, therefore minimally invasive, that does not prevent you from following your normal daily life. During the initial phase and following the treatment in consultation, the skin may become irritated or show redness. This is totally normal and expected, and it will disappear within a few days. During the home phase, it is common to experience slight peeling and sensitivity, which are symptoms that disappear when applying the home products recommended by the specialist.
  • How does cosmelan® act against acne?
    cosmelan® is a depigmentation treatment; therefore, it is not indicated to treat active acne. If you would like to treat acne in its different phases of acneic and seborrhoeic skin, we recommend the acnelan medical treatment (active link to acnelan's consumer page). However, acne has an inflammatory component that can lead to the appearance of skin spots, known as PIH (Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation). cosmelan® is effective on this type of spots caused by acne, in all skin types and phototypes.
  • cosmelan® peel: is cosmelan® a peel?
    Although often referred to as cosmelan® peel, the cosmelan® treatment goes beyond a peel. Unlike peels, which act on the surface of the problem, cosmelan® gets to the root of the problem. It consists in a treatment that visibly removes and attenuates pigmentation spots (like a peel) while exerting a regulating action that corrects the overproduction of pigmentation and prevents the spots from reappearing.
