A chemical peel is a treatment using a liquid solution composed of natural acids. Peels significantly improve overall skin condition, stimulating cell renewal and removing dead skin cells. The skin becomes more even, pigment spots are reduced, pores become less visible, and the skin renews and rejuvenates. There are different types of acids, each with different properties. This allows us to tailor each treatment to your specific skin type. During the treatment, the practitioner will determine the most suitable peel for your skin.

Consultation with the doctor
Before all treatments, a consultation is scheduled. During this consultation, the doctor will listen to your wishes and explore the options available to achieve them. The doctor will thoroughly inform you about the pre- and aftercare, the expected results, any risks, and the recovery process for the chosen treatment.
The treatment
Once you've chosen to undergo treatment with us, we'll ask you to complete a medical questionnaire and sign a treatment agreement beforehand. If you take a lot of medication, please bring your medication list to your appointment.
Photos will be taken of you both before and after the treatment for your medical records. In some cases, the skin is locally anesthetized with a numbing cream or anesthetic solution before the treatment.
Aftercare
After the treatment, you will receive an aftercare form by email. You do not need to stay at the clinic and can go home immediately. It is common for the skin to be red and swollen after the treatment, and sometimes some bruising may occur. These side effects will disappear on their own. It is important that you cool the treated area well with the cool pack you received, if advised. If you experience severe bruising, we recommend applying Arnica cream to the treated area.
It is recommended that you avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for the first four hours after treatment. Exposure to intense heat (sun, sauna, or tanning bed) is also discouraged for one week after treatment. We advise against having a facial for two weeks after treatment. You can assess the final result after two weeks.
If you have any questions about your recovery, please feel free to contact us.
Risks
The risk of complications is very small. As with any procedure, there is a small risk of infection or allergy.

The treatment
The number of treatments required depends on the condition of the skin. Three to six treatments, spaced 2-4 weeks apart, are often necessary to achieve the desired result.
Is the treatment sensitive?
The treatment is generally well-tolerated. It feels like small pricks in the skin and is not painful.
Aftercare
It's important to properly support the skin after the treatment with products specifically tailored to the treated skin. This stimulates skin recovery. For the first 24 hours, only Skinfuse LIFT HG may be applied. For the following 24 hours, Skinfuse RESCUE cream may be applied as needed. This cream helps soothe, soften, and restore the skin. You will receive both products after the treatment.
