Freshen, tone and tighten

To peel or not to peel?

SHARON Cassidy from Riverside Beauty answers the question – to peel or not to peel?

“The skin is a live organ whose cellular components undergo a dynamic and continuous renewal process,” she said.
“The velocity and efficacy of the skin drops as we age. Discolouration, sagginess, open pores and dullness are the earliest consequence of this physiological process.”
According to Sharon, acids are among the most innovative technology and dermo cosmetic products available to aesthetic professionals are the most versatile treatment option able to address a variety of aesthetic concerns.
“Chemical solutions are used to create controlled aggression on top of the skin,” Sharon said.
“With an increased cell turnover after acid stimuli, peels offer benefits such as attenuation of wrinkles, refined pores, replenishment and tightening of the tissue.
“All peels have two common goals. They exfoliate to remove imperfections located on the top layer of the skin and upon the different characteristics of the acids used, stimulate the skin’s renewal system resulting in better hydration, more even skin tone and luminosity.
“Peels are a versatile weapon to achieve spectacular skin changes and can be combined with other therapies such as IPL or microdermabrasion.”
