Chemical Peels

Chemical peels apply a controlled acid solution to exfoliate the skin's surface and encourage renewal, supporting a brighter, smoother and more even complexion. At Klinika Urody VITA a range of strengths is offered, from gentle refreshing peels to branded medical formulations such as PRX-T33, Retix C and BioRePeel. The right peel is chosen after a skin assessment, and a course is often recommended.

A chemical peel uses a solution of acids — such as glycolic, salicylic, mandelic, lactic or trichloroacetic acid, alone or in blends — applied to the skin for a controlled time to loosen and remove dead surface cells and prompt renewal of the layers beneath. Depending on the strength used, peels are associated with a brighter, smoother complexion, more even tone and a softened look of fine lines, congestion or pigmentation. At Klinika Urody VITA the skin is cleansed and the chosen peel applied; you may feel tingling or warmth during the few minutes it is on. Lighter peels typically cause mild redness and perhaps slight flaking over the next days, while stronger or branded medical peels such as PRX-T33, Retix C and BioRePeel can prompt more visible renewal. Because results are cumulative, a course of several sessions spaced a few weeks apart usually gives the best outcome, with diligent sun protection essential during and after the course. The clinic matches the type and strength of peel to your skin and concerns at consultation — for example dullness, uneven texture, congestion or pigmentation. Peels are avoided over active skin infection and during pregnancy for certain formulations; suitability and the right protocol are confirmed beforehand, along with home-care advice to support and protect the results.
