Medical peelings

You do not (unfortunately) have glowing skin overnight. The skin is a living organ that is constantly trying to return to its original state. For the best results it is therefore recommended to repeat the treatment several times, so that the result remains optimal for as long as possible. The best would be to repeat the treatment every 4 months to keep the skin at its best.

What is a medical or chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a procedure that consists of eliciting accelerated skin rejuvenation. In a controlled manner, exfoliating agents (the peels) are used to begin acting on different skin layers. The peel ensures the elimination of the external skin layers (depending on the acidity and introughion time of the peel, you can determine the depth).

The 3 peels we use at Sarasin Clinic:

To find out which medical peel you need, we recommend first seeing Nurse Karen for a consultation. This is because a medical peel is tailored to a number of personal factors such as skin thickness, what skin type you have and whether the pigment is superficial or deep in the skin.

What is the purpose of a chemical peel?

  • Stimulate the production of: collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycan, improving the physiological and mechanical properties of these tissues.
  • Exfoliation causes the skin to divide faster and brings active substances into the various skin layers.
  • Depending on the acidity or PH value of the peel, different depths can be reached in the skin.
  • There are different percentages of acidity: only the peels that have a value lower than 1.5 PH belong to the medical peels! These medical peels may therefore only be performed by doctors or under the supervision of a doctor e.g. by a nurse.

How does a medical or chemical peel proceed?

After the preparation, we can start with the peeling. Our skin expert at Sarasin Clinic will cleanse your skin before we start the peeling.
The skin will be red and slightly swollen after the treatment. Keep in mind that for the first few days after treatment:

  • Not allowed in the sun (avoid sun/sunbed)
  • should not apply makeup to the face
  • give your skin time and space to adjust and recover from peeling

What does an exfoliation do in general?

  • Purifies and oxygenates the skin, keeping it hydrated and free of impurities
  • closes open pores, improves skin texture and increases epidermal thickness
  • Addresses the effects of skin aging, softening wrinkles and firming the skin
  • makes the skin tone more even
  • alleviate and weaken pigment lesions, creating a depigmenting effect
  • reducing acne and superficial scars

Does the skin need to be prepared for a medical peel first?

  • We strongly recommend that before starting a medical peel, the skin be prepared at least 3 weeks in advance.
  • With proper preparation, the peel will be better tolerated during your treatment, your downtime will be less and the result of your peel will be significantly better.
  • We never perform peels without preparing the skin first! When you make a reservation for a medical peel, you are required to come for a consultation first and the preparation is also discussed and given with you.

Aftercare for medical peels

  • Stop using your own day and night creams. These creams often contain irritants, such as perfumes and acids that can cause inflammatory reactions.
  • Do not use skin care with active ingredients, parabens and perfume for 5 days (mineral makeup may be used from day 6)
  • Avoid sun, tanning bed, hammam, sauna for 4 weeks. (Skin is more sensitive after peeling and thus more vulnerable to sunlight)
  • Do not exercise or swim for 48 hours after treatment
  • Use a sunblock
  • Do not scratch off skins or scabs, this will prevent scarring
  • Hydrate the skin where needed
  • No laser depilation of the treated area for 2 months after peeling
  • From the first peeling session until two weeks after the last session, we recommend not using peels or scrubs at home

Frequently asked questions about medical peels

Why are medical peels classified into levels?

Some peels work slightly more superficially than others, so depending on the desired result, the specialist will determine the desired depth.

What are the different levels of medical peels?

Very superficial = (superficial stratum corneum) Increases the uniformity of skin tone and provides a more "luminous" appearance. Will only benefit the éclat. Superficial = (epidermal to basal layer) Stimulates epidermal growth by removing the stratum corneum. This peel will cause skin peeling, similar to if you had a sunburn. From this depth we speak of the medical peels: Medium (papillary dermis) Affecting the papillary dermis, which can cause significant flaking. One gets superficial dermal inflammation. The epidermis will also be completely removed with this peel and thanks to the inflammatory reaction of the papillary dermis, one will regain a firmer dermis in the healing phase. Deep (reticular dermis) Deep chemical exfoliation leads to an inflammatory reaction of the reticular dermis, and this causes production of collagen and elastin.

How many times a year can you have a medical peel performed?

Depending on the depth of the peel, we recommend a maximum of 3 peels per year. At Sarasin Clinic we only work with the medical peels (they have a low PH value) so it is not allowed to use them too much. We therefore also do not allow more than 3 medical peels per year. Of course, it remains important to continue to stimulate the skin to divide and produce collagen and elastin. Once this stimulation is lost, the result will again visibly diminish. Our Sarasin Portocol will ensure that we permanently stimulate the skin! There is the possibility to do peels on the one hand and on the other hand to stimulate the skin permanently on its own by Microneedling + RF.

Quality and safety of medical peels

Each Mesopeel has been given a drug and medical device registration number (AEMPS) by the Spanish agency All peels of the Mesopeel pharmacy group comply with European standards. They have ISO 22716:2007, 9001:2008 and 13485:2012 for quality control management systems.

Treatment recommendations

At least 2 weeks between treatments / If using Roaccutane or skin-thinning medication, no treatment should be done / For men, it is recommended not to shave within 24 hours of treatment / Treatment is not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding / We recommend not doing a peel on sun-tanned skin (min. 4 weeks between)

A medical peel is not suitable for:

Inflammations, infections (such as active acne or active herpes) / Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus / Immunological disorders, impaired immune system / Cancer / Keloid formation / Renal, respiratory, hepatic or cardiac insufficiency / Fresh scars or wounds / Hypertrophic scars / A history of radiatherapy treatments in the face / Hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients of the peel / Pregnancy or breastfeeding / Damaged skin, recent waxing, use of depilatory cream / After using isotretinoin (Roaccutane), peeling can be done after six months / After using Tretinoin (Vitamin A acid), glycolic acid, benzoyl peroxide, the permeability of the skin may be increased

The first days after peeling

Day 1: Your skin feels dry but little is visible yet / Day 2: Your skin feels dry and tight. Dark spots may be visible in places where you first had pigment / Day 3: The skin begins to peel. First around your mouth and from there it continues. Any spots also disappear. Keep in mind that shedding will usually take 2-3 days. After that, there are often some remaining peels around your nose and hairline. / With heavier peels, peeling is necessary and inevitable while with lighter peels, your skin will only peel minimally.

What can you do yourself for maximum results?

Your skin is fragile and prone to pigment reappearance after peeling. Therefore, it is important that you strictly adhere to the "Post Peel Care.
