Chemical peels (glycolic) in Baku

Overview

Glycolic peels are a specialized form of chemical peel that utilizes glycolic acid, derived from sugar cane, to effectively exfoliate the skin. At Paramed in Baku, our glycolic peel treatments are customized to address various skin concerns, including uneven texture, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation. The procedure works by removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, revealing a fresher, more radiant complexion underneath. Our experienced professionals will evaluate your skin type and tailor the treatment to ensure optimal results. The session typically lasts around 30 minutes, and while some clients may experience mild tingling, the process is generally well-tolerated. It's important to note that consultation is required prior to treatment, as contraindications may exist.

Benefits

How it works

Technology

The glycolic peel utilizes a concentrated glycolic acid solution, which acts as an exfoliant to remove dead skin cells and stimulate new cell growth. This process is crucial for improving skin texture and tone, making it particularly effective for individuals with sun damage or signs of aging. The safety of glycolic peels is well-established, as they are performed by trained professionals who assess each client's skin type and concerns before treatment. This personalized approach ensures that the peel is both effective and safe, minimizing the risk of adverse reactions.

  • Platform: Glycolic acid solution
