Most facial peels work best when combined with complementary procedures. Here are some treatments work best to nourish and protect the skin while undergoing Vitalize Peel.
What Is Vitalize Peel?
Vitalize peel is special form of dermabrasion. It is a chemical process by which the top layer of the skin, usually facial skin, is peeled away. This leaves the patient with younger, softer and lighter skin.
The Best Treatments to Use with Vitalize Peel
While the skin is fresh and vulnerable, it is important to protect it. Do this with a combination of treatments.
- Glycolic Acid: Glycolic acid helps loosen dead skin. In addition, it stimulates the skin to make new collagen, and helps fight sun damage and wrinkling.
- Retin-A: Retin-A helps skin cells replace themselves more quickly. This helps prevent follicles from becoming clogged. It has also been linked with reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
- Vitamin C: Vitamin C is scientifically proven to help fight wrinkles when used topically. Make sure to use only stabilized Vitamin C skin creams, as unstable (exposed to oxygen) Vitamin C might damage skin instead of repair it.
- Sunscreen: Make sure to use a high SPF, 50 or more, while undergoing Vitalize Peel treatments. The skin will be vulnerable for many days after the procedure, and patients need to be protected from the elements, particularly the sun. Even after the skin has fully recovered, use sunscreen to prolong the benefits of the peel.
