CHEMICAL PEELS: INNOVATION CONCEPT PEELS
Innovation Concept Peel (ICP)
The Innovation Concept Peel (ICP) is an effective treatment for colouration problems in the skin, it can be used on dark skins and lessens sun spots and irregular pigmentation as well as refreshing the skin surface and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. This superficial chemical peel helps the controlled removal of the dead skin layer. It stimulates the skin renewal process to enhance the skin’s appearance. The results are seen after 3-4 weeks and a second peel may then be needed.
Innovation Concept Peel: Procedure
Only qualified professionals should apply this peel such as dentists, doctors and registered nurses. The standard procedure to apply ICP includes the following steps:
- Degreasing solution is used to deeply cleanse the skin. This prepares the skin for the peel and opens up pores.
- The ICP peel is applied on the skin.
- The peel is left to dry for 2 to 8 hours depending on the skin type and severity of the problem for which the treatment is undertaken.
- Later, the peel mask is removed at home by the client using the foaming gel, your skin may be slightly red
In the following days, the outer layer of the skin will exfoliate. A post-treatment kit is provided for at-home use. It nourishes the new skin and promotes the growth of skin cells. The next peel is administered after 4 to 5 weeks.
Regular use of the glycolic acid base cleanser ten days prior to the treatment significantly enhances the results of the ICP peel.
ICP can be applied to treat skin defects in any part of the body. However, facial skin responds best to the peels.
