Glycolic acid (AHA) is a naturally derived product, sourced from sugarcane or fruit acids, which we use here at Dermapure. It works both on the surface and in the deeper layers of the skin, dissolving fatty molecules and dead, dry cells that interfere with hydration and proper oxygenation of the skin. Like the buildup of dead skin on our heels, our faces also develop a layer of dead cells. Through the application of the Dermapure Signature Peel, this layer is effectively removed, resulting in smoother, softer skin and facilitating better penetration of cosmeceuticals.

To mitigate potential irritation, Functionlab has developed Professional Glycolic Peel Slow-Release technology. This innovation enables the active ingredients to penetrate the skin gradually over an extended period, minimizing the risk of skin irritation, making the Signature Peel an interesting option for those with heightened skin sensitivity.

What to expect during your session

Step 1

Cleanse the Skin

Removing surface impurities and all traces of makeup are the first steps in a glycolic acid peel treatment. It’s important to start off with a clean canvas—the treatment is wiped down with a gauze pad pre-soaked in alcohol to remove any oily film from the surface.

Step 2

Protection

Before starting, your technician will apply a protective balm to sensitive areas and provide you with eye protection.

Step 3

Apply the Glycolic Acid Peel Solution

The technician will use a brush to carefully apply the liquid glycolic acid solution over the entire surface of the treated area. The first peel is always applied at a lower 20% concentration. This concentration may be increased to 30% in follow-up sessions, if recommended by the technician. You may feel a slight tingling sensation on your skin as the glycolic acid’s exfoliating action takes effect. This is perfectly normal.

Step 4

Reaction Time

The glycolic acid solution is left on your skin for about five minutes to allow it to react. This may vary slightly depending on the degree of skin reaction and the concentration used. The technician will set a timer and will monitor your skin closely for any visible signs of reaction during the procedure.

Step 5

Neutralize the Glycolic Acid Solution

The exfoliating process can be stopped easily with cold water. The technician gently rinses the treatment area with a clear water compress to neutralize the product. The skin is instantly soothed.

Step 6

Deep Skin Hydration

As a final touch, the skin is hydrated using a combination of high-performance anti-aging products. Now is the perfect time to discuss your at-home skincare routine with your technician, who can recommend adjustments tailored to your specific skin needs.
