Medical acid peel
An acid peel, usually in the form of a fruit acid or glycolic acid peel, is a cosmetic treatment in which acids are applied to the skin. These acids break down the bonds between dead skin cells and promote their shedding, leading to skin renewal. This refines the complexion, reduces blemishes, wrinkles, and age spots, stimulates cell renewal, and improves the skin's moisture retention. Depending on the type and strength of the acid, it can penetrate the skin to varying depths.
- Lactic, salicylic, mandelic or glycolic acid

Preparation: Preparing your skin for a medical acid peel is just as important as the aftercare. Use our DECALYS Gel Pureté, which contains salicylic and glycolic acid, to prepare your skin. By reducing the skin's pH, the treatment is much more tolerable and results in less redness.
