What is a lactic chemical peel?
A lactic chemical peel is a gentle yet effective skin treatment that uses lactic acid, a naturally occurring alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA). This peel works to exfoliate the surface layer of your skin, promoting cell turnover and revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion. Ideal for hydrating and brightening, it also helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation, making it a versatile addition to your skincare routine.
Why do we love it?
At Botanic Zen, we love the lactic chemical peel for its mild yet impactful results. Its hydrating properties make it perfect for those with dry or sensitive skin, ensuring that your skin feels nourished and rejuvenated after treatment. The peel is gentle enough to avoid irritation while still delivering noticeable improvements in skin texture and tone. Additionally, its ability to boost hydration and stimulate collagen production makes it a favorite for maintaining a youthful, healthy glow. A gentle, bright-skin peel!
Who is a lactic chemical peel best for?
The lactic chemical peel is an excellent choice for individuals seeking a gentle, effective solution for acne, pigmentation and anti-aging. Whether you have dry, sensitive or mature skin, this peel can help you achieve a more luminous and even complexion. It is particularly beneficial for those with delicate skin that may not tolerate stronger chemical peels, providing a safe and soothing option for exfoliation and skin renewal. At BZA, we recommend this peel for anyone looking to enhance their skin's natural beauty with a gentle yet powerful treatment.
The lactic peel is a safe and effective treatment that can be performed on all skin types, colors, ages and year-round.
The lactic chemical peel is also safe and recommended for pregnant or lactating clients.
Is there associated downtime after a lactic chemical peel?
The lactic chemical peel is superficial, gentle, “no downtime” peel. You can expect approximately one to three days of dry, flaky skin post treatment.
How long does a lactic chemical peel take?
Expect your lactic chemical peel to take approximately 90 minutes.
