Chemical Peeling: A Path to Rejuvenated Skin at Dr. Dana's Practice in Calpe/Alicante, Spain

In the serene surroundings of Calpe, Alicante, Dr. Dana offers an esteemed practice specializing in chemical peeling—a recognized method for skin rejuvenation. Chemical peeling refers to the process of exfoliating the skin through various techniques and substances. This procedure can be performed mechanically, via laser, or using specific chemical agents designed to remove the damaged outer layers of the skin. By opting for a chemical peel, you can reveal your fresh skin beneath, employing a nature-inspired approach with remarkable effects.

Dr. Dana’s practice, built upon years of experience, predominantly favors chemical peels for their effectiveness. Among the myriad of available procedures, three methods stand out as the most preferred options. These techniques are not only safe but also exceptionally efficient pathways to achieving a more youthful appearance. In certain cases, modern phenol peeling may also be applied to cater to specific skin needs. It is important to note that most chemical peels should be conducted in medical settings, ensuring professional oversight during the treatment. Each session is typically brief, lasting under 15 minutes, allowing patients to return home with minimal disruption to their day. The results of chemical peels can persist for several months, and it is advisable to schedule these treatments during periods of reduced sun exposure.

Fruit Acid Peeling

For centuries, mild acids have found their place in dermatological beauty care. The gentlest form of chemical peeling is the fruit acid peel, derived from fruits or sugarcane. These acids stimulate skin renewal, making the fruit acid peel suitable for treating skin impurities, mild acne forms, enlarged pores, superficial scars, fine lines, signs of aging, and light pigment disorders. AHA peels offer flexibility, as they can be administered either in a professional setting or at home, depending on the patient's preference.

TCA Peeling

Patients seeking quicker results may find the TCA peel more appealing. The main ingredient here is trichloroacetic acid (TCA), which is specially prepared and applied to the skin. Following the treatment, the skin undergoes a natural renewal process over several days. The outcomes of TCA peeling are often comparable to those achieved through laser treatments but come at a significantly lower cost. Additionally, the drawbacks associated with laser procedures, such as prolonged sun avoidance, are eliminated with TCA peels. This option stands out as fast, manageable, budget-friendly, and highly effective, making it a popular choice among patients.

Obagi Blue Peel

The Obagi Blue Peel, developed by the renowned American dermatologist Dr. Zein Obagi, has become a coveted secret among Beverly Hills stars. This chemical peel utilizes TCA, penetrating deep into the skin for substantial rejuvenation. The unique dilution and coloring of the solution allow physicians to assess its progress within the skin layers accurately. Importantly, the procedure does not require anesthesia; patients experience only a tolerable burning sensation for a few moments. After approximately two days, the old skin sheds dramatically, revealing new, regenerated skin beneath. Full regeneration typically completes within two weeks, during which numerous new collagen fibers are produced. This process effectively evens out splotchy complexions affected by age spots, resulting in fresher, smoother skin. Generally, the treatment addresses up to four skin layers in a single session, reinforcing its efficacy while being conveniently outpatient-focused.
