Rejuvenize Peel After Care and Treatment Info

rejuvenize peel after care at About Face Skin Care

The Rejuvenize Peel is a professional grade, deep chemical peel that aggressively treats sun damage, melasma, acne scarring and fine wrinkles in as little as just one application.

 

The Rejuvenize Peel by SkinMedica penetrates deep into the surface layers of the skin, and begins working almost instantly to deliver even, radical exfoliation and expose fresher, more beautiful looking skin. It is specially formulated to provide the most dramatic results possible while maintaining minimal downtime and discomfort.

If you?ve been unable to remedy the appearance of fine wrinkles, minor blemishes, rough, sun damaged skin or acne scars with your regular over the counter skin care products, and don’t have time for “downtime”, then a Rejuvenize Peel treatment may be perfect for you!

Incorporating a Rejuvenize Peel into your skin care regimen every eight weeks or few months can be an excellent way to maintain soft, smooth, beautiful and healthy looking skin. While milder peels are available for less pronounced blemishes or fine lines, the Rejuvenize Peel is the best solution for more developed lines, sun damage, acne scarring or other blemishes.

If you?re looking for a fast acting, powerful chemical peel and don?t have the time/energy for a significant recovery period, then the Rejuvenize Peel may be just what you?re looking for!

How does it work?

The Rejuvenize peel permeates deep into the topmost layers of your skin. It thoroughly dries and agitates the visible layer of skin, causing it to flake away to reveal the younger, healthier and clearer skin below.

The Rejuvenize Peel is formulated to seep deep into the skin in order to affect the most possible layers of old, damaged skin cells. It delivers surprising results after just one peel without causing serious discomfort or requiring significant downtime.

Does the Rejuvenize Peel treatment hurt?

Application of the Rejuvenize Peel is normally associated with a mild tingling or prickling sensation. Many patients report increased sensitivity or a flushed, warm feeling similar to sunburn.

Unlike many chemical peels, the Rejuvenize Peel doesn?t require a neutralizing agent to stop the reaction that causes rough, sun damaged skin to peel away. This means that the Rejuvenize application process is safe and self-regulating, and its effects are always predictable.

* Please note that individual results may vary.

How long does the treatment take?

The initial application of the Rejuvenize Peel formula is normally done in a matter of minutes, and the entire treatment process takes roughly half-an-hour. Since the peel is self-neutralizing, the chemicals remain on your skin after treatment until you wash them off — which should take place 6-8 hours after application.

Visible peeling generally begins within about one to two days, and peaks around the third day. During the most obvious stages of peeling, makeup does little to mask the appearance of peeling, flaky skin.

While the most dramatic peeling occurs through the third and fourth day, some patients opt to stay at home until the peeling is no longer visible. This can take as long as five or six days from the day of treatment.

How long do the results last?

The Rejuvenize Peel is designed to deliver the most effective deep exfoliation available without necessitating a difficult ?down? or recovery time. Its freshening, beautifying effects are normally apparent after just one treatment, and often remain for several months or more.

  • The skin may feel very hot for a few hours after the treatment. (Over the next couple of days, it is normal for your skin to feel tight and slightly sunburned. If there is significant discomfort, please contact the office immediately at 215-923-5001.)

If your face feels really hot?

  • Apply an ice-pack directly on the skin.
  • Apply moisturizer as needed. (For extra soothing, you can leave your moisturizer in the refrigerator so that it feels extra cool when applied to the skin.)
