How To Prepare for Chemical Peeling Medellin?
Chemical peels penetrate deep under the skin for an exfoliating effect, delivering immediate results. They offer stunning results but come under the umbrella of intense skin treatments. To minimize possible risks, here is how to prepare:
- Schedule your consultation so we can determine if chemical peeling is the right procedure for you.
- You must also prepare your skin for receiving the treatment. Avoid exfoliating the skin, refrain from using makeup, and avoid stepping out into the sun during the days leading up to your appointment.
- Your specialist may prescribe topical treatments to apply at home a few weeks before your treatment.
- Avoid smoking or the intake of alcohol
- Keep yourself well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water
Complementary Treatments
Facial peeling is excellent at revealing a brighter, smoother, and more refined complexion with just one treatment. For optimized results, you can use complementary procedures, including the following:
What Is A Facial Chemical Peel?
A facial chemical peel uses a topically applied exfoliating formula that revitalizes the skin surface, evens the skin tone and texture, and eliminates the signs of aging. Your provider will apply a layer of chemical solution to the face to trigger the removal of the top skin layer. In reaction, the body promotes cell regeneration, so you have a renewed appearance after healing.
After Care with Chemical Peels in Medellin
Facial chemical peeling is a non-surgical, pain-free treatment, usually performed as an outpatient procedure. It should be completed in 20 to 30 minutes. During the healing process, take special care of your skin so it bounces back quicker and maximizes the benefits of your treatment.
Stay out of the sun as much as possible for the first 4 weeks, and use SPF on your skin. Use a neutral moisturizing cream that retains hydration and promotes healthy tissue regeneration. Use a gentle cleanser to wash your skin, preferably one that does not dry out the skin.
Similarly, avoid using any exfoliators on your skin, stay away from spas and saunas, and avoid peeling or picking at your skin. Healing is all about giving your skin some space!

FAQs
1. How are Facial Chemical Peels Applied?
Here is a step-by-step breakdown of what to expect during your procedure:
- The procedure begins with a cleansing lotion that removes any makeup residue, dust or dirt, and sebum over the skin.
- With the face cleansed, we move on to protecting sensitive areas. Cotton is applied near the eyes, corner of the mouth, and nasal wings to protect them from irritation.
- We then apply the chemical solution, which varies in strength and is tailored according to your skin’s needs.
- We leave the layer on for some time, after which a buffer solution is applied to neutralize the chemical acids.
- Finally, a repair cream is used to cover the skin alongside a generous amount of sunscreen with SPF 50+
During the procedure, patients may feel a mild tingling or heat on the skin’s surface. This is completely normal, and the discomfort is temporary. You should always rely on a qualified practitioner who can monitor your skin’s reaction to the peel so they may minimize risks.
