We Recommend Autumn Peels

You can do facial peels at home, but home treatments don’t have the same depth of effect and may cause unwanted side effects. That’s why cosmetologists at the Leoderm clinic recommend consulting specialists who will select a procedure based on your skin type and condition, age, and desired results.

Autumn: The Season for Medium and Deep Peels

Why is the autumn-winter period considered the optimal season for this procedure? Peels are classified by their effect on the skin (mechanical, chemical, laser), but they all achieve the same result—gentle removal of the surface layer of dead skin cells. This process temporarily makes the skin more vulnerable to UV rays. Due to increased sensitivity to ultraviolet light, melanin production becomes more active. Therefore, peels in the summer can lead to hyperpigmentation, while in autumn and winter, these risks are absent.

At the LeoDerm clinic, cosmetologists perform autumn procedures—laser, mechanical, and chemical facial peels—tailored to skin characteristics and desired results. These procedures are recommended for the following cases:

• aging prevention and age-related changes;
• enhancing the skin’s aesthetic appearance if it looks dull, lacks firmness, or is prone to inflammation;
• enlarged pores and excessive oil production;
• hyperpigmentation;
• hyperkeratosis;
• scars and post-acne marks.

Unlike superficial peels, which refresh and enhance the skin’s appearance, medium and deep peels affect the epidermis, granular, and basal layers, offering therapeutic and rejuvenating effects. They stimulate regeneration processes and protein synthesis—collagen and elastin.

Retinoic Facial Peel

Vitamin A (retinol) plays a role in redox processes, cell division, and growth. The product used for the autumn retinoic peel contains a high concentration of this substance, providing rejuvenating and regenerative effects. Retinol peels can be done from the age of 25 to address the following aesthetic concerns:

• enlarged pores;
• hyperpigmentation;
• acne and post-acne;
• facial scars and post-acne marks.

For older women, this procedure is recommended to prevent aging, reduce dullness, and address skin ptosis.

The mechanism of retinol peel action involves stimulating biological processes at the cellular level:

• promotes collagen and hyaluronic acid synthesis;
• regulates melanin production;
• helps restore the skin’s water balance.

PRX-T33 Peel

This is an acid facial peel performed with an Italian combination formula that stimulates restorative processes upon application to the skin.

The PRX-T33 formula includes:

• Trichloroacetic acid, which stimulates regeneration, deeply cleanses, and reduces inflammation;
• Kojic acid, which blocks melanin synthesis to reduce pigmentation, residual blemishes, acne, and scarring;
• Hydrogen peroxide, providing antiseptic effects.

Jessner’s Combination Chemical Peel

The Jessner peel is a type of acid peel used to address age-related changes and aesthetic issues in younger skin, such as pigmentation, scars, fine lines, and acne. It is a combination of acids that work together to provide comprehensive effects on the skin:

• Salicylic acid - offers rejuvenating effects, reduces inflammation, inhibits bacterial growth, and has keratolytic properties (promotes exfoliation of dead cells);
• Lactic acid - accelerates hyaluronic acid synthesis, hydrates, and tones the skin;
• Citric acid - provides antioxidant protection and slows aging;
• Kojic acid - decreases melanin production, evening out skin tone;
• Hydroquinone.

The autumn Jessner peel thickens the epidermis, helping to prevent sagging and the formation of deep wrinkles.

MD Peel

This formula contains a combination of acids that promote chemical exfoliation and have a keratolytic effect—breaking down proteins and supporting their renewal. MD peel is recommended for enhancing treatment results for hyperkeratosis, providing anti-aging effects, and correcting wrinkles.

Cold Laser Peel

Cold laser facial peeling at the LeoDerm clinic is performed with the FOTONA erbium laser. This advanced equipment precisely targets the skin with a laser beam at a specific depth. Under the laser’s influence, the surface layer is vaporized, triggering an active regeneration process.

The cold laser peel effectively smooths skin texture, tightens pores, and reduces the appearance of post-acne marks, scars, and stretch marks.
