Exfoliating facial scrub Noreva Exfoliac Facial Scrub - reviews

Components

Surface cleansing products may contain one acid or a combination. In addition, the compositions are enriched with vitamins and components that enhance the effect. Typically peeling includes:

1. Glycolic acid. It is obtained from sugar cane and green grapes. The component has a pronounced effect due to its low molecular weight. The component penetrates deeply through the epidermal barrier, providing an internal and superficial effect. The substance has a bleaching effect.
2. Lactic acid. The component is present in fermented milk products, apples, grapes, blueberries, and tomato juice. In addition to the exfoliating effect, tissue hydration occurs.
3. Malic acid. Present in many fruits, apples, tomatoes. The component has a stimulating effect and accelerates metabolism.
4. Tartaric acid. Found in overripe grapes, oranges, and old wine. The component exfoliates dead cells, whitens the face, and moisturizes the epidermis.
5. Citric acid. It is found in citrus fruits. The component has a high molecular weight among AHA acids and is considered a natural antioxidant. It lightens the skin.

Salicylic acid is not an AHA acid, but is often used as an additional component to speed up the removal of the stratum corneum. The component is found in birch bark and plant leaves. Has an antiseptic effect, neutralizes fungi.

Only an experienced and qualified cosmetologist is able to correctly select the percentage of acid in the peeling product for each specific patient.

Such solutions are classified as follows:

• weak and medium concentrations (from 10 to 30%), acting at the surface of the epidermis and weakening the connections between the scales of the stratum corneum, thereby providing a powerful exfoliating effect that promotes the appearance of new young cells. In addition, these compositions stimulate the synthesis of elastin, collagen compounds, as well as other components of the intercellular layer, improving complexion, moisturizing and rejuvenating the skin surface. This type of peeling can be used frequently (for example, for oily skin types it is recommended to perform it 2 times a week);
• the most concentrated solutions with an active acid ratio of 30 to 70% not only cleanse the surface epithelium from the stratum corneum, but also affect the dermal layer, restoring its structure and tone with the subsequent appearance of a rejuvenating effect. This type of peeling is carried out no more than several times a year. They must be carried out by a qualified and certified specialist;
• the highest concentration of fruit acids (from 50 to 70%) is used to remove deep scars and scars left after acne, acne, and so on.

Facial peeling NOREVA Exfoliac Gel Desincrustant Facial Scrub - reviews

Hello, seekers and just visiting!

I have long-standing problems with my skin - the T-zone is oily, inflammation-blackheads, in addition, it is very thin - what others can “plaster over”, I can’t do - the pimple-lumpy relief betrays my scourge.

Lately I’ve had a fix idea - to bring my skin to an ideal (or near-ideal) state.

Because all sorts of quotes on VKontakte from Madame Chanel “If a woman at 30 is not a beauty, then she is a fool” is causing panic

I had a product that suited me perfectly - Exfoliak Acnomega 200, but you can only use it in autumn or winter, because acid creams and sun rays can turn you into a leopard - age spots will appear.

Attempts to use budget domestic creams (sorry, Fatherland) worsened the situation.

In general, “abroad will help us” - in the sense of pharmaceutical French skincare cosmetics.

I continued to get acquainted with the products from Norev’s laboratory.

So, the best peeling (scrub, gommage, exfoliating gel, scrub) - of all times

—

In use:

Gel in a modest (compared to the size of scrubs from Agafya) tube of 50 ml. The smell is specific sour, remains slightly on the skin. If it weren't for the review, I would never have remembered what it smelled like. The color is a beautiful blue; only the massaging grains remain blue on the skin.

It is convenient to dose - the hole is small, allowing you to use it economically.

To the touch - the gel does not have large parts (like the aricot scrub from ChL), the blue granules spread far apart across the face - but this scrub cleans perfectly

!

When distributing and massaging, not a single millimeter remains under fire without exfoliation - there are such particles in the gel - they are small, small, I don’t see them, their effect is similar to fine, fine thick sand - these comrades are sooooo teary (in the best sense ) - at the same time strong and not irritating, my skin and I are absolutely delighted

.

I leave the gel on the skin for 5 minutes. (since the composition contains acids, they work additionally - they dissolve fatty plugs) and wash it off. There is a cooling effect on the skin and an incomparable feeling of properly cleansed skin.

This is enough for one face -

I repeat this procedure 1-2 times a week for the entire face or 2-3 times for the T-zone.

Afterwards I apply micellar water (I’ll write about it too!) and a soothing cream.

On ordinary days (it’s summer now, let me remind you) I use sunscreen! This is necessary, because UV radiation and acids are incompatible.

Result.

The first time - I gasped and didn’t believe it! The nose, overgrown with bumps, like an old witch’s, became smooth, the pores noticeably cleared, the area with enlarged pores (gathering around the nose in the form of some kind of terrible fatty bag) noticeably tightened and leveled out. The last time I remember this effect was after an hour-long facial cleansing.

And the first and subsequent times -

1. The scrub gently “removes” the top layer of skin

- the skin becomes thinner (this is not a big plus for me, mine is already see-through), but in general, oily skin is usually thick, so - P L U S!

2. An eraser erases the effects of acne-prone skin.

— scars from the squeeze…. eliminated acne goes away with a bang, evens out the overall appearance.

3. Accelerates the ripening of “nascent” pimples

—

for me this is also a definite plus, because sometimes a thick lump appears under the skin - neither here nor there, no matter what you smear it with, but with a scrub it sooner appears on the surface - and here various executions are already waiting for it.

4. Cleanses pores

- due to the action of acids that dissolve fat. But! Does not discolor blackheads! My skin, of course, looks noticeably better, but I haven’t experienced any discoloration or repainting of blackheads.

5. Be careful! Soothes inflammation.

If there is such a thing as open painful inflammation, either do not rub the area or do not use the gel.

6. Erases small wrinkles

— after 2 months of using a scrub and cream from the same manufacturer, my nasolabial folds practically disappeared, as did the “Where’s the money” wrinkle (it appears when you frown), and the “What’s the money” wrinkles (horizontal wrinkles that appear from raising the eyebrows) also decreased up from sincere surprise).

7. The gel softens and “expels” the poop out

- in places where there are blackheads, after the scrub I rub it with a spatula - this comes out of the skin...

Part of the result -

I've been using it for 2 months.

Diagnosis is one of the best and most effective instant remedies.

The price is 600-700 rubles in pharmacies, I ordered from a foreign website - 421 rubles.

And for the price......

Yes, it’s not very cheap (up until a certain point I only used Oriflame), and even now it’s “reduced” to cheap care - but the effect of cheap products is exactly as much as this very care costs.

But if the condition of the skin does not improve from folk recipes, Russian-Belarusian cosmetics and the ubiquitous Internet, it’s worth trying something more expensive.

Oh, and I felt sorry for these few hundred rubles “for some kind of gel,” I was mentally preparing (and preparing my toad) for the purchase of products costing more than 400 apiece.

But when there is a tangible result... When you see it, in a store in front of a tube or bottle of product for 25 rubles. there are no bouts of hamstering with hope, “what if it helps” - as I had. Now, walking through the store, I don’t want to buy five for twenty-five, because I know that a magnificent Frenchman is waiting for me at home….

Thank you if you are reading these lines

Peelings for home

For those who are afraid of professional acid peels, I advise you to make masks prepared according to folk recipes at home using the products listed above with a high concentration of AHA acids. They are safe, healthy, and also contain vitamins and proteins, which are building materials for cells.

When purchasing ready-made products from the mass market, you should not pay attention to their position in magazine ratings, the advice of friends, or the brand. First of all, you need to study the composition in detail

If the acid content is less than 3%, this peeling will not work. And if it exceeds 10%, there is a high risk of severe irritation of sensitive and problematic skin.

How does Noreva Exfoliac scrub work?

Noreva Exfoliac scrub is specially created to cleanse young and problematic skin, namely, with congestive spots and blackheads. With the help of soft exfoliating microgranules, Exfoliak gently but deeply cleanses the skin, exfoliates dead cells and impurities, gives a healthy color, and makes the skin soft.

Thanks to the fact that Noreva scrub contains fruit AHA acid, blackheads become invisible. From this scrub you immediately get two effects: instant and long-lasting. The Exfoliac scrub instantly cleanses the skin, leaving it smooth and fresh. The prolonged action is associated with AHA acids, which over time even out skin unevenness, smooth out scars, scars and discolor pigment and congestive spots.

List of contraindications

This type of peeling, like all others, has its own list of contraindications that must be taken into account before starting the manipulation. It includes:

• high skin sensitivity;
• individual intolerance to acids or components of the product;
• recent injuries with violation of the integrity of the skin;
• exacerbation of the herpes virus;
• prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays;
• pregnancy and lactation;
• somatic diseases that occur in severe form;
• serious inflammatory processes in places requiring correction.

Precautionary measures

For peeling, you can only use pre-diluted AHA acids - the consistency should be selected by a specialist.

When cleaning yourself, it is important to ensure that the composition does not get on the mucous membrane, and select preparations with a concentration of alpha hydroxy acids of no more than 15% - a larger percentage of this ingredient can harm the skin if the cleaning technique is incorrect.

Contraindications

Contraindications to peeling with the addition of AHA acids:

• individual intolerance to the active or auxiliary components;
• overly sensitive skin;
• dermatitis or eczema;
• carrying a baby or breastfeeding period;
• exacerbation of chronic diseases;
• deterioration of the immune system;
• disturbances in the functioning of the nervous system;
• the presence of ulcers or unhealed wounds;
• active form of herpes;
• recent tan

Before performing peeling, you need to do a test to identify an allergic reaction to the selected drug. To do this, a small amount of the mixture is distributed on the wrist or the bend of the elbow - if after 15 minutes there is no burning, irritation or swelling, you can use a peeling agent.

Side effects and complications

The following side effects may occur after ANA acid peeling:

• slight burning sensation;
• itching;
• feeling of tightness;
• peeling;
• swelling;
• redness.

Expert opinion Ekaterina Dudikova Dermatologist, cosmetologist

If you follow the procedure protocol and recommendations for caring for the dermis during the rehabilitation period, the described symptoms disappear on their own within a few days.

If the cleansing composition is overexposed or the concentration of the active substance is incorrectly selected, complications such as burns, severe swelling, severe pain or pronounced red spots may occur. In this case, you need to visit a cosmetologist or dermatologist who will select restorative therapy.

Step-by-step implementation of the technique

The procedure is completed in about half an hour. It consists of the following stages:

1. Thorough cleansing of the client's facial skin from makeup and other contaminants.
2. Treatment of the epidermis using special compounds that improve the penetration of active ingredients during the procedure.
3. Apply a thin and even layer of acidic composition to the skin using a brush. The areas around the eyes and lips are left free. Its duration of action is from 2 to 10 minutes. At this moment, the patient feels a slight burning and tingling sensation on the skin. If these feelings intensify, you should immediately tell a specialist about it.
4. Applying a neutralizing agent to stop the acid from affecting the skin.
5. Thoroughly wash your face with plenty of running water using a sponge or sponge.
6. Applying a special soothing and anti-inflammatory cream to the skin, designed to care for the epidermis after peeling.

Carrying out the procedure

Before carrying out ANA peeling, you should follow some recommendations. This is necessary in order to get the maximum effect from the procedure and not cause harm to the skin. About two weeks before the procedure, you should reduce your exposure to the sun and avoid visiting solariums. If a person has such an opportunity, then some preparation can be done. The bottom line is that a person should use a cleansing gel, lotion or cream with acids, which a cosmetologist can recommend. Pre-peeling preparation will help to even out the stratum corneum, prepare the skin for AHA peeling and improve the effect of the procedure.

It is worth noting that this can be replaced with several peeling procedures with a small concentration of acid: glycolic or mandelic. After the procedure, it is important to use sunscreen with an SPF factor of at least 30, even if the weather outside is not very sunny. Also, you should not plan a vacation by the sea or visit a solarium for at least the next 2-3 weeks after peeling.

Superficial peeling with fruit acids often takes a short time - about 30 minutes, and consists of several steps:

1. The cosmetologist must thoroughly clean the skin and prepare it for peeling using special products.
2. After this, he must apply acid (gel) to his face and leave it on the skin for about 2-10 minutes. During this period, a person may feel a slight burning and tingling sensation.
3. After this, a neutralizer should be applied to the skin to stop the peeling.
4. The last stage is removing all products from the skin and applying post-peeling cream.

What is chemical AHA facial peeling?

AHA facial peeling is a treatment of the skin with fruit acids. As a result, the stratum corneum of the epidermis begins to peel off, and dead cells are gently removed.

The appearance of the skin becomes blooming, and the surface becomes soft and delicate. The procedure comes from the times of Ancient Egypt and Greece, when people used the juices of fruits, berries, and sugar cane to rejuvenate the skin.

At all times, women make themselves masks from yogurt, strawberries and other natural products. Therefore, AHA peeling is not such a new and modern procedure. It has proven its effectiveness over many centuries.

Features and components

There are several popular types of AHA peels. This is skin cleansing with lactic and glycolic acid. No less often used are the following: lemon, apple, wine. In cosmetology practice, a combination of several acids is used at once.

If you carry out the procedure at home, it is advisable to consult a professional cosmetologist who will evaluate the appearance of the skin and tell you what is best for it at the moment.

Effect on skin

AHA peeling is a kind of chemical burn of the epidermis. In this case, the depth of the burn is controlled by a cosmetologist - everything happens under strict supervision, and acids are taken in the required proportions. Chemical peeling works in such a way that under its influence, regenerative processes are launched in the skin. Cell regeneration accelerates, some visible problems are eliminated, the skin becomes young and blooming, and its relief is evened out.

Also, in addition to all this, acids also affect the sebaceous glands, cleansing their ducts. There is control over the secretion of sebum, due to which:

• the epidermis becomes less oily;
• the risk of pimples and blackheads is reduced.

Fibroblasts are stimulated, skin elasticity and firmness increase. Due to the fact that collagen synthesis becomes higher:

• the epidermis is smoothed out;
• fine wrinkles that indicate age disappear.

Efficiency

AHA chemical peeling gives immediate visible results:

• the skin ceases to be dry, becomes naturally moisturized and softened;
• elasticity increases;
• color improves - the shade is evened out, age spots and inflammation are eliminated, pallor and yellowness disappear;
• small wrinkles are smoothed out, and deep ones become less pronounced and obvious;
• the problem of wide pores is solved - they noticeably narrow, and the number of acne lesions is significantly reduced.

It is worth remembering that superficial peeling cannot solve advanced skin problems, for example:

• tighten sagging;
• correct unclear facial contour;
• erase absolutely all age spots and remove old scars.

Ducray

• Ducray Keracnyl lotion - Ducray Keracnyl lotion glycolic acid 4%, lactic acid *1%, salicylic acid 0.1%
• Ducray Keracnyl - Ducray Keracnyl regulating cream glycolic acid 6%, lactic acid 1%, salicylic acid 0.1%
• Ducray Keracnyl Matifyer - Keracnyl Moisturizing Mattifying Cream glycolic acid *2%, salicylic acid 0.1%
• Ducray Keracnyl - Glycolic acid cleansing gel 4.5%
• Ducray Keracnyl Masque - Triple action mask glycolic acid 4%, salicylic acid 0.2%

As you can see from the picture, the cost ranges from 758 rubles above, each store has its own. I really like the lotion from the Keraknil Line from Ducret, it’s like water and cleanses perfectly.

Indications and contraindications

Good reviews about this type of peeling reassure many women. And their hopes are not in vain. With the help of AHA acids, you can get rid of acne, age-related changes in the epidermis and solve many other problems.

Chemical peeling is necessary in the following cases:

1. If your skin ages quickly, wrinkles or age spots appear.
2. Firmness and elasticity have decreased and folds have appeared.
3. The complexion has deteriorated. The skin has a dull, gray or sallow tone.
4. The epidermis is too dry, causing the skin to peel and become inflamed.
5. The stratum corneum has hardened.
6. The skin is oily due to increased activity of the sebaceous glands, pores are deformed, and sebaceous plugs appear.

It is not recommended to resort to such cosmetic procedures if:

• you are allergic to any of the components of the product;
• the epidermis is too sensitive;
• the integrity of the skin is compromised;
• there is a herpetic rash or purulent inflammation on the face;
• a person spends a long time in the sun.

It is necessary to select a drug with an acid concentration of no more than 15%. In other cases, there will be no positive effect, and the epidermis can be seriously damaged.

Cleansing facial lotion with AHA+BHA “Exfoliac” from NOREVA LED

This is one of the products that helps me fight acne. I probably won’t embellish the reality.)) I love and respect acids, and in my search for another “sour” product, I came across the hero of this post.

The lotion has a rather sharp pharmaceutical-sour smell, quite unpleasant, I must admit, when used it “hits your nose”, it is easily applied with a cotton pad, like any other lotion, but there are some “buts”.

Firstly, this lotion should be used at night, the instructions say “apply morning and evening”, but I just don’t understand how this can be done in the morning, I’ll explain why later. You need to apply the lotion quite quickly and in a thin layer, that is, rubbing the skin with a disc or holding the disc on some area of ​​the face is unacceptable due to a rather strong burning sensation. By the way, my skin is NOT sensitive and quite thick, it reacts normally and even positively to acids, but even I sting very much. This is a minus of the lotion, but seeing the result, I’m ready to be patient. The burning goes away quite quickly, within a couple of minutes, the skin does not turn red and no visible changes occur.

Secondly, the lotion is sticky, it is not thick, but not water-to-water either; after application, a sticky film remains on the skin, which is not felt by the skin of the face; just touching the face, a slight stickiness is felt. There is no need to use cream after the lotion, I have seen many reviews in which girls describe what cream they apply after, but this is not correct. Although this is a lotion, it is a complete evening care. In the morning, the skin is pleasant, soft, the lotion (strangely) does not dry out the skin at all, provided that it is well moisturized in the morning. I use this product in courses of about 10 days. In the evening, wash with lotion. In the morning, as usual, blah blah and moisturizer. I won't even talk about sun protection. After a few days, you probably won’t see any special changes, but using the lotion longer, you will definitely notice that there are fewer inflammations, the old ones have healed very quickly, no new ones have appeared, the face has become less shiny, post-acne scars have lightened, but there is no effect I didn't notice any blackheads. Briefly, the pros and cons of the product: + super economical product, I’ve been using the bottle for about a year in courses, but there’s still half there, if not more + with the right approach it doesn’t dry out the skin at all + I see the result - and this seems to be the main thing.

I see everything that the manufacturer promises. - noticeably stings the skin, the longer you use the lotion, the more the burning - NOT suitable for sensitive skin - sticky - personally, I cannot use the lotion for more than 10-14 days, the skin becomes sensitive, and this is not healthy

I forgive all these disadvantages of this product without hesitation, I will definitely buy more.

Effect of use

Regular use of chemical peeling based on AHA acids and other EXPERT series products allows you to cope with identified deficiencies and slow down their appearance in the future.

EXPERT peeling from Faberlic is an alternative to salon cleanings. After a course of procedures, the skin looks renewed, fresh and healthy, wrinkles and uneven surface texture are partially smoothed out, and pores are narrowed. There is a brightening and alignment of the complexion tone.

To achieve the desired effect, the manufacturer stipulates the frequency of use of EXPERT line products:

• For clients 20+, cleansing should be performed twice a week, alternating between chemical and enzyme peels. Each session must be completed by applying the “SOS Therapy and Recovery” EXPERT cream.
• For clients over 30 years of age, all 3 steps of the ABC program are performed every 3-4 days.
• For mature skin (40+), intensive therapy of 10 procedures is carried out. The first 5 are performed every day, the next 5 every other day. The proposed course is repeated 1–2 times a month.

Why do you need facial gel with acids?

Poor ecology and stress are the number one enemies of our beauty. Dust, exhaust fumes, factory emissions and other negative external factors put the skin under stress. Metabolic processes worsen, complexion becomes dull, early wrinkles appear. Gentle cleansing will help protect your facial skin from premature aging.

How and with what to cleanse your facial skin

• Daily (morning and evening) - a mild cleanser according to your skin type,
• 1-2 times a week - a more intense cleanser with enzymes or acids.

One of the means for regularly cleansing the skin can be a gel with acids. The product will gently remove dead cells, providing the facial skin with a delicate atraumatic peeling. The effect of this procedure is more complex than that of a scrub: you not only get rid of dead skin cells, but also improve the condition of your skin as a whole.

Fruit peeling at home

To achieve optimal and most effective action, experienced cosmetologists recommend combining several acids in one solution.

The beneficial properties of fruit acids for the skin were discovered several thousand years ago.

Previously, they were used exclusively in medicine, but over time (a little over 20 years ago) they began to be successfully used in cosmetology.

The second name for these substances is AHA acids (short for alpha hydroxy acid). They help to quickly and effectively lighten the complexion, remove unwanted pigment spots and even out the complexion.

Those people who suffer from acne, acne or post-acne will also be able to appreciate the effects of alpha hydroxy acids on their skin.

These substances have anti-inflammatory properties, and, in addition, kill bacteria and infections that cause extensive rashes on the face.

This procedure is considered so effective that peeling with fruit acids can even be performed on the scalp.

The cost of ANA peeling will be low - from 500 rubles per session in a small beauty salon to several thousand in a serious large clinic.

Peeling with fruit acids at home is carried out in the following sequence:

1. The skin is cleansed. To do this, you can simply wash your face or use gels that contain alcohol.
2. The prepared mixture is applied to the face. It should remain on the skin for about 10-15 minutes. The main thing is that the exposure time does not exceed a third of an hour.
3. The mask is removed, after which you should wash with warm water.
4. To improve tone, reduce burning, swelling, it is recommended to wipe the skin with ice.
5. To speed up regeneration and moisturize your face, you need to use a nourishing cream.

How to use Noreva Exfoliac Facial Scrub

Exfoliac scrub is used no more than 2-3 times a week at night. It must be applied to clean, slightly damp skin with gentle massaging movements, avoiding the area around the eyes and mucous membranes. You can wash it off immediately, but if you have stagnant spots and a sufficient number of blackheads, leave for 5 minutes (no more, watch the time!) and rinse with warm water.

The skin instantly becomes smooth, fresh, and breathable. If you overdo this peeling on your face, your skin may get burned. For dry and sensitive skin, after scrubbing, apply a non-comedogenic moisturizing cream after 10 minutes. This peeling is recommended to be done in the evening before bed.

How much does Noreva Exfoliac Facial Scrub cost?

Because Noreva cosmetics offers professional products in the field of skin cleansing, but it is not as advertised as Vichy, and its cost is much lower. The average price for a tube of Exfoliac scrub is about 750 rubles. This tube is enough for 2-3 months of regular use.

Types of AHA peeling: features

AHA peeling can be divided into two categories - depending on the type of acid, as well as the depth of impact. Depending on how severe the skin problem is, as well as personal characteristics, the doctor selects a substance to apply to the skin.

Before starting the first stage, the skin must be prepared. The cosmetologist evaluates the skin, analyzes its problems, and also identifies the presence of allergies to certain compounds. Only after this the composition itself is selected. As a rule, additional vitamins A and E are added to the composition, which help rid the skin of excess toxins and tone it. And to soften the effects, hyaluronic acid is introduced.

AHA peeling can also be performed at home. To do this, it is enough to purchase a special product intended for home procedures. The main thing is that you must choose a product that will not burn your skin. Choose gentle products that are gentle on the skin.

Peeling with fruit acid is carried out in the following sequence:

• First the skin is cleansed. To do this, just wash your face or use a gel containing alcohol.
• After this, the prepared mixture is applied to the face. Leave it on the skin for 10-15 minutes. The most important thing is not to exceed 20 minutes
• Then the mask is removed, and the residue is removed with warm water.
• To improve skin tone, reduce burning and swelling, it is recommended to wipe the skin with an ice cube
• To speed up skin renewal, moisturize your face. A nourishing cream is best suited for these purposes.

Possible side effects

When performing AXA peels using natural fruit acids, the following adverse reactions of the body can be observed:

• local irritation of the epidermis - itching, discomfort, burning;
• areas of the skin become darker in color;
• swelling appears, which goes away in one day;
• the skin becomes more sensitive to air temperature and exposure to the sun;
• the peeling process increases;
• the appearance of mini-burns, microtraumas that pass very quickly;
• there is a feeling of tightness and, in places, dryness.

Peeling should occur after peeling - this is a natural reaction of the skin. It can last up to 10 days. Not every acid causes active peeling. For example, milk and glycolic products rarely give such an effect.

Exfoliac

• Exfoliak-Noreva Lotion glycolic acid 12.25%, salicylic acid 1%
• Exfoliak-Noreva Acnomega 100 glycolic acid 6%, 1.3% – other esters, salicylic acid 2.5%
• Exfoliak-Noreva Acnomega 200 glycolic acid 9.88%, 2.42% – other esters, salicylic acid 2.5%
• Exfoliak-Noreva Exfoliating gel (scrub/peeling) glycolic acid 10.2%, lactic acid *4%
• Exfoliak-Noreva Cleansing foaming gel with AHA lactic acid 4.7%

Effect

If you choose the right composition of an AHA peel, you can obtain the following results:

1. Acceleration of metabolism in cells.
2. Normalization of water-fat balance.
3. Elimination of imperfections of the epidermis.
4. Skin softening.

After an AHA peel, the skin becomes sensitive to ultraviolet radiation, so it must be performed in winter or autumn. Acids must be diluted; they are not used in their pure form.

It is important that the product does not get on the mucous membranes. Before the event, you need to familiarize yourself with the composition, expiration date and ask for a quality certificate

Women who have already performed the procedure are advised to do this.

Often people tolerate such peels well. When a cosmetologist applies the substance to the skin, the person is not bothered by painful sensations, only a slight burning sensation is felt.

However, there is still a possible risk of side effects. If you look at the reviews, you will notice that a small percentage of people complain of burns or an allergic reaction.

Such negative consequences are rare. Basically, after the procedure, the skin may turn red, peeling and tightness may appear. This is a normal reaction to exposure to acids.

At home

First, it is recommended to visit a beauty salon to find out the recommendations of a specialist. Don't rush and grab the first remedy you come across. It is necessary to take into account your skin type, its condition, and even the time of year. A cosmetologist can help you choose the appropriate option. By regularly exfoliating your skin at home, you can achieve good results.

First of all, the sensitivity of the skin to the drug is checked. Make a small concentration and apply to a small part of the skin. If even a slight allergic reaction occurs, further manipulations cannot be carried out.

If the outcome is positive, peeling is carried out, gradually increasing the concentration of acids. It should be remembered that 25 percent is the maximum possible concentration; you cannot risk your health.

The procedure is the same as in salons. Also, the facial skin is pre-cleansed, the drug is applied and then washed off. There is no need to keep fruit acids for more than the prescribed time. If any discomfort occurs, it is better to immediately rinse the skin under running water.

For modern fashionistas, pharmacies sell special preparations for doing fruit peeling yourself at home. They already contain a small percentage of acid concentration. In order not to make a mistake in your choice, you need to choose products from well-known and trusted manufacturers, and also check the expiration date of the drug.

Many people use masks made from natural products as peeling. Their advantage is that they are safer and milder. In addition, such products are usually always on hand. The simplest of them are grapes, lemon, apple. Fruits from the tropics are often used - pineapple, papaya and others.

Expert advice

But it is important to understand that you should not use acids with a concentration of more than 10% yourself.

Cosmetologists have the right to work with more concentrated peels - up to 70% acid. And, naturally, the stronger the composition, the higher the effectiveness of the procedure. So you should not expect a particularly obvious effect from home peeling - for this it is better to go to a salon, where they will select an ingredient for your skin type and solve all problems regarding the health of the epidermis.

Peeling procedure

AHA peeling requires preliminary preparation of the skin. To do this, weak concentrations of acid are applied to the skin for 2-3 weeks. In the same way, you can determine the presence of allergies.

The effectiveness of peeling depends on the time of exposure of the acid to the skin. The procedure is carried out according to the standard scheme for chemical peels:

1. Cleansing and degreasing the skin.
2. Application of the active substance.
3. Application of neutralizer.
4. Complete the procedure with a moisturizing mask or cream.

During the application of acid, a burning sensation is felt. The doctor must determine the duration of exposure in order to achieve a good result and not cause harm to the skin.

There are products on sale that are designed for AHA peeling at home. However, peelings with acids with a concentration higher than 20% can only be carried out in a salon.

After peeling

Acids cause chemical burns to the skin, but they do not penetrate deeply. Therefore, this type of peeling does not require a long recovery period.

During the day, redness of the skin is observed, then peeling begins.

Skin care rules are standard - moisturizers and sunscreens for protection.
