Post-laser peeling is used especially in the treatment of skin problems such as pigment spots, acne scars, sun damage and wrinkles. With superficial peeling applications, new and healthy cells in the lower layers of the skin are revealed. In this way, the skin is provided with a smoother, brighter and younger appearance.
The peeling process is a very important step for the renewal and recovery of the skin after laser treatment. During the application, dead cells and pigmentation in the upper layer of the skin are removed, thus achieving a healthier and livelier skin.
