Hoe werkt een peeling precies?

Een peeling verwijdert gecontroleerd de bovenste huidlagen met AHA-, BHA- of TCA-zuren. Dit stimuleert celvernieuwing, verfijnt poriën en maakt de huid gladder en egaler.

Doet een chemische peeling pijn?

Een chemische peeling kan kort tintelen, prikken of warm aanvoelen. Dit is normaal en duurt meestal maar enkele minuten. Oppervlakkige peelings voelen zeer mild aan.

Welke peeling past het beste bij mijn huid?

Fruitzuurpeelings zijn ideaal bij onzuiverheden en grove poriën, terwijl chemische peelings beter werken bij pigmentvlekken, zonneschade en huidveroudering.

Hoe snel zie ik resultaat?

De huid oogt direct frisser en stralender. Voor pigment, littekentjes en fijne lijntjes zie je het beste resultaat na een kuur van meerdere peelings.

Mag je in de zon na een peeling?

Nee, bij de meeste peelings niet. Overleg altijd met de betreffende specialist en bescherm je huid altijd met SPF 30–50 en vermijd direct zonlicht, zeker na een chemische peeling.

Is een peeling geschikt voor de gevoelige huid?

Ja, maar dan wordt gekozen voor een milde oppervlakkige of enzymatische peeling die de huid niet irriteert.

Hoe vaak mag je een peeling doen?

Een milde peeling kan elke 2 weken, intensievere chemische peelings worden meestal eens per 4–8 weken uitgevoerd.

Wat moet je vermijden na een peeling?

Vermijd sauna, intensief sporten, exfoliërende producten, retinol en direct zonlicht

Kun je een peeling combineren met andere huidbehandelingen?

Ja. Peelings combineren goed met LED-therapie, hydraterende maskers of microneedling.

Is een peeling veilig tijdens zwangerschap of borstvoeding?

Milde fruitzuurpeelings zijn vaak veilig, maar intensieve chemische peelings worden doorgaans afgeraden.

Krijg je vervelling na een peeling?

Bij milde peelings vervel je meestal niet. Bij intensievere peelings kan lichte schilfering optreden — dit hoort bij het huidvernieuwingsproces.

Wat is het verschil tussen een gezichtspeeling en een chemische peeling?

Een gezichtspeeling is een algemene exfoliatiebehandeling. Een chemische peeling werkt dieper en pakt pigment, rimpeltjes en huidstructuur intensiever aan.

How does a peeling work?

A peeling is a skin-improving treatment in which the upper layers or the skin are exfoliated in a controlled manner. This removes dead skin cells and stimulates natural cell renewal. The skin looks fresher, smoother and more even. Depending on the type or peeling, the intensity and depth or the effect differs.

During a professional peeling, skin type, skin condition and objectives are always taken into account. This way, the treatment is fully tailored to what your skin needs.

Superficial peeling

A superficial peeling works on the top layer or the skin (epidermis). This peeling removes dead skin cells and gently stimulates the skin to renew itself. The treatment is comfortable, has little to no recovery time and is very suitable as a first introduction to peels or for sensitive skin. The result is a fresh appearance, refine coarse pores and you get a more even complexion without the skin visibly peeling.

Fruit acid peeling (AHA / BHA)

A fruit acid peeling contains acids such as AHA (alpha hydroxy acids) and BHA (beta hydroxy acids) that have a deeper effect on the skin structure and pores. This peeling stimulates cell renewal more intensively and refines the skin texture.

AHA acids mainly work on the skin surface and are suitable for... dull and gray complexion and fine lines. BHA acids penetrate deeper into the pores and are ideal for impure or oily skin. After the treatment, the skin may temporarily be red or slightly flaky, which is part or the natural renewal process.

Chemical peeling

A chemical peel works deeper into the skin and is always carried out on the basis or a professional skin analysis. This peeling intensively stimulates the production or new skin cells and supports skin improvement on a structural level.

The treatment focuses on skin aging, pigmentation, sun damage and uneven skin structure. Depending on the intensity, the skin may visibly peel for several days. The result is visibly smoother, more even and refined skin with improved skin quality in the longer term.

Complete facial peeling (total skin improvement)

A complete facial peeling combines multiple techniques and acids for a complete skin reset. Skin structure, complexion and appearance are addressed in one treatment. This treatment is tailored to the skin purpose and can consist or a combination or exfoliation, active ingredients and restorative care. The skin looks fresher, smoother and more radiant afterwards, with a visibly refined and more even appearance.
