Peeling is the process of removing dead skin cells from the outer layer of the skin. If not done correctly, it can damage the skin, so it is important to choose the method suitable for your skin type.

Choosing Peeling by Skin Type

• Dry Skin: Use moisturizing products, 1-2 times a week.
• Oily Skin: Products containing alpha or beta acids can be used, up to 5 times a week.
• Normal Skin: Can be done 2-3 times a week. Mild acid-containing products like granulated sugar or crushed apricot kernels are suitable.
• Combination Skin: Focus on the T-zone, and peel dry areas less frequently.

Types of Peeling

• Chemical Peeling: Skin rejuvenation method using chemical solutions. Can be superficial, medium, or deep.
  • Superficial: For fine wrinkles, acne scars.
  • Medium: Removes the upper part of the epidermis and dermis, for wrinkles and scars.
  • Deep: Removes the deeper layers of the dermis, for deep wrinkles and scars.
• Physical Peeling: Mechanical method using brushes, sponges, or pumice stones.
