BCN Chemical Peeling

BCN Peel #01 - Acne Prone

BCN Peel #01 is a chemical peel that combines mandelic acid (AHA) with salicylic acid (BHA). It is known for its keratolytic, astringent, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory effects. It also balances sebum production and neutralizes Propionibacterium acnes, preventing acne infections. BCN Peel #01 is designed for the treatment of active acne and reduction of superficial scars.

• Salicylic Acid: With a concentration of 15%, this beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) has keratolytic, astringent, and antimicrobial properties. It is effective in treating acne by cleansing pores, reducing excess sebum, and combating bacteria that cause infections.

• Mandelic Acid: With a concentration of 15%, this alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) also has keratolytic properties. It helps exfoliate the skin, promote cell renewal, and reduce superficial scars caused by acne.

BCN Peel #02 - Anti-Ageing

BCN Peel #02 – Anti-Ageing is an advanced chemical exfoliation designed to combat signs of aging. This product combines two powerful alpha hydroxy acids (AHA): mandelic acid and glycolic acid, providing a comprehensive rejuvenating effect.

Key Ingredients:

• Mandelic Acid (20%): With a larger molecular structure than other AHAs, it penetrates the stratum corneum more slowly, minimizing irritation and itching. This acid is known for its ability to increase the synthesis of collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycans in the papillary dermis, improving skin elasticity and firmness.

• Glycolic Acid (30%): With a small molecular structure, this acid has significant transepidermal penetration ability. Its keratolytic activity promotes the exfoliation of the superficial layers of the stratum corneum, stimulates cell renewal, and promotes the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans. Additionally, it increases epidermal moisture levels and enhances the skin's natural barrier function.

For anti-aging

Ingredients:

• Concentration of Mandelic Acid: 20%

• Concentration of Glycolic Acid: 30%

• pH: 1.5 - 2.5

Specific benefits:

• Rejuvenation and Elasticity: Increases the synthesis of collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycans, restoring skin elasticity and firmness.

• Gentle Exfoliation: Mandelic acid penetrates slowly and minimizes irritation while promoting effective exfoliation.

• Cell Stimulation: Glycolic acid stimulates cell renewal and improves skin texture and radiance.

• Deep Hydration: Enhances epidermal moisture levels, increases moisture retention, and strengthens the skin barrier.

Contraindications:

• Sensitivity: Do not use on damaged or inflamed skin.

• Allergies: Avoid use if you are allergic to any of the ingredients.

• Special Conditions: Not recommended for pregnant women or breastfeeding mothers.

• Sun Protection: It is important to use sun protection during and after the treatment to avoid UV damage.

BCN Peel #03 - Depigmentant

BCN Peel #03 – Depigmenting is an advanced chemical peel that combines three powerful alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs): lactic acid, mandelic acid, and glycolic acid. This unique formula is designed to treat hyperpigmentation and provide a more even and radiant skin tone.

Key Ingredients:

Lactic Acid (20%): Breaks down protein bonds between corneocytes, leading to their separation and reduction of the hyperkeratotic stratum corneum thickness. Stimulates the production of collagen and glycosaminoglycans, which has a naturally moisturizing effect on the skin and improves barrier function.

Mandelic Acid (20%): With a larger molecular structure than other AHAs, it penetrates the stratum corneum slowly and requires a longer exposure time. This increases the synthesis of collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycans in the papillary dermis.

Glycolic Acid (20%): Highly tolerated by the skin and with a small molecular size, glycolic acid has excellent transepidermal penetration capacity. Its keratolytic activity promotes exfoliation of the superficial layers of the stratum corneum, stimulates cell renewal, and improves the skin's natural barrier function.

For depigmentation

Ingredients:

• Concentration of Lactic Acid: 20%

• Concentration of Mandelic Acid: 20%

• Concentration of Glycolic Acid: 20%

• pH: 1.5 - 2.5

Specifika fördelar:

• Effective Depigmentation: Promotes even dispersion of melanin, inhibits the activity of tyrosinase, and blocks melanogenesis.

• Antioxidant and Regenerative: Possesses antioxidant properties and stimulates the skin's natural regeneration processes.

• Moisturizing and Strengthening: Increases the skin's moisture levels, strengthens the skin's barrier function, and improves the skin's texture and appearance.

Kontraindikationer:

• Känslighet: Använd inte på skadad eller inflammerad hud.

• Allergier: Undvik användning om du är allergisk mot någon av ingredienserna.
