With the arrival of autumn, our skin often reflects the cumulative effects of summer: hours of sun exposure, intense heat, chlorine from swimming pools and salt from the sea. All of this can result in a duller tone, more visible blemishes or uneven texture.
That’s why this season is the perfect time to restore your skin’s vitality and radiance with an effective treatment such as a facial peel.
What is a facial peel?
A facial peel is a dermo-aesthetic procedure designed to renew the skin’s surface through the controlled application of an exfoliating solution. This substance removes the most superficial layers of the epidermis, stimulating cell regeneration and promoting the production of collagen and elastin.
There are different types of peels — superficial, medium or deep — that are adapted to each skin type and need. From the mildest, ideal for adding radiance and freshness, to the most intense, recommended for treating blemishes, scars or more pronounced wrinkles. In all cases, the goal is the same: to improve texture, even out tone and restore a healthy, radiant appearance to the face.
Why is autumn the ideal time for a peel?
One of the key recommendations after undergoing a peel is to avoid direct sun exposure, as the skin is more sensitive during the regeneration process. In autumn, solar radiation decreases, the days are shorter and we spend less time outdoors, which considerably reduces the risk of pigmentation or irritation. This makes recovery safer and more comfortable.
In addition, after the summer, the skin is usually thicker, dehydrated and has an excess of accumulated dead cells. Having a peel at this time of year removes this ‘veil’ of impurities, resulting in a more even, luminous complexion that is more receptive to the cosmetic treatments we apply afterwards, making our cosmetics more effective. This prepares the skin to face the winter in better condition.
Peels not only improve the immediate appearance of the face, but also strengthen the skin barrier, increasing its ability to retain water and defend itself against external aggressions.
Professional and personalised treatment
Although peels may seem like a simple treatment, their correct application requires experience and dermatological knowledge. Each skin type responds differently and needs a specific formulation, so it is essential to put yourself in the hands of professionals who can assess your skin characteristics and establish the most appropriate protocol.
