Acnelan Peeling

Acne vulgaris is caused by an excess of androgens (male sex hormones) that promote an increase in sebum production. This triggers a blockage of the skin’s pores consisting of sebum and dead skin cells.

Clogging creates an environment where acne bacteria have the opportunity to multiply, which is seen on the skin as pimples, pustules (pus in the skin) and blackheads.

The treatment consists of a series of high-tech steps, which you can read more about below.

1. Clean

The skin is thoroughly cleansed with a cleansing mousse containing urea and chlorhexidine, which inhibits the growth of bacteria, while also calming and soothing the skin. Impurities and excess fat are removed. The skin is now degreased, so the peeling penetrates even deeper into the skin.

2. Acnelan peeling

The Acnelan peeling itself is completely unique, as it contains a combination of different acids primarily extracted from fruit: salicylic acid, shikimic acid and mandelic acid as well as sodium lepargilate.

In contrast to regular beautician peels, the Acnelan peel contains medicinal concentrations of fruit acid, which act as a vacuum cleaner in the pores. The skin is deep-cleansed thoroughly, at the same time as a peeling process is initiated in the skin.

The peeling stings a little, which intensifies when it is subsequently neutralized and removed. The dwindling and burning sensation is gone approx. 30 seconds after the neutralization of the peeling. The skin will subsequently begin to peel off the old acne-plagued skin, so that the skin becomes clearer and more uniform.

3. Post- Peel Crystal Fiber Mask

Post – Peel Crystal Fiber Mask is applied to the skin – the latest generation of facial masks designed to improve the cell renewal process, improve the hydrolipidic film in the epidermis and significantly increase the skin’s moisture levels. The mask contains hyaluronic acid and seaweed extract, which moisturize and soothe the skin.

The mask is made of crystal fibers, a material for medical use based on 3D nanofibers and is 100% natural, safe and hygienic. The mask adapts to the contours of the face and has an occlusive (sealing) effect that improves permeability and leads the active ingredients down into the deep layers of the skin.

4. Pore Sealing Shield

After the Post- Peel Crystal Fiber Mask, Pore Sealing is applied to the skin Shield – an ampoule consisting of moisturizing factors that seal the skin so that the ingredients from the mask penetrate even deeper into the leather skin.

5. Sunscreen with a high physical filter

Finish with an oil-free sunscreen with a high physical filter. It is important to use sunscreen the following week, when the skin will be more sensitive than usual.

The treatment requires statutory prior consultation

Before you can be treated with an Acnelan peeling, you must enter the clinic for a statutory prior consultation. As there is no requirement for reflection time, a consultation can be held in connection with your first treatment.

At Derma Solution, we have many years of experience in treating acne, and we can offer exactly the treatment that suits you best – and where we can achieve the best results.

Consultation.

Here you will be asked about the concerns you have and what you want with the treatment. In dialogue with the therapist, we will find the optimal solution for you. A good tip is also to write down any questions you have before you come to the consultation.

Consideration period

There is no requirement for reflection time, and the consultation can therefore be held in connection with your first treatment.

How long is the downtime for treatment?

After the treatment, the skin will feel dry and tight for the first few days, but it will look more or less normal. You can go to work.

The skin starts peeling around the mouth on the 2nd day. After this, you start peeling on the cheeks and finally on the forehead. The skin typically peels between the 2nd and 5th day. So, if you do the treatment on a Wednesday-Thursday, you will look nice on Monday.

The treatment is suitable for men and women of all ages and is aimed at those who suffer from acne.

You cannot be treated with Acnelan if:

• You are pregnant or breastfeeding
• You are allergic to some of the ingredients in Acnelan
• You will receive radiotherapy
• You have a herpes outbreak

Acnelan treatment is designed to be effective while minimizing downtime. However, the specific downtime can vary depending on the individual’s skin type, the severity of the acne, and the treatment protocol used. Here’s what you can generally expect in terms of downtime after an Acnelan treatment:

Typical Downtime

1. Redness and Swelling:

   • Duration: Redness and mild swelling usually occur immediately after the treatment and may last for 1-3 days.
   • Description: The skin may appear slightly red and feel sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. This is a normal reaction to the chemical peel and should subside within a few days.

2. Peeling:

   • Duration: Peeling typically starts around 2-3 days after the treatment and can last for up to 7 days.
   • Description: You may experience visible peeling or flaking of the skin as dead skin cells are shed. This is a natural part of the exfoliation process and helps to reveal fresher, clearer skin.

3. Discomfort:

   • Duration: Any discomfort or tightness usually lasts for a few days.
   • Description: The skin may feel dry or tight, but this should improve with the use of recommended moisturizers and hydrating products.

Managing Downtime

• Avoid Direct Sun Exposure: The treated skin will be more sensitive to sunlight, so it’s important to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher and avoid direct sun exposure as much as possible.

• Follow Aftercare Instructions: Adhere to any specific aftercare instructions provided by your skincare professional, including using recommended moisturisers and avoiding certain skincare products.

• Gentle Skincare Routine: Use gentle, non-irritating skincare products. Avoid exfoliating or using harsh products that could further irritate the skin.

• Avoid Makeup: It’s best to avoid using makeup during the initial days following the treatment to allow the skin to heal properly.

• Hydration: Keep the skin well-hydrated with non-comedogenic moisturisers to support the healing process and alleviate dryness.

Potential Variations

• Individual Response: Some individuals may experience more or less downtime based on their skin type, the depth of the chemical peel used, and their overall skin health.

• Severity of Acne: More severe cases may result in longer downtime or more pronounced peeling.

When to Resume Normal Activities

• Work and Social Activities: Most people can resume normal activities immediately after the treatment, although they might want to plan for a few days of redness and peeling.

• Exercise: It’s generally advisable to avoid intense exercise and sweating for the first 1-2 days post-treatment to prevent irritation and inflammation.

Consultation and Follow-Up

• Follow-Up Appointments: Attend any recommended follow-up appointments to monitor progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

Overall, while Acnelan treatment is designed to minimize downtime, being mindful of aftercare and allowing your skin to properly heal will help achieve the best results with minimal discomfort.
