The alpha-beta peel is a targeted way to treat moderate to severe acne breakouts. This is actually 2 chemical peels in one treatment. First, we begin with the alpha peel, which is 30% glycolic acid. Glycolic acid is an AHA (alphahydroxy acid) that does the following:
-Desquamates (breaks down the bonds that hold skin cells together) skin cells
-Exfoliates
-Softens
-Reduces keratinization
-Treats mild to moderate acne
-Minimizes pore size
The alpha peel is then neutralized and the beta peel is applied. The BHA (betahydroxy acid) peel is 20% salicylic acid which kills the P. acnes bacteria and does the following:
-Resurfaces and refines the skin and pores
-Removes oil and debris
-Excellent antioxidant
-Inhibits inflammation
This part of the peel is hot! You will be fanned for the 5-8 minutes the peel is on the skin and then it will be removed. Following the peel removal, SPF will be applied.
With the alpha-beta peel expect for the skin to begin peeling in 3-5 days. Peeling should last for several days to a week.
More than one peel is usually needed to achieve desired results.
