Cosmopeel Forte is a superficial peel containing powerful exfoliating agents combining trichloroacetic acid (TCA), phenol and glycolic acid. It is currently one of the most effective peels in the superficial peel category. It is perfect for safely combating light phototype skin ageing (phototypes I, II and III).

Benefits

  • Reducing fine linesCosmopeel Forte: thanks to the accelerated cell renewal it induces, Cosmopeel Forte stimulates deep collagen production, helping to reduce fine lines.
  • Fades spots and improves skin toneCosmopeel Forte's highly exfoliating action can be used to treat pigmentation spots (sun spots).
  • Improved skin texture : Cosmopeel Forte's powerful exfoliating agents (TCA, Phenol and glycolic acid) make it one of the most effective peels in the superficial peel category, helping to combat skin ageing naturally.

During the session

The Cosmopeel Forte peel may be carried out after a prior medical consultation, to ensure that it is the right treatment for your needs and expectations.

On the day of the treatment, your skin is cleansed. The skin's surface is then cleansed using compresses soaked in ethanol or acetone. This pre-peel is immediately followed by the application of Cosmopeel Forte. Once the peel is complete, a compress soaked in very cold water is placed on the face to stop the sensation of heat induced by the peel.

From the day after treatment, the skin feels cardboardy, tight and may be itchy. The face may be swollen. On the second day, brownish spots will appear all over the face and the skin will then peel for about 7 days. It is important not to pull on the peeling skin, but to moisturise the skin regularly with the cream recommended by the doctor.

Results

Thanks to the accelerated cell renewal it induces, Cosmopeel Forte stimulates deep collagen production, enabling it to act on fine lines - a phenomenon that lasts for many months. The combination of phenol, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and glycolic acid ensures a visible improvement in skin texture, radiance and luminosity.
