Chemical peels are a method of controlled exfoliation used in aesthetic and therapeutic cosmetology to regulate keratinization processes and improve skin structure and quality. Treatments based on acids trigger a predictable biological response that leads to epidermal renewal.
This course presents chemical peels as treatment procedures that require a knowledgeable and controlled approach to working with the skin and chemical acids. Particular emphasis is placed on selecting the appropriate peel for the skin condition, controlling exposure time, ensuring treatment safety, and combining peels into structured therapeutic protocols. The program guides you step by step through the procedure and teaches how to work according to consistent and safe treatment protocols.
