Cold peeling

What is a cold peeling?

Cold peeling is a cosmetic procedure that aims to remove the outer layer of damaged or dead skin, and stimulate the growth of new, healthier, and fresher cells. This type of peeling is gentle on the skin and does not cause severe irritation or redness, making it suitable for all skin types, even sensitive ones.

How does cold peeling work?

Cold peeling relies on the use of different substances that gently exfoliate the outer layer of the skin. These substances also stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, the two proteins responsible for the elasticity and radiance of the skin.
