Cocktail of youth or what makes Hollywood peeling unique

Peeling from Hollywood?

Hollywood peeling is a chemical superficial peeling with a predominance of phytic acid in the composition of the drug. Advantages - there are no age restrictions, it does not depend on the season and the procedure can be done at any time. Therefore, the service is very popular among Hollywood stars (hence the name). Peeling gently exfoliates dead skin cells, restoring the skin's ability to breathe and improving complexion. Phytic acid removes harmful metal ions, the cause of inflammation and pigmentation, and the skin once again glows with health and freshness.

But compliance with safety measures during the process is a necessary condition. To avoid getting burned, you shouldn’t get too carried away with Hollywood peeling: after all, it’s a chemical peel. It is recommended to use only the services of qualified cosmetologists: they select the optimal number of sessions and timing.

The frequency of the procedure is slightly higher than other peels, and this is its advantage. The cells of the upper layer of skin will be constantly renewed, and the skin remains elastic and fresh. The procedure takes forty minutes and does not cause any noticeable discomfort.

Complete cell renewal occurs after just six sessions. The skin becomes velvety to the touch and the tone is evened out. Pores are reduced, the skin is protected from the appearance of acne and oily shine. It smooths out and inflammation goes away. There is virtually no healing time required. Even in summer you can perform a similar procedure.

In general, the best option is to carry out Hollywood peeling in a salon. The procedure is much more effective and noticeable. The risk of overexposure and burns is minimized. You can, of course, achieve freshness and younger-looking skin at home. But without practice and phytic acid, this is very difficult.

Succinic acid is also added to the complex for rejuvenation. It supports cells, preventing premature death, stimulates metabolism and improves skin immunity. In their pure form, such acids are, however, rarely used. Professional cosmetics from leading manufacturers are preferable.

What is the mechanism of skin cleansing during Hollywood peeling?

As already mentioned, the special products used for this procedure include weak acids. Phytic acid is mainly used. When applied to the skin, it begins to fold tissue proteins, forms salts by combining with metal ions and their oxides, and has a degreasing effect. As a result of these chemical processes, epidermal cells die and are subsequently very easily removed from the skin, exposing its inner young layers.

Manufacturers include various types of active additives in some of the formulations used for Hollywood cleaning. For example, succinic acid activates energy metabolism inside cells, and L-retinol (vitamin A) stimulates the processes of protein building and cell renewal

Types of peeling

Hollywood peeling includes yellow peeling, retinoic peeling, calcium chloride and soap peeling, and phytin peeling. Yellow is very similar to phytin. The mixture applied to the face includes both phytin (it is the main component!) and retinoic acid, and the composition of retinoic peeling, along with retinoic acid, includes phytic acid as the main component. Retinoic acid temporarily gives a yellowish tint to the skin. Contraindications for all types of Hollywood peeling are the same.

Penetration of phytic acid is superficial. Only the epidermis layer is destroyed, no damage is caused to the lower layers. Therefore, of all types of peeling, Hollywood peeling is considered the safest for the skin. It is recommended to carry out the procedure when:

• age and facial wrinkles,
• fading dull skin,
• the presence of hyperpigmentation and photoaging,
• for scars, acne and post-acne,
• as an anti-aging agent,
• with increased sebum secretion,
• to stimulate collagen production.

It is recommended to carry out at least once a year.
You should not sunbathe for a month after the procedure. It is advisable to conduct the session without makeup, and after completing the peeling, follow all the specialist’s recommendations. Contraindicated for:

• acute skin allergies, inflammations,
• in the presence of skin diseases,
• with exacerbation of chronic skin diseases.
• during herpes,
• during periods of pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Positive influence

When performing cosmetic manipulation, calcium chloride interacts with soluble potassium and sodium salts. As a result, a film of water-insoluble calcium salts appears on the surface of the integument. After this, they roll off the skin, due to which they exfoliate skin cells from the surface of the epidermis layer.

Also, higher tricarbonate acids are needed for manipulation, and they are contained in solid natural soap. If you are planning to carry out Hollywood facial cleansing, then you should use only natural baby soap, which contains vegetable or animal fats without additives or impurities. If you use cosmetics for washing - foams, gels, then you will not be able to achieve the necessary reaction in this case.

When components such as calcium chloride and natural soap react, salts appear on the surface of the skin. Thanks to them, we can highlight the following positive characteristics of Hollywood peeling:

• lightening of the skin of the face;
• exfoliation and rolling off of dead skin cells;
• tightening of the epidermis and narrowing of enlarged pores;
• normalization of the performance of the sebaceous glands, elimination of oily gloss;
• cleansing pores of oily shine and dirt;
• drying out small pimples and inflammation.

But it is not always possible to achieve a positive effect, since there are a number of contraindications for carrying out the manipulation:

• thin, dry skin;
• the presence of acne, inflammation of a large lesion, purulent acne;
• During pregnancy and breastfeeding;
• skin damage by virus, bacteria and fungi;
• skin dehydration;
• the presence of wounds, scratches, ulcers and other defects on the skin; an allergic reaction to one of the ingredients of the Hollywood peeling mask;
• fresh tan; skin burn that occurred recently.

Carrying out

Peeling begins as usual, with skin cleansing and makeup removal. After this, a special solution of several acids is applied to the skin to exfoliate dead cells. This is followed by a mask made mainly of phytic acid. This alternation helps to achieve a fresh-looking skin.

After this, you can go home and after a day, wash off the remaining products on the skin with cosmetic milk or gel with plenty of water. There may be a slight tingling and slight burning sensation. They will disappear after a few minutes. Immediately after completion of the procedure, the skin is transformed, becoming smooth and acquiring a soft pink tint.

After a day, tightness appears due to the death of the upper layer of skin, and after three days peeling becomes more active. A week passes - the skin is completely renewed, fresh, becomes elastic, facial wrinkles disappear, and appears as if glowing from within. To obtain the most lasting effect, a minimum of three procedures are required with a two-week interval between each.

During the peeling course, it is important to use a moisturizer and make masks with enzymes. When peeling in the summer, a sunscreen with a high SPF factor (not lower than 50) is required.

Review #1

I'm satisfied with the effect, I give it five stars. I think it’s better to spend money on such a procedure in a salon once, and really notice the effect, than to spend many thousands of rubles on all kinds of creams - and not notice the effect... In general, in a year I’ll do another peeling like this!!

Review #2

Overall, I liked the Retinoic Peeling procedure. Even in the absence of pigmentation, it can help many. After peeling, the skin is evened out, renewed, smooth and clean. After the first procedure, acne noticeably goes away, pores narrow, and pimples heal. But I advise you to do only the type of peeling in which you go home with the applied composition! And the option in which the cosmetologist bakes the skin incredibly and immediately washes off the composition is better not to use. And most importantly, don’t forget sun protection, otherwise all your efforts will be in vain.

Review #3

There is definitely a result. For the problems that I had, it was an ideal option. The skin has tightened for sure. The pores have shrunk, even unusually. The skin seems to be tightened (not in sensation, but in appearance), those bumps that I complained about have leveled out. Not perfect, but noticeable to me. The complexion has evened out. The skin is the most delicate, you constantly want to touch it.

Hollywood peeling at home

You can perform an analogue of Hollywood peeling at home. The skin is guaranteed to be fresher and the complexion will noticeably improve. To carry out the procedure, you will need five percent calcium chloride in ampoules and baby soap without fragrances or impurities.

Only when it interacts with calcium chloride, exfoliating dead salt cells are formed, tightening enlarged pores. The procedure will completely eliminate oily sheen and the skin will become matte. The pores are cleansed, and minor inflammations and pimples are dried out.

You can perform a home chemical peel with calcium chloride to cleanse and tighten the pores of combination and oily skin. At the same time, the procedure is contraindicated for dry thin skin, especially with exacerbations of acne and extensive inflammation.

Skin diseases, dehydration, injuries, allergies to peeling components, pregnancy and breastfeeding, fresh tanning or skin burns are contraindications.

Before starting a home chemical peel, you should carefully examine your skin to make sure there are no wounds. Even a small scratch can cause a burn. Therefore, it is better to wait for complete healing, and only after that carry out peeling. Start with a five percent solution. You can switch to ten percent only gradually so that the skin gets used to the effects.

For combination skin, you can apply the drug to oily areas and the T-zone. For dry areas, the amount of solution is minimal, and it is better not to apply the product at all. Around the eyes, along the red border of the lips, the area of ​​the upper lip to the nose are areas where peeling cannot be carried out. An allergy test is required before the first procedure. The solution is applied to a small area of ​​the back or arm. If after a few hours no unpleasant signs appear, then you can apply it to your face.

The solution can only be applied to dry skin. If a strong burning sensation occurs while sawing, you must thoroughly wipe off the solution with a napkin and then rinse with water and soapy water. It is advisable to carry out it in the evening so that the skin returns to normal overnight.

Are there any contraindications?

As a rule, even such a gentle type of peeling as Hollywood peeling has a number of contraindications:

• The presence of open damage to the skin, mechanical, chemical or thermal in nature;
• The presence of various inflammatory processes of the skin;
• Allergy to the drug;
• Increased skin irritability as a result of increased dryness or oiliness;
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Also, if the recommendations of specialists are not followed or due to other circumstances, there is a possibility of possible side effects. List of side effects:

• Increased pigmentation (only in case of very fair skin);
• Decreased pigmentation (only in case of dark skin);
• Possible redness of the skin;
• Dilatation of blood vessels in the skin;
• Formation of scar tissue.

Thus, although the Hollywood peeling procedure is one of the most optimal today, one should still take into account its chemical effect on the surface layer of the skin, which, albeit in rare cases, can still lead to side effects. But you should remember that in order to avoid side effects, you should very carefully choose a cosmetology center and a specialist who will perform this procedure for you.

Two techniques

If the recommendations are not followed, pigmentation, dryness, uneven complexion, burns, and allergies may occur. Carrying out home chemical peeling with calcium chloride is possible using two methods. The first is long, the second is fast. However, the latter is intended for more experienced users who are already familiar with the process. Therefore, for the first time you should act according to a long-term scheme.

Start with cleansing the skin. It is washed with foam or gel and wiped dry. This is followed by application of the solution. To do this, carefully open the ampoule, moisten a cotton pad generously with the solution and apply it to the skin in several layers, about three or four. Take a short break between each to allow it to completely dry on your face.

Then moisten the baby soap with water and thoroughly lather your hands with it; you can also apply it to your fingers, previously wrapped in sterile gauze pads, or apply it to cotton pads. After this - facial massage with soap foam. It is important to move along the massage lines. As a result, white pellets are formed, along with which the upper stratum corneum rolls off the face. Hands are washed several times so that there is a sufficient amount of soap foam.

The solution is not applied around the eyes, except for the crow's feet area, and around the lips! There is no need to press: it is important to move smoothly and softly. It is better not to linger in certain areas for a long time, but to act evenly. When no pellets are formed during soaping, the remaining soap and solution are washed off with warm water. Finally, a nourishing or moisturizing mask is applied to the skin, followed by a nourishing or moisturizing light cream.

Homemade peeling with calcium chloride.

The second technique, after cleansing, involves applying one layer of thick soap suds to the skin. Next, the fingers are moistened with a solution of calcium chloride and gently massaged until white pellets appear. When the skin “creaks” under your fingers, it’s time to wash off the remaining foam with the solution. Next is applying the cream and nourishing the skin.

The course is carried out in one procedure once a week or ten days for three weeks. For sensitive skin, the limit is home chemical peeling once a month. In this case, half an ampoule is enough so as not to cause irritation.

Reviews

• Liliya, 34 years old : “I regularly use Hollywood Peeling, as acne appears on my skin from time to time. I can't fight them with cosmetics. I do peeling once a week for a month. The resulting effect lasts a long time, and when acne appears again, I again buy an ampoule of potassium chloride and carry out the manipulation.”
• Svetlana, 38 years old : “I am very pleased with the Hollywood peeling, as it perfectly cleanses the skin and makes it clean and smooth for a long time. But after such a procedure, I always make special masks, thanks to which it is possible to consolidate the resulting effect. My course of therapy lasts 2-3 weeks, it all depends on the extent of acne on my face.”
• Anastasia, 24 years old : “From time to time, the skin on my face becomes covered with a small rash, which I manage to eliminate with the help of Hollywood peeling. Preparing the mixture is very simple, in addition, the resulting cosmetics are a budget option. During the procedure, you can feel how dead skin cells are peeled off. After such manipulation, the face becomes clean, smooth and acquires a healthy color. I do experience slight redness, but after 2-3 hours it goes away.”

Hollywood peeling is a unique procedure for cleansing the skin of the face. You can perform this manipulation at home without spending extra money on a trip to the salon. The effect obtained at home will not upset you at all, but on the contrary, it will surprise you. This is especially nice, since the cost of facial cleansing from a cosmetologist is quite high. At home, you can afford other types of peeling. For example, you can purchase a portable ultrasonic facial cleanser or do a steam facial at home.

Skin care after home peeling

After peeling, special care is needed. The skin is dehydrated and needs additional hydration. Natural oils with vitamins E and Q are suitable for it: jojoba, avocado, macadamia, grape seed oil.

It is quite possible to make a mask from chamomile infusion, about 25 milligrams, and a teaspoon of finely ground oatmeal. A third of banana pulp is added to them and applied to the face for a quarter of an hour. Rinse off the mask with warm water and lubricate the skin with moisturizer. Chamomile can be replaced with calendula, sage, mint.

It is important to ensure that after opening the ampoule no pieces of glass get on the cotton pad: wounds cannot be avoided. If your skin is very dry, highly sensitive and prone to redness and rashes, home chemical peeling is not suitable for it. Caution is also required when cleansing combination and oily skin. Before using the “home version” of Hollywood peeling, it is advisable to consult a cosmetologist.

Indications

The salon procedure is indicated for aging, oily, dry skin.

Since the phytic acid used does not affect the deep layers of the skin, cleansing can be carried out even with increased skin sensitivity and the presence of spider veins.

Home cleansing with calcium chloride is more suitable for oily or combination skin. It is not recommended for very dry or inflamed skin.

Hollywood cleaning helps solve a number of aesthetic problems, which include:

• aging skin;
• dehydration;
• increased pigmentation;
• dull complexion;
• small wrinkles;
• acne and post-acne;
• enlarged pores;
• secondary infection;
• dysfunction of the sebaceous glands;
• shallow scars and cicatrices;
• striae;
• demodicosis in remission;
• keratomas are neoplasms that occur due to excessive tanning.

!Cleaning can also be carried out as preparation for more serious procedures - for example, microdermabrasion or laser resurfacing.

Cleaning can be done both at home and in the salon

Homemade chemical peeling for sensitive skin

For sensitive skin there is a more gentle option. A cotton pad is moistened in a solution of calcium chloride and applied to the face, quickly wash hands, whip up foam, and begin to roll over the face. If there are no pellets, then a lot of dead layers have accumulated, and they did not have time to become saturated.

After washing with cool water, you can apply a new layer of solution to the skin. Next - another massage. It is important not to forget about the area under the chin! Do this several times until pellets stop forming under your hands. Then - according to the method. It is better to prepare the mask in advance so that it can be applied immediately after washing off the solution.

The effectiveness of yellow peeling

With the help of Hollywood peeling, deeper cleansing of the skin is possible. And yellow peeling is just such a variety. It is recommended to be used to eliminate scars and hyperpigmentation. Even in old age, this procedure is effective.

But there are also disadvantages. The first is that a longer recovery period is required, about two weeks. The skin is exposed at a mid-level, and maintaining a normal lifestyle during the rehabilitation period is difficult. Secondly, you should also not be in the sun: pigmentation is possible. Therefore, it is better to carry out yellow peeling in winter or late autumn.

When deciding to undergo a Hollywood peeling, you should decide on the location: home or salon? If the choice turned out to be in favor of professionals, then you should first find out whether a medium or superficial level of cleaning is necessary and what possible side effects are possible during the procedure.

How is peeling with retinol carried out in the salon? ↑

The process proceeds differently in each salon, but it still takes no more than 20 minutes. In one place they may suggest applying a special mask to a completely cleansed face, in another they will limit themselves to wiping the skin with lotions.

It all depends on the components used. In any case, the doctor has one goal - to prepare the skin for applying the peeling itself. If more active drugs are used, you don’t have to leave them on your face, but simply wipe them off; if less active, you will need to hold them on for a while.

After all areas of the skin are completely prepared, the cosmetologist will apply the composition of the yellow peeling to them. Now, oddly enough, you can pack up and go home, because the effect of the composition will take at least 6 hours.

After the specified time, the retinoic peeling should be washed off with water. Now the most important thing begins - recovery!
