Today, no one will be surprised by such a cosmetic procedure as peeling. But is everyone familiar with peeling with calcium chloride? This is a very effective procedure performed using a well-known drug.
Calcium chloride peeling is superficial when a 5% calcium solution is used and medium, using a 10% solution of the drug.
Superficial peeling is able to get rid of fine wrinkles, remove age spots, improve complexion. Medium chemical peeling will help to overcome the signs of aging, reduce scars, and get a lifting effect.
Many fear that peeling of this type is a painful procedure, but, as all who have tested it, it does not cause discomfort. If you decide to make peeling with calcium chloride, then you need to start with a consultation with a dermatocosmetologist to assess the condition of your skin. He will explain whether you need such a peeling.
If necessary, appoint a preparation for this procedure. Preparation may consist of surface peeling or the use of acid creams for some time, which can be used at home. If you have cold sores, then take antiviral medications a few days before the peel.
Calcium chloride peeling is a very aggressive effect on the skin, so this procedure has contraindications, including pregnancy and feeding a child, skin lesions, herpes, hypertension, epilepsy, prolonged exposure to the sun.
Chemical peeling at home (as, indeed, any other cosmetic procedure) begins with cleansing the skin with the help of a normal baby soap, then calcium chloride is applied to the face with a cotton swab. It is necessary to dilute a 5% solution with a small amount of water. You will not feel a burning or tingling sensation. When one layer of the solution is completely dry, the next is applied. Thus, first you need to apply four layers. Avoid contact with the skin around the eyes.
Then wet your hands and soap your fingers with baby soap. Carefully remove the resulting film of calcium chloride, starting from the forehead along the massage lines. Five to seven minutes later, the first skin reaction appears - redness. Wash your face thoroughly with plenty of warm water. You do not need to wipe it with a towel, let the dehydrated skin soak in the moisture. Then apply a pre-prepared soothing-nourishing mask. For the implementation of surface peeling, this effect is enough.
When conducting a middle chemical pilling for redness, a thin white film appears, similar to frost. Later, the film will turn into a thin crust, which will remain on the face for five to seven days. It is strictly forbidden to remove it yourself - this can lead to scarring. Be patient and wait until the crust begins to recede itself. During this period, the skin is very dry. It must be lubricated with a fat cream, even petroleum jelly will do.
Women who have experienced peeling with calcium chloride respond differently to this procedure: some are satisfied with the result, others consider the effect to be insignificant and are not going to repeat the procedure.
Experts also leave reviews for peeling with calcium chloride. In their opinion, despite the fact that the procedure is somewhat aggressive, it allows you to achieve a result that, in some cases, cannot be obtained by other methods.
