Ferul peeling: what is it and how to use it?

Every woman is looking for the perfect method to rejuvenate and cleanse her skin. Ferul peeling has proven itself all over the world. The procedure has a small list of contraindications and this makes it affordable for many. Acid peeling can be done at any time of the year. Even women with sensitive skin can use such an effective method.

Chemical peeling with preparations based on natural substances is quite justifiably very popular. From a chemical point of view, these are alpha-hydroxy acids, which are found in many plants and products, in the fruits of trees and bushes. Fruit acids are found in the foods we are used to. One of these substances is called ferulic acid.

The presence of such a component in common food products endows them with antioxidant properties and helps to get rid of various microorganisms. The acid completely destroys reactive and free oxygen species. The latter, in turn, lead to aging, damage to the DNA of cells, and contribute to the formation of malignant tumors.

As part of the peeling mixture, the main component is combined with vitamins E and C, due to which oxidative stress is reduced and thymine dimers are not formed. The latter lead to mutations as a result of significant damage to cellular DNA. Dimers often lead to the formation of melanomas.

The tool consists of active substances that are collected in liposomal nanocapsules with a diameter of 50 to 200 nm. Such capsules have a two-layer structure, like the cell membrane. Such a structure helps nanosomes penetrate deep into the epidermal layer, and there they release the very active substances.

The unique product delivers active ingredients to the affected area more efficiently than other drugs. Miniature capsules increase the degree of long-term effect, and reduce the area of ​​toxicity of the active ingredients, thereby reducing the chance of side effects.

Peeling contains many acids, vitamins and useful microelements. This combination provides a versatile effect on the skin.

Ferul peeling gives the following results:

The procedure is effective at any age. It helps to get rid of hormonal breakouts at a young age and to rejuvenate the skin after 35 years.

The peeling procedure with ferulic acid by a knowledgeable specialist takes little time.

The session consists of four stages.

• At the very beginning, it is necessary to prepare the skin for the future effects of the complex of substances. For this, a special cream is used; it contains fruit acids.The beautician applies it to the skin 1-1.5 weeks before the peeling.
• Visible impurities are removed from the face and a peeling product is applied.
• After a certain time, the peeling composition is washed off with water.
• The specialist performs manual massage with a calming effect. The skin is treated with a cream.

Peeling involves a course of 3-10 sessions. Between the impacts, at least 7 days should elapse for the skin to recover. Not everyone can go to a beautician for a ferul peeling, and many try to repeat the procedure at home. Experts admit this option, but argue that non-observance of the peeling rules can lead to serious consequences.

There are several important points to keep in mind when peeling at home.

• Despite the gentle effect, the acids in the peel can cause chemical burns.
• It is necessary to use species with an error of no more than 0.01 g. Otherwise, there is a risk of getting a useless or dangerous composition.
• It will not be possible to avoid costs; you will need expensive components. You cannot buy them in small quantities, the costs will be comparable to the cost of a salon procedure.
• During the procedure, it is necessary to protect the eyes and hands from the effects of acids. You will need a dedicated pH tester. Stock up on separate glass containers and chopsticks that can't be used later in the kitchen.
