At Cardone Associated Medical Practice in Bari, you can undergo chemical peeling.

This clinical-aesthetic technique, whose name is derived from the English "to peel," involves the application of one or more caustic agents to the skin for a sufficient period to interact with progressively deeper layers of the epidermis and subsequently the dermis, causing selective and predictable skin damage.

Purposes of chemical peeling

Chemical peeling is a modern clinical-aesthetic technique adopted by Cardone Associated Medical Practice in Bari that can simply accelerate natural desquamation processes. Still, it can also necrotise the epidermis and a proportion of the dermis, essentially through protein coagulation or lysis.

Depending on the substances used, the application procedure, and the skin layers reached, any chemical peeling can, to a greater or lesser extent, modulate the regenerative and reparative processes of the skin.

Effects of peeling on the epidermis

On the epidermis, peeling decreases keratinocyte cohesion:

removes the stratum corneum of the skin and the keratin plug of comedones;
increases cellular turnover with relative exfoliation;
inhibits the activity of sebaceous glands;
depending on the depth of penetration, the chemical substance used can coagulate the protein structure of cells (frosting).
