When it comes to the skincare world, there are many different skin treatments available to improve or maintain the structure of one’s skin. One of the most common facial treatments are peels.

Peels have many benefits for the skin and there are a number of reasons why individuals opt for facial peels over other facial treatments. One common facial peel is the A-zyme peel.

What Is an A-Zyme Peel?

A-zyme peels are a fast-acting, non-invasive and skin rejuvenating treatment that is often used to brighten the surface of the skin and improve an individual’s overall skin structure. As a result, A-zyme peels often leave an individual’s skin feel refined, hydrated and fresh.

At Face of Man, our A-zyme peel is a 1% retinol (Vitamin A) peel that has an added exfoliating ingredient called Brolimine (an enzyme derived from pineapples), to help brighten the skin.

How (A-Zyme) Peels Works

The main ingredient in our A-zyme peel is Vitamin A. It has many beneficial elements that can help reduce ageing, increase brightness and keep the skin looking and feeling healthy.

Vitamin A is beneficial for the skin as it has a small molecular structure. What this means for you is that Vitamin A is able to get to the lower layers of the skin to work from the inside out. It is an extremely effective cell-communicating ingredient which means it can connect to almost any skin cell and cause it to replicate a young healthy functioning cell. By promoting skin cells to regenerate at a faster level bringing through fresh young skin cells and getting rid of old damages ones, it can reduce the effects ageing has on the skin. This cell turnover means it is now producing greater amounts of hylauranic acid, giving the skin a fresh, natural glow.

Vitamin A has many powerful qualities that include:

• Normalising and regulating oil production (especially good for acne or breakout prone skin).
• Anti-ageing effects.
• Promoting the deposition of new collagen and prevent its degeneration (reducing fine lines and wrinkles).
• Reducing pigmentation and sun damage.
• Minimising pore size.

Are A-Zyme Peels Suitable For Me?

It is important to remember that every individual has a different skin type. Therefore, not every treatment will be beneficial for your skin. Always consult with an experienced skin therapist before applying unknown products to your face.

Luckily, A-zyme peels are suitable for all skin types, including dry, oily or combination skin. If you experience acne, sun damage, uneven skin tone, dull skin, fine lines or wrinkles, an a-zyme peel may be beneficial for your skin.

With that said, an A-zyme peel may not be suitable for those who are currently sunburnt, have open wounds or are suffering from severe skin conditions.

To find out if your skin type is suitable for an A-Zyme peel, consult with a skin therapist to see if you are a good fit..

A-Zyme Peels vs Other Facial Peels?

A-zyme peels have many great qualities that can be more beneficial for the skin than other facial peels. Known as a technologically advanced peel that provides real visible results without discomfort, minimal to no redness, a-zyme peels are a great “lunch time” peel that allows individuals to go about their day without any signs of having a peel.

Why most people often opt for A-zyme peels are because they are gentler on the skin compared to other peels, whilst still being just as effective. As a non-invasive treatment, it is less likely for individuals with sensitive skin to react negatively.

A-Zyme Peel: What To Expect Afterwards

It is normal to experience light flaking or shedding of your skin three days after your peel. However, this can be managed using Ultraceutrical post-peel products. These help reduce any down time and ensure the best results.
