What is an ENVIRON Cool Peel®? 

The principles of ENVIRON® peels are based on physiology of skin cells, these are to be protected and treated very well.

If the skin cell is aggressively peeled this disrupts the skins natural barrier and water will easily be lost and environmental toxins can enter the skin more easily. Hence ENVIRON® peels remove the excess horny layer of the skin and yet maintain the water-proofing barrier qualities of the skin. 

ENVIRON® Peels are ideal for hydrating and refining; they repair cells and encourage cell exfoliation revealing fresh and youthful skin. Especially effective to treat scarring, rough textured, sun damage, acne and rosacea. 

You must be on the home care range for a minimum of 3 weeks to prepare the skin before commencing treatment. However, in some cases of active acne, it is possible to have this treatment without using the products first.

We strongly recommend using ENVIRON® products afterwards for best results and a course of 6-8 treatments may be recommended.

How does ENVIRON Cool Peel® Work? 

ENVIRON® has a variety of peeling systems, using acidic creams and gels instead of using acid solutions. These peels preserve as much epidermis as possible while at the same time, getting the safest effective concentration of hydronium ions into the dermis.

Also, the peels are designed to preserve the architecture of the skin, simultaneously stimulating the fibroblasts in the dermis to increase the quantity of collagen in the dermis.
