Chemical Peeling
Mechanisms of chemical exfoliation
General principles distinguishing enzymatic, AHA, BHA and PHA exfoliation routes.
Reference — pendingConcentration & pH in peel formulation
How concentration and pH interact rather than acting as independent variables.
Reference — pendingMandelic Acid
Molecular size & penetration rate
Mandelic acid's larger molecular structure relative to other common AHAs.
Reference — pendingGlycolic Acid
Small-molecule AHA characteristics
General exfoliation characteristics associated with glycolic acid's small molecular size.
Reference — pendingLactic Acid
Lactic acid & humectant behaviour
Lactic acid's dual profile as an AHA with humectant characteristics.
Reference — pendingGluconolactone / PHA
PHA molecular size & skin tolerance considerations
General PHA characteristics relative to smaller-molecule AHAs.
Reference — pendingSalicylic Acid
Lipophilic exfoliation & oil affinity
Beta-hydroxy acid solubility characteristics and their relevance to congested skin.
Reference — pendingBromelain
Proteolytic enzyme action
General mechanism of bromelain as a proteolytic enzyme distinct from acid-based exfoliation.
Reference — pendingUrea
Urea as a humectant
General humectant, water-binding characteristics associated with urea.
Reference — pendingBarrier & Hydration
Why exfoliation is paired with hydration support
The rationale for formulating conditioning agents alongside exfoliants rather than separately.
Reference — pendingPost-procedure Care
General post-procedure principles
Detailed post-procedure guidance is maintained in the physician-gated Protocol Guide.
