The ADOPEEL-SYSTEM
Fruit acid-peelings belong to chemical peelings. In the medical profes- sional field, peelings are used as a dermatologically invasive method. The aim is to reach an exfoliation of the epidermis and the dermis in order to regenerate the skin.
In cosmetic institutes, an exfoliation with higher concentrated fruit acids (more than 25%) is not allowed. Therefore, fruit acids (less than 25%) are used to remove the upper horny skin layers in order to achieve an improved penetration of active ingredients into the skin.
Advantages / differences to natural fruit acids
Glycolic Acid is structured as a smaller molecule in comparison to other fruity acids. It penetrates the skin faster and deeper, which means it is more aggressive and faster in effect. Because of the way of penetration, the glycolic acid dissolves horny layers of the skin in volume, therefore acting as literally threedimensional.
This has advantages on all stronger horny skin. However, with sensitive skin having little horny skin, Glycolic Acid can not remain as long on the skin as natural fruit acids.

- Especially at the beginning of the treatment, shorter application times should be taken into consideration.

Purifying Peeling Removes hard skin and is effective on acne skin through the combi- nation of Glycolic-, Lactic-, Salicylic Acid and upon cells in the upper and middle layers of the epidermis. The active ingredients (Oleanolic acid and Vitamin C) are absorbed particularly deeply through the acid combination. Oleanic acid reduces the 5-Alpha-Reductase and con- trols sebum production. Vitamin C inhibits the free radicals and impro- ves wound healing. Purifying skin peel is effective against impurities, removes bacteria and improves the skin condition. |
Ingredients 8% Glycolic Acid, 10% Lactic Acid, 2% Salicylic Acid, Oleanolic Acid and Vitamin C |
||
Ivory Skin Peeling Removes hard skin and is effective on hyper pigmented skin through the combination of Glycolic -, Lactic -, and Mandelic Acid and upon cells in the upper and middle layers of the epidermis. The active ingredients like Diacetyl Boldine inhibits the building of Tyrosinase up to 70%, Dermawhite develops an inhibiting effect against the residual Tyrosinase and Vitamin C helps in reducing existing pigmentation. Ivory Skin Peeling has to be repeated within 7-14 days. |
Ingredients 5% Glycolic Acid, 5% Lactic Acid, 10% Mandelic Acid, Diacetyl Boldine, Waltheria Indica, Vitamin C |

Focus on springtime
In springtime, the human skin shows strong horny skin layers. Because of the low moisturisation level in the air, staying in heated rooms etc. the skin dries strongly on the surface. This results in a thicker horny skin layer. After a peeling, it is important to use moisturising and protective preparations (e.g. hyaluronic acids etc. )
Focus on fall
The second main focus for a peeling is the begin of fall season. Due to exposure to sunlight during holidays, the skin surface is especially stressed. To protect itself from UV radiation, it gains in thickness. Likewise, after a peeling in fall season, strong moisturising preparations should be used for after care.
...what about the summer season?
Generally also a good time for a peeling because the skin is thicker due to reaction on UV radiation. But bear in mind, that the use of fruity acids makes the skin more sensitive to UV-radiation. Many people still tend to expose to direct sunlight without protection and as a result, there is a higher danger of movement of pigment parti- cles. Therefore, a peeling should not be made during this time of year.
