What are the Benefits of Back Peels?

Back Peel Treatment

If you’re looking for a result driven skincare service to treat coarse, hyperpigmented, or acne prone skin, Back Peels may be the ideal treatment selection for your skin care goals. While facial peels are quite popular, their benefits extend beyond just the face. Back Peels are an effective solution to address various skin concerns on the often-neglected back area.

So, what are the benefits of Back Peels and why they are they so effective?

1 | Provide Deep Exfoliation

Back Peel treatments involve the professional application of specially formulated solutions containing high concentrations of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acids (BHAs). These potent acids work by gently lifting the top layer of dead skin cells, unclogging pores, and promoting a rejuvenated complexion. Back Peels provide significant improvement in skin texture, reducing the appearance of roughness, clogged pores, blackheads, scarring, and hyperpigmentation.

2 | Control & Treat Acne

Back acne can be frustrating and difficult to treat. Back Peels have proven to be a valuable tool in combating acne and blemishes in this hard-to-reach area. The peels work by clearing and controlling excess oil production, reducing inflammation in acne blemishes, and eliminating acne causing bacteria. This combination not only clears current breakouts but helps reduce future flareups.

3 | Lighten Hyperpigmentation

If you have dark spots, sunspots, or hyperpigmentation on your back, Back Peels can be an effective solution. By accelerating the shedding of pigmented cells and promoting the growth of new, even-toned skin, these peels can visibly reduce hyperpigmentation, revealing a clearer and more even complexion.

4 | Minimize Scarring

Whether you have acne scars or other minor scars on your back, Back Peels can help fade their appearance. The exfoliating action of the peels stimulates collagen production, which aids in skin regeneration and leads to a gradual improvement in the texture and visibility of scars.

5 | Soften Rough Skin

Back Peels not only exfoliate the skin but also help improve its ability to retain moisture. By removing the dead, dry surface cells, the skin’s ability to absorb and retain hydration from moisturizers and serums is enhanced. The result is noticeably softer, smoother, and suppler skin on your back.

6 | Smooth Fine Lines

Even if you’re not experiencing significant signs of aging on your back, prevention is key. Regular Back Peels can be an excellent preventive measure against premature aging. The stimulation of collagen and elastin production helps maintain skin elasticity, reduce fine lines, delay the appearance of wrinkles, and reveal a fresh glow to the skin.

Back Peel treatments offer a myriad of benefits beyond what standard homecare routines can achieve. Whether you struggle with acne, hyperpigmentation, or simply want to maintain healthy and radiant skin on your back, Back Peels are a game-changer.

Acids sound a bit too scary?

Start with a back treatment (formerly known as a Back Facial). The main focus of the Back Treatment is to extract the pores on your back. We recommend adding a BHA boost; Boosts are mild versions of the acids used in Back Peels, and are a great way to introduce your skin to AHAs and BHAs.

Back Acne Treatment Options

Let’s talk back acne…

Located in Edmonton, Alberta, Dérmica offers a couple of back acne treatment options. Back acne, also known as “Bacne”, can be caused by several factors but seems to be more prevalent in physically active people.

Treating Back Acne at HOME

Besides maintaining proper skin care through professional care, there are other factors we recommend:

Stay on top of your diet
Remember that anything ingested by the body has effects on major organs. Your skin is not only the largest organ, it is the most visible of all. Therefore, it is the window into your internal health.

Consistently wash your bed sheets
Especially if you eat in bed, it is important to wash your sheets approximately once a week. In addition, it is not uncommon to sweat during your sleep. Sweat on your sheets may attract bacteria.

Shower after physical activity
When you sweat during a workout, your pores become enlarged thereby opening up to bacteria. Close your pores by taking a quick refreshing shower. Avoid using a mitt or a loofa as this will aggravate acne and continue the scarring process. Opt for a liquid cleanser that contains salicylic acid if they are still breaking out, or glycolic acid if you are strictly in the scarring period.

Professional Back Acne Treatment Options

1. Back Treatment. Ideal for all skin types

Our Back Treatment, also known as a “back facial”, is up to 75-minutes in treatment time. It is our treatment of choice for active acne breakouts.

It begins with a deep pore cleanse followed by exfoliation. The exfoliation process removes build up and dead skin on your back. After that, a relaxing steam session warms and softens the skin in preparation for manual extractions.

A custom mask application delivers nutrients through a relaxing massage on your back. Moisture care is applied. The Back Treatment is meant to maintain skin balance, clear infected blemishes, and of course, to pamper ;)

Consider adding a peel BOOST to your back treatment. Peel boosts are classified as mild versions of the stronger chemical peels. They can be used to pre-treat the skin before transitioning into stronger skin peels. Downtime: 24 – 48 hours.


2. Back Acid Peel. Treatment for back acne scars.

Our BACK ACID PEEL treatment is a Professional AHA/BHA Chemical Peel. This treatment is designed to balance the skin’s pH, lift scarring, and help prevent future breakouts. These treatments are ideal for problematic acne prone skin.

WHAT IS A CHEMICAL PEEL?

A chemical peel is a medical esthetic procedure. It safely removes the outer layers of the skin through the application of organic acids derived from various natural sources. This process brings fresh new cells to the surface of the skin giving it a healthy, smooth and even appearance.
