How does it work?
Understanding the biological process allows more precise protocol planning
Although the application of TherapDerma Mandelic Peel 30% is carried out over a limited period, the skin response associated with the procedure may continue to develop during the following days.
Each session promotes superficial and progressive epidermal renewal, contributing to the reorganisation of the stratum corneum, the normalisation of keratinisation and the gradual improvement of the skin’s surface quality.
Understanding the different stages of this process allows the professional to better interpret the clinical evolution, adapt the protocol and establish realistic expectations for each patient.
Thanks to its high molecular weight, Mandelic Acid exhibits more gradual epidermal diffusion than other Alpha Hydroxy Acids, promoting progressive action and a high tolerance profile in appropriately selected patients.
________________________________________
EVERYTHING BEGINS AT THE SURFACE OF THE SKIN
The peel first comes into contact with the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of the epidermis.
Under certain conditions, this structure may present an accumulation of corneocytes, excess keratin and an irregular surface organisation that influences the skin’s texture, radiance and visual tone uniformity.
The application of Mandelic Peel 30% promotes superficial and progressive chemical exfoliation, contributing to reducing the cohesion between corneocytes and facilitating their gradual removal.
This process forms part of physiological renewal and should always respect the integrity of the barrier function and the skin’s individual recovery capacity.
________________________________________
STEP 1
Superficial and progressive chemical exfoliation
Mandelic Acid acts mainly on the most superficial layers of the stratum corneum, promoting a gradual reduction in the cohesion between corneocytes.
As a result, progressive superficial desquamation may occur, facilitating the removal of corneocytes without necessarily resorting to highly intensive procedures.
Its high molecular weight is associated with more gradual and uniform epidermal diffusion.
The intensity of the response will also depend on the formulation, exposure time, application technique and the functional condition of the skin.
________________________________________
STEP 2
Reorganisation of superficial keratinisation
Once exfoliation has begun, the epidermis continues its physiological renewal process.
The gradual removal of excess corneocytes may promote a more uniform organisation of the epidermal surface and contribute to the progressive improvement of skin texture.
This process may be particularly relevant within personalised protocols for acne-prone, oily, combination skin or skin with superficial texture irregularities.
The evolution should always be assessed individually.
________________________________________
STEP 3
Progressive balance of the skin surface
As epidermal renewal progresses, the skin surface may develop a more even and balanced appearance.
The reduction of excess corneocytes and the reorganisation of the stratum corneum may contribute to visibly improving oily or combination skin and supporting the physiological balance of sebum production.
These effects are not identical in every patient and will depend on the diagnosis, the biological response and the continuity of the protocol.
________________________________________
STEP 4
Progressive reorganisation of the skin surface
As the epidermis renews itself, the skin surface may develop a more homogeneous organisation.
Within an appropriately indicated protocol, the following may progressively be observed:
✔ a more even skin texture;
✔ a more homogeneous appearance of skin tone;
✔ greater visual radiance;
✔ an improvement in the appearance of visible pores;
✔ a smoother skin surface;
✔ a healthier-looking complexion.
These changes develop gradually and should be assessed while respecting recovery intervals and individual tolerance.
________________________________________
STEP 5
Progressive clinical evolution
The response obtained after each session forms part of a biological process that requires time, observation and reassessment.
When the protocol respects barrier function recovery and appropriate intervals between sessions, the clinical evolution may continue progressively and consistently with the established objectives.
Mandelic Peel 30% may be integrated into structured and personalised programmes, in which each new session is decided according to:
✔ the observed response;
✔ skin recovery;
✔ individual tolerance;
✔ the evolution of texture and tone;
✔ previously defined clinical objectives.
Continuation of the protocol should not be considered automatic.
Each new phase should be justified through professional reassessment.
________________________________________
WHY IS PROGRESSIVE RENEWAL SO IMPORTANT?
Epidermal renewal is not simply about removing superficial cells.
A progressive approach allows the physiological mechanisms of skin adaptation and recovery to be respected, reducing the need for unnecessarily intensive procedures.
The gradual behaviour of Mandelic Acid facilitates its incorporation into personalised protocols when the objective is to promote superficial renewal while maintaining a high tolerance profile.
The intensity, frequency and duration of the programme should always be adapted to the barrier function and the observed clinical response.
These principles are explored in greater depth in the Scientific Foundations section.
________________________________________
A DIFFERENT RESPONSE IN EVERY PATIENT
Clinical evolution is not identical between patients.
It may be influenced by factors such as:
✔ biological age;
✔ sebaceous production activity;
✔ thickness and compactness of the stratum corneum;
✔ phototype;
✔ individual sensitivity;
✔ integrity of the barrier function;
✔ presence of inflammatory lesions;
✔ home skincare routine;
✔ sun exposure;
✔ previous medical or aesthetic treatments;
✔ individual recovery capacity.
For this reason, all protocols should be individualised and reassessed throughout their progression.

THERAPDERMA CONCLUSION
Understanding how Mandelic Peel 30% works enables the professional to integrate the product into a clinical strategy that goes beyond an isolated application.
Each session promotes a superficial biological sequence that combines progressive exfoliation, reorganisation of the stratum corneum and physiological renewal of the epidermis.
When professionally indicated, this process may contribute to gradually improving skin texture, the visual uniformity of skin tone and the skin’s surface quality.
Integrated within a personalised protocol, Mandelic Peel 30% may also form part of sequential planning alongside mesotherapy, PDRN, biostimulation, LED therapy or other medical-aesthetic technologies.
The incorporation of complementary procedures should only be carried out after adequate skin recovery and while respecting the intervals established for each intervention.
Within the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™, this approach combines diagnosis, planning, clinical observation, reassessment and continuity of care, always respecting skin physiology and the individual biological response.
Mechanism of Action
The science behind superficial and progressive epidermal renewal
TherapDerma Mandelic Peel 30% exerts its action through a superficial chemical exfoliation process that acts primarily on the stratum corneum, promoting progressive epidermal renewal and the physiological reorganisation of the skin surface.
Its biological behaviour depends on the interaction between Mandelic Acid, the complete formulation, the application technique and the functional characteristics of the skin.
Thanks to its high molecular weight, Mandelic Acid exhibits more gradual epidermal diffusion than other Alpha Hydroxy Acids, which may promote progressive action and a high tolerance profile when used according to a professional protocol.
Understanding this mechanism enables the professional to adapt the procedure to the diagnosis, the barrier function and each patient’s individual biological response.
________________________________________
ACTION ON THE STRATUM CORNEUM
The stratum corneum is the outermost layer of the epidermis and plays an essential role in the skin’s barrier function.
It is composed of corneocytes arranged in multiple layers and joined together by specialised structures known as corneodesmosomes, which are responsible for maintaining the cohesion of the epidermal surface.
Various factors, such as ageing, environmental exposure, sebaceous activity or certain keratinisation disorders, may alter the organisation of this layer.
Mandelic Peel 30% initially acts on the stratum corneum by promoting superficial and progressive chemical exfoliation within appropriately indicated protocols.
The intensity of the response will depend on the formulation, exposure time, the technique used and the individual characteristics of the skin.
________________________________________
MODULATION OF CORNEODESMOSOMES
One of the main mechanisms associated with Mandelic Acid is the promotion of a gradual reduction in the cohesion between superficial corneocytes.
This action facilitates progressive desquamation and promotes the physiological renewal of the stratum corneum.
As a result, the skin surface may progressively reorganise into a more uniform structure as the protocol advances.
The clinical evolution will always depend on the individual biological response and the professional follow-up.
________________________________________
REORGANISATION OF KERATINISATION
Superficial exfoliation represents only one part of the biological process.
Following the gradual removal of corneocytes, the epidermis continues its physiological renewal, promoting the progressive reorganisation of the skin surface.
This process may contribute to improving the skin’s surface texture within personalised protocols designed for oily, combination, acne-prone skin or skin with superficial texture irregularities.
The evolution should be reassessed at every session.
________________________________________
BALANCE OF THE SKIN SURFACE
The progressive reorganisation of the stratum corneum may promote a more even appearance of the skin.
The reduction of excess superficial keratin and epidermal renewal may contribute to the physiological balance of sebum production within appropriately indicated protocols.
This behaviour explains the interest in Mandelic Acid for professional programmes designed for oily, combination or acne-prone skin.
However, the response may vary according to the patient’s individual characteristics.
________________________________________
REORGANISATION OF THE SKIN SURFACE
As epidermal renewal progresses, the skin surface may develop a more homogeneous organisation.
Within appropriately planned protocols, the following may progressively be observed:
✔ more even skin texture;
✔ greater visual tone uniformity;
✔ smoother skin surface;
✔ brighter appearance;
✔ improved appearance of visible pores;
✔ gradual improvement in the skin’s surface quality.
These changes develop progressively and should always be assessed while respecting recovery times and the individual clinical response.
________________________________________
INTEGRATION INTO SEQUENTIAL PROTOCOLS
A properly recovered epidermis may facilitate the planning of other medical-aesthetic procedures when professionally indicated.
For this reason, Mandelic Peel 30% may be incorporated as one phase within sequential protocols that subsequently include mesotherapy, PDRN, biostimulation, LED therapy, radiofrequency or other technologies.
The integration of procedures should only be carried out after adequate skin recovery and while respecting the intervals established for each intervention.

________________________________________
THERAPDERMA CONCLUSION
The clinical value of Mandelic Peel 30% lies in understanding that its action goes beyond the simple removal of superficial cells.
Its mechanism of action promotes progressive epidermal renewal through the physiological reorganisation of the stratum corneum and the gradual reduction in the cohesion between corneocytes.
When integrated into personalised protocols, it may form part of sequential planning that includes other medical-aesthetic solutions, provided that skin recovery and clinical assessment allow it.
Within the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™, this approach combines scientific knowledge, diagnosis, planning, clinical observation and continuity of care to develop protocols adapted to the specific characteristics and needs of each patient.
Scientific Foundations
The formulation determines the behaviour of the peel
In professional aesthetic medicine, the behaviour of a chemical peel does not depend solely on the declared acid concentration.
The skin response is determined by the interaction between different physicochemical and clinical parameters, including concentration, pH, pKa, the proportion of available non-ionised acid, the formulation vehicle, exposure time, application technique and the biological characteristics of the skin.
Understanding these principles enables the professional to better interpret the behaviour of the product, select appropriate protocols and adapt the procedure to the specific needs of each patient.
In TherapDerma Mandelic Peel 30%, these factors are integrated into a professional formulation designed to promote superficial, progressive and controlled epidermal renewal, with a high tolerance profile in appropriately selected patients.
________________________________________
CONCENTRATION
Much more than a percentage
Concentration indicates the amount of Mandelic Acid present in the formulation.
In Mandelic Peel 30%, this concentration is integrated into a formulation system developed to promote progressive epidermal renewal, contribute to improving the skin’s surface texture and support greater visual tone uniformity.
However, a higher concentration does not necessarily imply greater clinical efficacy or better suitability for every patient.
The actual behaviour of the peel depends on the interaction between:
✔ concentration;
✔ formulation pH;
✔ acid pKa;
✔ proportion of non-ionised acid;
✔ vehicle;
✔ application technique;
✔ exposure time;
✔ functional characteristics of the skin.
For this reason, concentration is only one of the factors that determine the skin response.
________________________________________
THE ROLE OF pH
pH expresses the degree of acidity of a formulation and is one of the relevant parameters in the design of a chemical peel.
Its value influences the balance between the ionised and non-ionised forms of the acid and, therefore, the fraction potentially available to interact with the stratum corneum.
Two formulations with the same concentration of Mandelic Acid may exhibit different behaviours when their pH, vehicle, buffering systems or application conditions vary.
For this reason, the evaluation of a professional peel should not be based solely on the percentage of acid indicated on the label.
________________________________________
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF pKa
The pKa is a physicochemical constant specific to each acid and describes the balance between its ionised and non-ionised forms according to the pH of the medium.
In the case of Mandelic Acid, its pKa is approximately 3.4.
When the pH of the formulation is close to this value, a significant proportion of both chemical forms is present. As the pH changes, their relative distribution also changes.
This relationship helps explain why two peels with the same nominal concentration may exhibit different activity profiles.
The final clinical behaviour will also depend on the complete formulation and the conditions of use.
________________________________________
NON-IONISED ACID FRACTION
A relevant factor in the interaction with the epidermis
The Mandelic Acid present in a formulation may exist in both ionised and non-ionised forms.
The non-ionised form has a greater ability to diffuse through the superficial lipid structures of the epidermis, making its proportion one of the factors influencing the behaviour of the peel.
This proportion mainly depends on the relationship between:
✔ pH;
✔ pKa;
✔ total concentration;
✔ formulation system.
However, the behaviour on the skin cannot be deduced solely through a theoretical calculation of free acid.
The vehicle, excipients, technique, exposure time and the patient’s individual characteristics also play a role.
________________________________________
MOLECULAR WEIGHT
Mandelic Acid has a higher molecular weight than other commonly used Alpha Hydroxy Acids, such as Glycolic Acid.
This characteristic is associated with more gradual epidermal diffusion, which may contribute to progressive behaviour and a high tolerance profile when the product is used correctly.
This property supports its incorporation into professional protocols designed for oily, combination, appropriately selected sensitive or acne-prone skin, as well as certain higher phototypes.
The clinical response will always depend on the complete formulation, the professional technique and the functional condition of the skin.
________________________________________
PEEL DEPTH AND RESPONSE
The response obtained during a chemical peel does not depend exclusively on the formulation.
It may also be influenced by:
✔ prior skin preparation;
✔ cleansing and degreasing;
✔ amount of product applied;
✔ number of layers;
✔ exposure time;
✔ extent of the treatment area;
✔ application technique;
✔ thickness and compactness of the stratum corneum;
✔ sebaceous activity;
✔ integrity of the barrier function;
✔ skin sensitivity;
✔ individual biological response;
✔ neutralisation;
✔ post-treatment care.
For this reason, the same product may produce different responses between patients and even between different anatomical areas of the same patient.
Continuous clinical observation is essential throughout the entire procedure.
________________________________________
WHY IS MOLECULAR WEIGHT RELEVANT?
The high molecular weight of Mandelic Acid is one of the factors that differentiates its behaviour from that of other Alpha Hydroxy Acids.
Its more gradual diffusion supports the planning of superficial and progressive protocols, particularly when the objective is to preserve tolerance and carefully adapt the intensity of the procedure.
This characteristic does not eliminate the risk of skin reactions or replace professional assessment.
Exposure time, the number of layers, the technique and the condition of the barrier function remain determining factors.

Neutralisation of Mandelic Peel 30% is mandatory.
It must be carried out using the recommended neutraliser and in accordance with the TherapDerma professional protocol, respecting the exposure time, clinical observation and the technical instructions for the product.
Neutralisation stops the residual acid activity on the skin surface.
The professional should verify the uniform application of the neutraliser and then complete the removal of the product according to the established protocol.
________________________________________
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THESE CONCEPTS?
The combined interpretation of concentration, pH, pKa, the proportion of non-ionised acid, molecular weight, formulation and the physiological condition of the skin enables the professional to:
✔ select the peel on a more informed basis;
✔ adapt the procedure to the patient;
✔ adjust the exposure time and technique;
✔ preserve the barrier function;
✔ improve tolerance;
✔ recognise expected and unexpected skin responses;
✔ plan neutralisation appropriately;
✔ reassess the protocol between sessions;
✔ promote a clinical evolution consistent with the established objectives.
Science does not replace clinical assessment, but it provides a stronger foundation for every professional decision.
________________________________________
THERAPDERMA CONCLUSION
The behaviour of Mandelic Peel 30% depends on the interaction between its physicochemical characteristics, the complete formulation, the application technique and the individual biological response.
Concentration, pH, pKa, the proportion of non-ionised acid and molecular weight help to explain its activity profile, but they should not be interpreted in isolation.
At TherapDerma, scientific knowledge is integrated with diagnosis, clinical observation, mandatory neutralisation, preservation of the barrier function and reassessment between sessions.
This approach allows Mandelic Peel 30% to be incorporated into personalised, progressive professional protocols that are consistent with skin physiology and the principles of the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™.
Indications
When should Mandelic Peel 30% be selected?
The selection of a professional chemical peel should always be made following an individual clinical assessment.
The professional should consider:
✔ the type and functional characteristics of the skin;
✔ the integrity of the barrier function;
✔ skin sensitivity;
✔ the presence of superficial irregularities;
✔ previous treatments;
✔ clinical objectives;
✔ recovery capacity;
✔ the expected biological response.
TherapDerma Mandelic Peel 30% may be considered when the objective is to promote superficial and progressive epidermal renewal, contribute to improving skin texture, support greater visual tone uniformity and promote the physiological balance of sebum production.
Its gradual epidermal diffusion allows it to be incorporated into protocols with a high tolerance profile in appropriately selected patients.
It may be particularly relevant in programmes designed for oily, combination, appropriately assessed sensitive or acne-prone skin, or skin with superficial tone irregularities.
The choice of this concentration should form part of an individualised strategy and should not be based solely on the percentage of Mandelic Acid.
________________________________________
OILY OR SEBORRHOEIC SKIN
High sebaceous activity may be associated with excess shine, more visible pores and a greater tendency to develop superficial irregularities.
Mandelic Peel 30% may be incorporated into professional protocols designed to promote progressive epidermal renewal and support the physiological balance of sebum production.
Its indication should be adapted to the condition of the barrier function, skin sensitivity and the presence of inflammatory lesions.
________________________________________
ACNE-PRONE SKIN
Acne-prone skin requires careful assessment of inflammatory activity, skin integrity and individual tolerance.
The superficial and progressive exfoliation promoted by Mandelic Acid allows Mandelic Peel 30% to be considered within professional protocols aimed at gradually improving the overall appearance of this skin type.
It should not be applied to open lesions, active infections or severe inflammatory conditions.
The indication and frequency of sessions should be established on an individual basis.
________________________________________
SUPERFICIAL TONE IRREGULARITIES
Following certain inflammatory processes, superficial irregularities in skin tone may persist.
The progressive renewal of the stratum corneum may contribute to visibly improving the uniformity of the skin surface.
For this reason, Mandelic Peel 30% may be integrated into protocols designed for certain superficial tone irregularities, always following appropriate clinical assessment.
The professional should consider the phototype, the risk of pigmentary response, photo-exposure and the patient’s ability to comply with post-treatment care.
________________________________________
VISIBLE PORES AND UNEVEN SKIN TEXTURE
Irregularities in the skin’s microrelief may influence the visual perception of pores and the uniformity of the skin surface.
Progressive chemical exfoliation may promote superficial reorganisation of the stratum corneum and contribute to the gradual improvement of skin texture.
Mandelic Peel 30% may be incorporated into personalised protocols when clinical assessment identifies this objective.
________________________________________
EARLY PHOTOAGEING
Cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation may be associated with loss of radiance, superficial tone irregularities and changes in skin texture.
In appropriately selected patients, Mandelic Peel 30% may form part of programmes designed to promote superficial epidermal renewal and gradually improve the appearance of the skin.
Photoprotection and appropriate home care are essential elements before, during and after the protocol.
________________________________________
APPROPRIATELY SELECTED SENSITIVE SKIN
The high molecular weight of Mandelic Acid is associated with more gradual epidermal diffusion than other Alpha Hydroxy Acids.
This characteristic may promote a high tolerance profile when the patient has been properly assessed and the procedure is adapted to the functional condition of the skin.
However, the term “sensitive skin” does not in itself constitute an automatic indication.
The professional should assess:
✔ the integrity of the barrier function;
✔ the degree of skin reactivity;
✔ the presence of erythema or inflammation;
✔ a history of intolerance;
✔ the skincare routine;
✔ recent procedures.
________________________________________
INTEGRATION INTO COMBINED PROTOCOLS
Mandelic Peel 30% may form part of sequential planning alongside other medical-aesthetic procedures when professionally indicated.
These may include:
✔ mesotherapy;
✔ PDRN;
✔ biostimulation;
✔ LED therapy;
✔ radiofrequency;
✔ other professional technologies or solutions.
The incorporation of complementary procedures should not be carried out automatically or necessarily during the same session.
Skin recovery, barrier function, the recommended intervals and the specific characteristics of each intervention must always be respected.
________________________________________
MAINTENANCE OF THE SKIN’S SURFACE QUALITY
In patients who have already completed a clinical programme, Mandelic Peel 30% may be considered within periodic maintenance strategies.
These sessions may be intended to promote:
✔ visual tone uniformity;
✔ skin surface texture;
✔ radiance;
✔ the balance of the skin surface.
The frequency should be established individually and reviewed according to the clinical evolution, tolerance and the patient’s needs.
________________________________________
PATIENTS BEGINNING MANDELIC ACID PROGRAMMES
Mandelic Peel 30% may be considered for patients beginning a professional Mandelic Acid programme, provided that the clinical assessment confirms its suitability.
Its progressive behaviour allows observation of the skin response, assessment of barrier function recovery and adaptation of subsequent sessions.
Starting with this concentration does not imply mandatory progression to formulations of greater intensity.
The continuation or modification of the protocol will always depend on the clinical evolution and the individualised objectives.
________________________________________
SUMMARY OF THE MAIN INDICATIONS
Mandelic Peel 30% may be incorporated, when professionally indicated, into protocols designed for:
✔ oily or seborrhoeic skin;
✔ combination skin;
✔ acne-prone skin without active inflammatory processes that would make treatment unsuitable;
✔ superficial tone irregularities;
✔ the appearance of visible pores;
✔ uneven skin texture;
✔ early photoageing;
✔ appropriately selected sensitive skin;
✔ sequential planning alongside other procedures;
✔ maintenance of the skin’s surface quality;
✔ the start of professional Mandelic Acid programmes.
This list provides general guidance and does not replace an individual clinical assessment.
________________________________________
THERAPDERMA CLINICAL CONCLUSION
Mandelic Peel 30% is a versatile tool for professionals wishing to incorporate superficial and progressive epidermal renewal into personalised protocols.
Its gradual behaviour allows it to be considered for appropriately selected patients with oily, combination, sensitive or acne-prone skin, or skin with superficial texture and tone irregularities.
The correct indication will always depend on the diagnosis, the integrity of the barrier function, sensitivity, phototype, biological response and the patient’s recovery capacity.
Within the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™, its use is integrated with planning, clinical observation, reassessment between sessions and continuity of care.
This approach makes it possible to develop protocols consistent with the individual needs of each patient, while respecting skin physiology and avoiding the interpretation of concentration as an automatic indicator of therapeutic superiority.
Contraindications
Safety begins with proper clinical assessment
Every professional chemical peel should only be performed following an individual clinical assessment of the patient.
Identifying potential contraindications is an essential part of the diagnostic process and enables the selection of the most appropriate treatment, minimises the risk of complications and ensures responsible clinical practice.
Although TherapDerma Mandelic Peel 30% has an excellent tolerance profile and has been developed to provide progressive epidermal renewal while respecting skin physiology, it should always be used under professional judgement and within properly planned protocols.
Patient safety depends both on the correct selection of the treatment and on recognising situations in which the procedure is not indicated.
________________________________________
PREGNANCY AND BREASTFEEDING
As a precautionary measure, chemical peels are not recommended during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding.
Although the systemic absorption of topically applied Mandelic Acid is very limited, standard clinical practice recommends postponing this type of procedure until these periods have ended.
Patient safety should always take precedence over any aesthetic objective.
________________________________________
ACTIVE SKIN INFECTIONS
The treatment should not be performed on skin presenting active infectious processes.
These include:
✔ active herpes simplex;
✔ bacterial infections;
✔ fungal infections;
✔ viral infections;
✔ acute inflammatory processes.
The peel should only be considered once the infection has completely resolved and the skin has regained its physiological integrity.
________________________________________
WOUNDS OR IMPAIRED SKIN INTEGRITY
Mandelic Peel 30% should not be applied to areas presenting:
✔ open wounds;
✔ abrasions;
✔ recent burns;
✔ skin erosions;
✔ recent surgical procedures without complete healing;
✔ traumatic injuries.
The epidermis must be fully intact before beginning any chemical exfoliation protocol.
________________________________________
ACTIVE DERMATOSES
The presence of inflammatory skin diseases requires particularly careful assessment.
These include:
✔ eczema;
✔ active dermatitis;
✔ psoriasis in the active phase;
✔ rosacea during the inflammatory phase;
✔ other dermatoses affecting the treatment area.
In these situations, the procedure should be postponed until the skin has achieved clinical stability.
________________________________________
HYPERSENSITIVITY TO THE PRODUCT
The treatment is contraindicated in patients with a known history of hypersensitivity to Mandelic Acid or any component of the formulation.
Where increased sensitivity is suspected, the professional should consider more appropriate therapeutic alternatives or carry out any clinical tests deemed necessary before initiating treatment.
________________________________________
RECENT DERMATOLOGICAL TREATMENTS
Before performing the peel, it is essential to review any medical and aesthetic treatments received during the preceding weeks.
Particular attention should be given to patients who have recently undergone or used:
✔ oral retinoids;
✔ ablative procedures;
✔ aggressive fractional laser treatments;
✔ other high-intensity chemical peels;
✔ treatments that may impair the skin’s barrier function.
The decision should be individualised according to the clinical evolution and the time elapsed since the previous procedure.
________________________________________
INTENSE SUN EXPOSURE
It is not recommended to begin a Mandelic Peel 30% protocol when the patient has had recent intense sun exposure or when adequate photoprotection cannot be guaranteed during the recovery period.
Ultraviolet radiation may alter the physiological response of the skin and increase the risk of complications.
Daily photoprotection is an essential part of therapeutic success.
________________________________________
OTHER SITUATIONS REQUIRING ASSESSMENT
The professional should carefully assess treatment in patients presenting:
✔ a history of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation;
✔ extremely reactive skin;
✔ impaired wound healing;
✔ systemic diseases that may interfere with skin recovery;
✔ pharmacological treatments that alter the skin’s biological response;
✔ immunosuppression or medical conditions requiring particular caution.
Each case should be evaluated entirely on an individual basis.
________________________________________

________________________________________
THERAPDERMA CONCLUSION
The effectiveness of a chemical peel always begins with the correct indication and appropriate patient selection.
Although Mandelic Peel 30% has been designed to provide a high tolerance profile in appropriately selected patients, together with progressive and controlled epidermal renewal, its use requires rigorous clinical assessment, identification of potential contraindications and individual adaptation of the protocol.
At TherapDerma, we believe that safety is the first step towards clinical excellence. Respect for skin physiology, accurate diagnosis and personalised treatment make it possible to develop safer, scientifically grounded procedures aimed at achieving natural, consistent and sustainable results within the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™.
Professional Application
A procedure based on diagnosis, precision and respect for skin physiology
The clinical behaviour of a professional chemical peel does not depend solely on the formulation used.
Patient assessment, skin preparation, application technique, control of the exposure time, clinical observation and post-treatment follow-up all directly influence the skin response.
TherapDerma Mandelic Peel 30% has been developed exclusively for professional use and should be incorporated into individualised protocols that respect:
✔ the integrity of the barrier function;
✔ skin sensitivity;
✔ recovery capacity;
✔ the characteristics of the treatment area;
✔ the individual biological response.
The high tolerance profile associated with Mandelic Acid does not replace the need for rigorous clinical assessment, nor does it eliminate the possibility of undesirable reactions.
The intensity and duration of the procedure should always be adapted to the patient and to the official technical instructions for the product.
________________________________________
PRE-TREATMENT CLINICAL ASSESSMENT
Before beginning the procedure, the professional should perform a clinical assessment to confirm the suitability of the treatment.
The assessment should include, where appropriate:
✔ skin type and functional condition;
✔ phototype;
✔ sebaceous activity;
✔ integrity of the barrier function;
✔ sensitivity and degree of reactivity;
✔ presence of inflammatory lesions or impaired skin integrity;
✔ dermatological history;
✔ recent medical or aesthetic procedures;
✔ medication and home-use products;
✔ recent or anticipated sun exposure;
✔ ability to comply with post-treatment care;
✔ the patient’s objectives and expectations.
This assessment will determine the indication, the treatment area and the conditions of the procedure.
________________________________________
SKIN PREPARATION
Proper preparation of the treatment area promotes uniform application and facilitates observation of the skin response.
Before beginning, the professional should:
✔ thoroughly cleanse the treatment area;
✔ remove make-up, sunscreen and cosmetic residues;
✔ eliminate excess sebum;
✔ degrease the skin where indicated by the protocol;
✔ protect particularly sensitive areas;
✔ verify the absence of open lesions or conditions incompatible with the procedure.
The skin surface should be clean and dry before application.
________________________________________
DURING APPLICATION
Application should be performed using a uniform, systematic technique in accordance with the TherapDerma professional protocol.
Throughout the procedure, the following should be monitored:
✔ the amount of product applied;
✔ the uniformity of distribution;
✔ the number of layers, where applicable;
✔ the exposure time;
✔ the skin response;
✔ the patient’s reported comfort;
✔ the appearance of relevant clinical signs;
✔ the appropriate moment for neutralisation.
The technique and exposure time should never be determined automatically.
They should always be adapted to the functional condition of the skin and to the response observed during the session.
________________________________________
THE IMPORTANCE OF CLINICAL OBSERVATION
The same peel may produce different responses between patients and even between different anatomical areas of the same patient.
The response during the session may be influenced by:
✔ the thickness and compactness of the stratum corneum;
✔ sebaceous activity;
✔ the integrity of the barrier function;
✔ individual sensitivity;
✔ prior skin preparation;
✔ the amount of product applied;
✔ the exposure time;
✔ the technique used;
✔ previous treatments.
Continuous clinical observation enables the expected response to be recognised and allows early detection of any sign that justifies interrupting the procedure.
Patient safety should always take precedence over the intensity or duration initially planned.
________________________________________
PEEL NEUTRALISATION
Neutralisation of Mandelic Peel 30% is mandatory.
It should be carried out using the recommended neutraliser and in accordance with the TherapDerma professional protocol.
The timing of neutralisation will depend on:
✔ the defined exposure time;
✔ the observed clinical response;
✔ the characteristics of the treatment area;
✔ patient tolerance;
✔ the official technical instructions for the product.
Where the skin response justifies it, the procedure should be neutralised before the originally planned exposure time has been completed.
After applying the neutraliser, the professional should verify that the entire treatment area has been covered evenly and complete the removal of the product according to the established protocol.
Neutralisation stops the residual acid activity on the skin surface and constitutes an essential stage of the procedure.
________________________________________
IMMEDIATE POST-TREATMENT CARE
After neutralisation and complete removal of the product, solutions designed to promote skin comfort and support the barrier function may be applied.
The professional should instruct the patient to:
✔ use gentle cleansing products;
✔ apply the recommended restorative products;
✔ maintain daily broad-spectrum photoprotection;
✔ avoid direct sun exposure;
✔ temporarily discontinue potentially irritating cosmetics;
✔ avoid manipulating areas of desquamation;
✔ avoid other aesthetic procedures until the skin has recovered;
✔ report any unexpected reactions;
✔ follow the home-care instructions provided.
Post-treatment care forms part of the protocol and should be adapted to the observed skin response.
________________________________________
PATIENT FOLLOW-UP
Clinical assessment continues after the session has ended.
Follow-up enables evaluation of:
✔ the progress of epidermal renewal;
✔ recovery of the barrier function;
✔ tolerance to the procedure;
✔ the appearance of unexpected reactions;
✔ observed changes in texture and tone;
✔ the need to modify home-care recommendations;
✔ the suitability of a subsequent session;
✔ the possible integration of other procedures.
Continuation of the programme should not be considered automatic.
Each new session should be justified through appropriate professional reassessment.
________________________________________
CLINICAL DOCUMENTATION
Each procedure should be recorded clearly and comprehensively.
The documentation may include:
✔ updated medical history;
✔ assessment of indications and possible contraindications;
✔ informed consent, where applicable;
✔ standardised clinical photographs;
✔ product name;
✔ concentration and batch number;
✔ expiry date, where applicable;
✔ treatment area;

THERAPDERMA CONCLUSION
The professional application of Mandelic Peel 30% requires far more than simply distributing the product across the skin surface.
It requires rigorous clinical assessment, appropriate preparation, a controlled technique, continuous observation, mandatory neutralisation and post-treatment follow-up.
Each stage should be adapted to the functional condition of the skin, the observed biological response and the official technical instructions for the product.
Within the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™, this procedure is integrated with diagnosis, planning, documentation, reassessment and continuity of care.
This approach enables the development of progressive, individualised protocols that respect skin physiology while maintaining patient safety as the highest priority throughout every stage of treatment.
Clinical Protocols
Personalised protocols to promote progressive epidermal renewal and the physiological balance of the skin
TherapDerma Mandelic Peel 30% may be incorporated into different aesthetic medicine programmes according to the diagnosis, the functional characteristics of the skin and the established clinical objectives.
There is no universal protocol applicable to every patient.
Each programme should be individually designed by adapting:
✔ the indication;
✔ the technique;
✔ the exposure time;
✔ the frequency of sessions;
✔ the recovery intervals;
✔ post-treatment care;
✔ the possible integration with other procedures.
Thanks to its gradual epidermal diffusion and high tolerance profile, Mandelic Peel 30% may form part of protocols designed to promote the skin’s surface texture, visual tone uniformity and the physiological balance of the skin surface.
Planning, clinical observation, reassessment and progressive adaptation are fundamental principles of the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™.

✔ the use of home-care active ingredients.
Depigmenting skincare may be incorporated when indicated and always in a manner compatible with skin recovery.
Daily broad-spectrum photoprotection is an essential part of the protocol.
________________________________________
PROTOCOL FOR APPROPRIATELY SELECTED SENSITIVE SKIN
Objective
To promote superficial and progressive epidermal renewal while carefully adapting the procedure to individual tolerance.
The high molecular weight of Mandelic Acid is associated with more gradual epidermal diffusion than other Alpha Hydroxy Acids.
This characteristic may promote a high tolerance profile, but it does not eliminate the possibility of irritation or replace professional assessment.
Before beginning treatment, the following should be evaluated:
✔ the integrity of the barrier function;
✔ the degree of skin reactivity;
✔ the presence of erythema or inflammation;
✔ previous intolerance;
✔ recent procedures;
✔ home-use products.
The intensity, exposure time and frequency should be adapted according to the response observed during each session.

Objective
To promote a more even skin surface through superficial and progressive epidermal renewal.
May be considered when the patient presents:
✔ uneven skin texture;
✔ the appearance of visible pores;
✔ rough skin surface;
✔ visually uneven skin tone;
✔ loss of radiance.
Clinical evolution should be reassessed periodically by evaluating:
✔ recovery of the barrier function;
✔ tolerance;
✔ the evolution of skin texture;
✔ response to home-care treatment;
✔ the need to continue or modify the protocol.
________________________________________
SKIN PREPARATION PROTOCOL
Objective
To promote appropriate epidermal surface conditions before incorporating other medical-aesthetic procedures, when professionally indicated.
Following adequate skin recovery, Mandelic Peel 30% may form part of sequential planning that subsequently includes:
✔ mesotherapy;
✔ PDRN;
✔ biostimulation;
✔ LED therapy;
✔ radiofrequency;
✔ other appropriately selected technologies.
Prior exfoliation alone does not guarantee a better response to subsequent procedures.
New interventions should only be introduced after reassessing the skin and confirming that the barrier function has recovered.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Clear answers for responsible clinical practice
The use of chemical peels may raise questions regarding their mechanism of action, indications, tolerance and protocol planning.
The following answers bring together some of the most frequently asked questions arising during professional practice and TherapDerma training programmes.
Their purpose is to facilitate understanding of Mandelic Peel 30% and support its integration into personalised protocols, without replacing clinical assessment or the official technical instructions for the product.
________________________________________
What type of peel is Mandelic Peel 30%?
Mandelic Peel 30% is a professional superficial chemical peel formulated with 30% Mandelic Acid, belonging to the Alpha Hydroxy Acid family.
It has been developed to promote superficial and progressive epidermal renewal, with a high tolerance profile in appropriately selected patients.
Within individualised protocols, it may contribute to improving:
✔ skin surface texture;
✔ visual tone uniformity;
✔ the appearance of visible pores;
✔ the balance of the skin surface;
✔ the skin’s surface quality.
________________________________________
For which skin types may it be considered?
Mandelic Peel 30% may be considered for patients presenting:
✔ oily or combination skin;
✔ acne-prone skin without incompatible inflammatory processes;
✔ appropriately selected sensitive skin;
✔ the appearance of visible pores;
✔ uneven skin texture;
✔ superficial tone irregularities;
✔ early photoageing;
✔ the need for superficial and progressive epidermal renewal.
The final indication will always depend on the diagnosis, barrier function, sensitivity and the skin’s recovery capacity.
________________________________________
What is the difference between Mandelic Acid and Glycolic Acid?
Both belong to the Alpha Hydroxy Acid family, but they have different physicochemical properties.
Glycolic Acid has a lower molecular weight, whereas Mandelic Acid has a higher molecular weight and generally more gradual epidermal diffusion.
This characteristic may promote progressive activity and a high tolerance profile when the patient and protocol have been appropriately selected.
However, the actual intensity of a peel does not depend solely on the type of acid.
It is also influenced by:
✔ concentration;
✔ pH;
✔ vehicle;
✔ exposure time;
✔ number of layers;
✔ application technique;
✔ the functional condition of the skin.
The choice between the two should be based on the diagnosis and not on a hierarchy of superiority between acids.
________________________________________
Can it be used on sensitive skin?
It may be considered for certain patients with sensitive skin, provided that clinical assessment confirms its suitability.
The term “sensitive skin” does not in itself constitute an automatic indication.
Before beginning the procedure, the following should be assessed:
✔ the integrity of the barrier function;
✔ the degree of reactivity;
✔ the presence of erythema or inflammation;
✔ a history of intolerance;
✔ recent procedures;
✔ home-use products.
The high molecular weight of Mandelic Acid may promote more gradual diffusion, but it does not eliminate the risk of irritation.
________________________________________
How many sessions are usually recommended?
There is no universal number of sessions.
Planning will depend on:
✔ the clinical diagnosis;
✔ the functional condition of the skin;
✔ the established objectives;
✔ the observed tolerance;
✔ recovery of the barrier function;
✔ the evolution after each session;
✔ adherence to home care.
Continuation of the protocol should not be considered automatic.
Each new session should be decided following professional reassessment.
________________________________________
How frequently can it be applied?
The frequency should be established on an individual basis.
The interval between sessions will depend on:
✔ the skin response;
✔ recovery of the barrier function;
✔ the treatment area;
✔ the intensity of the procedure;
✔ post-treatment care;
✔ possible integration with other interventions.
A new session should not be performed while the skin presents irritation, unresolved desquamation or signs of incomplete recovery.
________________________________________
Can it be combined with other procedures?
Yes, when professionally indicated and once the skin has completed an adequate recovery.
Mandelic Peel 30% may form part of sequential planning alongside:
✔ mesotherapy;
✔ professional PDRN solutions;
✔ biostimulation;
✔ radiofrequency;
✔ LED therapy;
✔ professional home-care skincare;
✔ other appropriately selected medical-aesthetic technologies.
The combination should not be carried out automatically or necessarily during the same session.
The sequence and intervals should be adapted to the diagnosis, barrier function and the specific characteristics of each procedure.
________________________________________
Is it necessary to neutralise the peel?
Yes.
Neutralisation of Mandelic Peel 30% is mandatory.
It should be carried out using the recommended neutraliser and in accordance with the TherapDerma professional protocol and the official technical instructions for the product.
Where the skin response justifies it, the procedure should be neutralised before the originally planned exposure time has been completed.
Following neutralisation, complete removal of the product should be verified before applying post-treatment care.
________________________________________
What care should the patient follow after treatment?
Following the procedure, the patient should follow the recommendations provided by the professional.
These may include:
✔ using gentle cleansing products;
✔ applying the recommended restorative products;
✔ maintaining daily broad-spectrum photoprotection;
✔ avoiding direct sun exposure;
✔ temporarily discontinuing potentially irritating cosmetics;
✔ avoiding manipulation of areas of desquamation;
✔ avoiding other procedures until the skin has recovered;
✔ reporting any unexpected reactions.
Home care forms part of the protocol and contributes to promoting appropriate recovery.
________________________________________
Can it be used throughout the year?
Its use throughout the year will depend on professional assessment, anticipated sun exposure and the patient’s ability to comply with rigorous photoprotection.
Where recent or anticipated intense sun exposure exists, it may be necessary to modify the planning or postpone the procedure.
The decision should take into account:
✔ phototype;
✔ the risk of pigmentary response;
✔ the treatment area;
✔ the patient’s lifestyle;
✔ the season;
✔ adherence to photoprotection.
It should therefore not automatically be considered suitable throughout the year for every patient.
________________________________________
Can it form part of programmes addressing skin ageing?
It may be incorporated into programmes designed to promote the skin’s surface quality and address early signs of photoageing.
Within these protocols, it may contribute to:
✔ progressively improving skin surface texture;
✔ promoting a more even appearance of the skin tone;
✔ supporting visual radiance;
✔ maintaining a more uniform skin surface.
Its use alone does not prevent skin ageing.
It should be integrated with photoprotection, home care and other measures adapted to the patient’s characteristics.
________________________________________

THERAPDERMA CONCLUSION
TherapDerma Professional Academy™ is one of the pillars of the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™.
Its mission is to support professionals beyond the product itself by providing scientific education, clinical reasoning criteria and practical tools to support well-founded clinical decision-making.
At TherapDerma, we believe that clinical excellence does not begin with a peel, a technology or a mesotherapy solution.
It begins with a professional who understands the science, performs rigorous clinical assessment, respects skin physiology, recognises the limitations of every procedure and adapts every decision to the patient’s individual biological response.
This approach promotes personalised, structured clinical practice designed to maintain patient safety, continuity of care and professional excellence throughout the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™.
TherapDerma Clinical Decision System™
Transforming scientific knowledge into clinical decisions
Modern aesthetic medicine requires far more than simply understanding the characteristics of a product.
Every patient presents different biological needs, expectations and recovery capacities. For this reason, treatment selection should not be based solely on personal experience or on the automatic application of standardised protocols.
The TherapDerma Clinical Decision System™ (TCDS™) has been developed as a structured framework for clinical reasoning, designed to help professionals transform the information obtained during assessment into individualised, scientifically grounded decisions.
Its objective is to facilitate:
✔ clinical assessment;
✔ identification of indications and contraindications;
✔ definition of realistic objectives;
✔ procedure selection;
✔ individualised planning;
✔ observation and reassessment;
✔ clinical documentation;
✔ continuity of care.
The system does not replace professional judgement or the official technical instructions for each product.
________________________________________
STEP 1
CLINICAL ASSESSMENT AND DIAGNOSIS
Every protocol begins with a comprehensive patient assessment.
Before selecting a chemical peel, the professional should identify the skin’s needs and the factors that may influence its biological response.
The assessment may include:
✔ reason for consultation;
✔ patient expectations;
✔ medical and dermatological history;
✔ current medication;
✔ known allergies;
✔ previous medical and aesthetic treatments;
✔ skin type and functional characteristics;
✔ sebaceous activity;
✔ condition of the stratum corneum;
✔ integrity of the barrier function;
✔ skin sensitivity and reactivity;
✔ phototype;
✔ presence of lesions, irritation or inflammation;
✔ home-care skincare routine;
✔ lifestyle and sun exposure;
✔ ability to comply with post-treatment care.
A rigorous assessment enables appropriate indications to be recognised, potential contraindications to be identified and planning to be adapted to each patient.
________________________________________
STEP 2
IDENTIFICATION OF THE CLINICAL OBJECTIVE
Following the initial assessment, the principal objective of the protocol should be clearly defined.
For patients who are candidates for Mandelic Peel 30%, the objectives may include:
✔ promoting superficial and progressive epidermal renewal;
✔ supporting the physiological balance of the skin surface;
✔ contributing to the improvement of skin surface texture;
✔ improving the appearance of visible pores;
✔ supporting greater visual tone uniformity;
✔ progressively improving the appearance of acne-prone skin;
✔ initiating a professional Mandelic Acid programme;
✔ sequentially preparing the skin for other procedures, when professionally indicated;
✔ maintaining the skin’s surface quality within individualised programmes.
Defining the objective enables the most appropriate procedure to be selected and realistic expectations to be communicated to the patient.
________________________________________
STEP 3
PEEL SELECTION
The professional should determine whether Mandelic Peel 30% represents an appropriate option for the assessed patient.
The decision should take into account:
✔ sebaceous activity;
✔ skin sensitivity and reactivity;
✔ integrity of the barrier function;
✔ thickness and compactness of the stratum corneum;
✔ the presence of uneven skin texture;
✔ the appearance of visible pores;
✔ superficial tone irregularities;
✔ inflammatory activity;
✔ previous experience with peels;
✔ response to previous treatments;
✔ recovery capacity;
✔ the intended depth of action;
✔ the ability to comply with post-treatment care.
Mandelic Peel 30% may be considered when the objective is to promote superficial and progressive epidermal renewal while maintaining a high tolerance profile in appropriately selected patients.
The final indication should always be established through an individualised assessment.
________________________________________
STEP 4
PROTOCOL PERSONALISATION
The concentration of the peel represents only one of the factors influencing the skin response.
The protocol should be adapted by considering:
✔ prior skin preparation;
✔ cleansing and degreasing, when indicated;
✔ the amount of product;
✔ the number of layers;
✔ the extent of the treatment area;
✔ exposure time;
✔ application technique;
✔ clinical observation during the procedure;
✔ mandatory neutralisation;
✔ complete removal of the product;
✔ post-treatment care;
✔ home-care skincare;
✔ recovery intervals;
✔ session frequency;
✔ integration with other procedures;
✔ the response observed during previous sessions.
Personalisation enables the procedure to be adapted to the functional characteristics of the skin while reducing avoidable risks.
________________________________________
STEP 5
PROFESSIONAL APPLICATION
Application should follow the official technical protocol for TherapDerma Mandelic Peel 30%.
During the procedure, the professional should monitor:
✔ appropriate preparation of the treatment area;
✔ the amount and distribution of the product;
✔ the number of layers;
✔ exposure time;
✔ patient comfort;
✔ observed clinical signs;
✔ the need for early neutralisation before the originally planned exposure time;
✔ uniform neutralisation;
✔ complete removal of the product.
Patient safety and the observed skin response should always take precedence over automatic adherence to a predefined exposure time.
________________________________________
STEP 6
RECOVERY AND INTEGRATION OF OTHER PROCEDURES
Following the peel, sufficient time should be allowed for skin recovery.
Before introducing another procedure, the professional should confirm:
✔ recovery of the barrier function;
✔ absence of persistent irritation;
✔ resolution of significant desquamation;
✔ absence of unexpected reactions;
✔ compliance with home-care recommendations;
✔ clinical suitability for the next intervention.
When professionally indicated, the following may subsequently be incorporated:
✔ personalised mesotherapy;
✔ professional PDRN solutions;
✔ biostimulation;
✔ medical-aesthetic technologies;
✔ radiofrequency;
✔ LED therapy;
✔ professional home-care skincare.
These combinations should not be introduced automatically or necessarily during the same session.
The sequence and intervals should respect the characteristics of each procedure and the patient’s biological response.
________________________________________
STEP 7
CLINICAL FOLLOW-UP AND REASSESSMENT
Clinical decision-making continues after every session.
Follow-up enables assessment of:
✔ recovery of the barrier function;
✔ tolerance;
✔ the appearance of unexpected reactions;
✔ the evolution of skin surface texture;
✔ changes in the appearance of visible pores;
✔ the evolution of visual tone uniformity;
✔ the behaviour of the skin surface;
✔ adherence to home care;
✔ patient perception and satisfaction;
✔ the need to continue, modify, postpone or discontinue the protocol.
Each review provides information for adapting the subsequent phases.
Continuation of the programme should not be considered automatic.
________________________________________
STEP 8
CLINICAL DOCUMENTATION
Every procedure should be documented appropriately.
The record may include:
✔ initial assessment;
✔ indication;
✔ excluded contraindications;
✔ informed consent;
✔ product and concentration used;
✔ batch number and expiry date, where applicable;
✔ treatment area;
✔ skin preparation;
✔ number of layers;
✔ exposure time;
✔ observed response;
✔ timing and method of neutralisation;
✔ recommended post-treatment care;
✔ incidents;
✔ follow-up date;
✔ protocol modifications.
Documentation supports traceability and continuity of care.

The TherapDerma Clinical Decision System™ provides a structured framework to support the assessment, selection and planning of aesthetic medicine treatments.
Rather than offering fixed protocols, it organises clinical reasoning and facilitates the transformation of scientific knowledge into individualised, well-founded decisions.
Integrated within the TherapDerma Clinical Ecosystem™, it enables Mandelic Peel 30% to be incorporated into a strategy that includes:
✔ diagnosis;
✔ appropriate patient selection;
✔ protocol personalisation;
✔ controlled application;
✔ mandatory neutralisation;
✔ skin recovery;
✔ follow-up;
✔ documentation;
✔ continuity of care.
This approach may contribute to promoting superficial and progressive epidermal renewal, as well as gradual improvement in skin texture and the skin’s surface quality, when professionally indicated.
Every decision, every procedure and every phase should be adapted to the individual needs, tolerance, recovery and biological evolution of each patient.
