Body peeling is a specific treatment designed to remove dead skin cells, bringing cleanliness, freshness, softness and luminosity. It improves oxygenation and cell renewal, and with it, the appearance of your skin.
People are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of doing a peeling from time to time. It is especially recommended before and after summer—at the beginning of the summer season as an exfoliant to renew the skin, and at the end of summer to minimise the effects of the sun, the sea and the wind, thus avoiding premature aging of the skin.
The product is applied by means of a gentle massage, harmoniously alternating longitudinal and circular movements. Then the product is removed with a shower, and the treatment finishes with a relaxing massage. The result is a pleasant feeling of relaxation and well-being.
A treatment that includes both peeling and massage (this is usually the case) lasts 90 minutes.
The peeling product can be thicker or thinner, depending on the type of skin and the needs of each client, making this a totally personalized treatment.
The peeling products that I use the most are:
Laminaria salt
* Provides minerals and trace elements from Laminaria algae.
* Facilitates the elimination of dead cells.
* Remineralising.
* Toning.
Volcanic lava
* Excellent regulator for the skin, removing impurities and dead cells.
* Not harmful or aggressive. Unbeatable nutrition.
* Reduces roughness and imperfections.
* Purifying and regenerating properties.
Sugar cane
* High nutritional value.
* Great pulling power to remove dead cells and promote skin renewal.
* The glycolic acid content of sugar stimulates the formation of new collagen, essential for maintaining healthy, nourished and youthful skin.
