      Glycolic acid peels

      peelsChemical peels mean procedures performed in order to remove small spots remaining after acne, to smoothen and to restore the skin of the face and body, to inspire the feeling of freshness, and to improve its structure.

      Glycolic acid is a mild acid that exists in the nature in the natural form of alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) and belongs to the group of chemical peels, which remove the superficial micro-layer of epidermis. At the same time, the procedure stimulates the generation of new, healthy, young cells and formation of a new skin layer. Besides, glycolic acid promotes the production of elastic and collagenic fibre. Owing to these properties of glycolic acid, small skin lines and wrinkles as well as superficial pigmentation irregularities decrease or disappear, the skin texture improves, and it becomes smooth and tender.

      The procedure is performed:

      • in the therapy of post acne, i.e. of reddish stains and small red scars that remain after acne;
      • for the treatment of acne, especially in case of whiteheads and blackheads;
      • in case of expanded pores;
      • in order to reduce or eliminate small skin lines and wrinkles;
      • for the treatment of dry skin areas;
      • in case of pigmentation disorders;
      • for the smoothening of dry flaky skin;
      • for the improvement of skin structure and inspiring the skin with a more vital color;

      After the procedure, the doctor can prescribe application of a cleanser on the basis of glycolic acid, or a lotion or cream containing much lesser concentrations of glycolic acid than those for everyday skin care in order to improve its structure.

      When are the procedures applied?

      Procedures are applied for women and men who wish to improve the condition and appearance of their skin and for whom a long duration of the procedure is not acceptable (which is required when performing deeper peels).

      The procedures are performed in the areas of the face, neck, arms, and even legs. After the solution is applied to the skin, you will feel some tingling.

      Glycolic acid peels are performed with different concentrations. Peeling procedures with a high glycolic acid concentration (20-70 per cent) may be conducted only by specialist doctors.

      How many procedures will have to be performed?

      Depending on the achieved result and the acid concentration applied, the number of procedures fluctuates within the range of 2 to 4. As soon as after the first procedure, as a result of the removal of lifeless layer of skin cells, the colour of the skin will improve, and it will become younger. If there are any residual post acne manifestations, it is necessary to perform 3 to 10 procedures – scars disappear obviously after each procedure. Glycolic acid peels are performed every 14-20 days. After the procedures, it is necessary to apply sun protective factor (SPF) 25–30.

      Peelings and light – emitting diodes

      In our clinic, peeling procedures are often combined with LED procedures. Peeling procedures remove lifeless superficial layer, while red light facilitates natural revitalisation of the skin.

      Dermatologists will help you to achieve better results owing to the combination of rejuvenation (revitalisation) with the use of lasers/light sources and other procedures such as injections of hyaluronic fillers and mesotherapy. During the preliminary detailed consultation, you will discuss your desires and expectations with the doctor and the doctor will evaluate the current condition of the skin and will give advice as to how to achieve the anticipated results in the most efficient manner.

      I am very satisfied and would like to share my feelings about it with you. I found the clinic randomly while in search of a hair removal procedure using the most advanced laser technology. I discovered that Era Esthetic clinic is the only clinic in the Baltic states which uses the Alexandrito laser. This laser ensures very quick and effective results. I am very satisfied with the procedures and really recommend them to everybody. Over time and due to daily stress our skin loses its moisture, brightness and firmness, so I had a consultation with doctor Jurgita Stoškienė, who is qualified to the highest level, and who examined the skin very pleasantly and offered especially effective procedures. The results were obvious after the first procedure. The procedure I often have is HydraFacial, performed by Viktorija and Alina, who are masters of the process. I trust in them and give myself completely into their hands. I understand that regardless of what you are searching for,it is always best to come here, as only here can you find everything in one place – the best specialists, and the latest innovative technologies and hardware. All this is proven over time by the results and excellent service you will experience after going through the doors of the amazing clinic Era Esthetic.

      I am not a frequent visitor of beauty and aesthetics clinics but I think carefully about where to go if the need arises.

      Their qualified professionals and very pleasant atmosphere is why I always go to Era Esthetic clinic when any problems arise in relation to my body or skin.

      Respectfully,

The skin becomes smooth and clear and the results are visible immediately!

      Our faces are our voiceless business cards. Moreover, every woman seeks a healthy and flawless look of her skin. I’m no exception.

      Our faces are our voiceless business cards. Moreover, every woman seeks a healthy and flawless look of her skin. I’m no exception. In addition, my work requires me to take special care of my face – quite frequent use of decorative cosmetic products requires proper care of the skin. So, in order to achieve the results I wanted, I chose the HydraFacial treatment at ERA ESTHETIC clinic. I think you will be curious to learn more about the process as well as the effects that this treatment has. Basically, it is a patented non-invasive skin rejuvenation, deep cleansing and moisturising skin care done by modern aesthetic cosmetology technology – otherwise known as an ‘all-inclusive’ treatment. Today, Hydrafacial is included in the list of the most popular cosmetic treatments performed at prestigious medical clinics and spas all around the world. This procedure has three parts. Firstly, the skin is effectively cleansed; it gets exposed to a vacuum; it’s actively moisturised by different active serums. And all this is done simultaneously, which saves us time. Isn’t that great? The treatment was done by a great cosmetologist and beauty therapist, Alina Mockevičienė, and it lasted for about 45 minutes. You know, the face is quite a sensitive, I would even say intimate, part of our body, so it’s important to choose a specialist you trust; that way you can rest assured that you are in the hands of a professional. I would highly recommend Alina because in her chair I felt super safe and comfortable. I’ll tell you what kind of results I experienced after the first treatment: it restored the elasticity of my skin, as it had been looking rather tired lately. My skin was deep-cleansed. This means the reduced enlarged pores – and, believe me, with my job specifics I’m really not lacking them…The texture and tone of my skin have improved! Before the treatment, I had noticed that my face was somewhat greyish. Another good thing that will become even more important as time goes on is that this treatment slows down the ageing of the skin! And, although I am only 23 years old and the ageing process has not started yet (it usually starts at 25 years), preventive measures are always welcome and the sooner we start taking care of the skin, the more beneficial it will be for us. To tell the truth, if seeking maximum results this kind of treatment should be done once a month or as needed. I can confirm that the treatment did not cause any discomfort; in fact, it stimulated the skin in rather a pleasant way and was relaxing. As Alina would say, it is like being given a small kiss on your face by a kitten – somewhat scratchy, but at the same time very pleasant. I hope that the kitten will kiss you as well, leaving you glowing and even more beautiful!!!
