What is a Massage Peel?
Massage Peel (PRX-T33) is a new peeling agent developed by WiQo med, an Italian company . Previous peeling methods aimed to artificially remove unnecessary keratin using chemicals and beauty equipment to regulate the disturbance of cell turnover. Peeling forcibly peels off the stratum corneum with chemicals, so depending on the skin type and type of peeling agent, it is not uncommon to feel irritation such as redness or stinging. In addition, some treatments require several days of downtime, such as severe peeling or scabs after the treatment.
However, massage peel is very different from previous peels in that it does not remove keratin, but instead acts directly and deeply on the dermis layer to stimulate fibroblast activation . Fibroblasts are cells that produce collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid , and the increase or decrease in these substances determines the youthfulness of skin, including firmness and wrinkles . As massage peel has the effect of increasing collagen, it is a skin quality improvement treatment that is also known as collagen peeling .
A massage peel that penetrates deeply but is gentle on the skin
Massage Peel is a peeling agent that can act deep in the stratum corneum, down to the dermis layer . The secret lies in trichloroacetic acid (TCA).
Among peeling agents, TCA is said to act on the dermis layer, which is deep in the skin, and has been used to improve severe acne scars that have become pores or craters. However, peeling with TCA causes strong pain and inflammatory reactions, and requires downtime, such as the formation of scabs for about 3 to 10 days.
Massage Peel (PRX-T33) contains 33% TCA, which has a strong peeling effect. However, the unique blend of hydrogen peroxide minimizes the inflammatory reaction to the skin while maintaining the strong penetrating power of TCA, and is a peeling agent that aims to reconstruct the dermal layer tissue. It also contains 5% kojic acid, which is said to be a whitening ingredient, so it is said that repeated massage peel treatments will lead to clearer skin.
Massage peel for these skin concerns
The effects that can be expected from massage peel include improving rough skin (comedones), acne , wrinkles , and blemishes . Its effects are not limited to the surface of the skin, but also activate fibroblasts in the deeper dermis layer, promoting the production of skin collagen and elastin. For these reasons, massage peel can also be used to treat skin problems such as stretch marks and stretch marks.
Massage peel is also a treatment that is often used to improve melasma, which is difficult to treat.
Melasma is a type of blemish that appears symmetrically mainly under the corners of the eyes and around the cheekbones . It is believed to be caused by hormonal imbalance and becomes darker when exposed to ultraviolet rays. Melasma is different from general age spots (senile lentigo) and may worsen depending on the type of laser , so when treating it, it is necessary to examine in detail whether it is a blemish or melasma.
Melasma often occurs together with general age spots , making it a very troublesome skin problem. However, massage peel is considered a very efficient treatment method because it can address both general age spots and melasma at the same time.
Massage peel has no downtime and you can put on makeup right after the treatment, so many clinics advertise it as a casual treatment that feels like going to a beauty salon. However, because massage peel is a medical procedure that affects the dermis layer, it must be performed with care. When considering a massage peel treatment, make sure that the medical institution (beauty clinic) is one where a thorough medical examination by a doctor is performed.
The dangers of self-massage peels imported by individuals
Nowadays, it is possible to easily purchase various cosmetics and medicines from overseas through the Internet. Massage peel preparations (PRX-T33) are no exception, and can be seen being sold on many personal import sites. However, it can be difficult for the average person to tell whether these are genuine or counterfeit.
There are many fake massage peel products on the market today. However, if you use these fake massage peel products for self-care and develop serious skin problems, you will be held responsible for any damage. Even if they are genuine, massage peel products must be refrigerated during transportation, and they contain very delicate ingredients. If they temporarily reach room temperature during personal import, the buyer will not notice any changes in the ingredients.
In addition, importing massage peel preparations for personal use and using them to treat others is a violation of the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Act. Please be extremely careful about importing them for personal use or using them on your skin.
Hiro Clinic Massage Peel Treatment Process
First, a doctor will examine you to determine your exact skin condition. After examining your physical condition and whether you have any allergies, if massage peel is suitable for your skin problems, you will be asked to sign a consent form and treatment will begin immediately.
You will be transferred to the treatment room, change into a gown if necessary, and lie down on the treatment table. The massage peel will be performed by a nurse. The massage peel preparation will be applied to the treatment area, and the treatment will be spread by massaging in a circular motion to allow the medication to penetrate deep into the skin. During the treatment, you may feel a slight burning sensation or tingling, but this is nothing to worry about even if you don’t like pain. In the unlikely event that you feel unbearable pain or irritation, please tell the nurse immediately.
Repeat this several times, then thoroughly wipe off the massage peel preparation with a sponge soaked in water . After checking for any abnormalities such as redness or stinging on the skin, cool the area and finish by applying WiQo Moisturizing Nourishing Cream. WiQo Moisturizing Nourishing Cream is a highly safe doctor’s cosmetic developed by WiQo med for skin care after massage peel treatment.
Massage peel can be applied to the whole body, including the neck, décolleté, and back, in addition to the face. It is also said that massage peel treatments on the body are less likely to cause redness or stinging compared to the face. By applying massage peel treatments to rough areas such as the upper arms, or the back and chest where acne is likely to occur , you can achieve smooth, healthy skin. Massage peel treatments on the backs of the hands, which are particularly prone to showing signs of aging, can improve dry wrinkles and lead to youthful, plump skin on the hands.
Things to be careful of after massage peel treatment
Massage peel is a cosmetic medical treatment with almost no downtime. It is possible to wear makeup immediately after massage peel treatment, but the skin is delicate. It is important to protect the skin from UV rays with UV cream and avoid irritation such as rubbing too hard. Also, please note that excessive drinking or strenuous exercise on the day of massage peel treatment may prolong the redness of the skin.
Because skin turnover is promoted, peeling may occur a few days after the massage peel treatment. In most cases, only a slight dryness occurs around the nose, but even if it bothers you, do not force the peel off and avoid irritating the skin until the peeling subsides. If the symptoms are severe or the peeling continues for a long time, please consult Hiro Clinic Cosmetic Dermatology .
