Does the Cosmo Peel hurt?
You may feel a mild tingling or warmth during application, with sensations typically subsiding once the peel is neutralised with post-care cream. We monitor your comfort throughout the process and apply only the necessary number of layers for your skin.
Expect some redness and visible peeling over the first 3-5 days, depending on your skin’s response. This is completely normal and part of the skin renewal process. Most patients plan their peel at least a week ahead of any events to allow for full recovery.
How much downtime should I expect?
Cosmo Peel is suitable for most skin types, but not all. We always conduct a professional assessment before treatment - especially if you have sensitive skin, active breakouts, or a darker skin types. It is not recommended if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding.
Can anyone do this peel?
Most clients see significant improvement in 2 to 4 treatments, spaced several weeks apart. The number of sessions depends on the depth of the issue being treated and how your skin responds to each peel.
How many sessions will I need?
Both are medium-depth TCA peels, but 15% is more intensive. Based on your skin goals and current condition, we’ll determine which concentration is most effective (and safest) for you.
What’s the difference between 12% and 15%?
About
Dermaceutic Laboratoire’s Cosmo Peel, is a medium-depth, professional-grade chemical peel powered by a 12% or 15% trichloroacetic acid (TCA). Designed for clients looking to tackle deeper skin concerns, it penetrates past the surface layer to stimulate collagen production, reduce pigmentation, and refine texture to rejuvenate the skin’s appearance.
This isn’t your average exfoliation; expect visible peeling and a few days of downtime as your skin goes through its natural regeneration cycle. However the result is definitely worth it, with skin that’s smoother, brighter, firmer, and visibly renewed.
With two concentration levels (12% and 15%), your practitioner will choose the right strength for your skin’s needs and tolerance.
Whether you’re targeting fine lines, acne scars, or uneven tone, Cosmo Peel delivers intensive results that superficial treatments can’t touch.
