Depth depends on the acid, its strength and how long it stays on: a superficial peel works in the epidermis, a medium peel reaches the upper dermis. Deep phenol peels are rarely used today, and only under general anaesthesia in a surgical setting.<\/p><p>Melior&#8217;s peels are based on trichloroacetic acid (TCA). In PRX-T33, hydrogen peroxide softens the effect of TCA, so the skin does not visibly peel. Ingredients are listed on the <a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/categories\/acid-peeling\/\">acid peels<\/a> page.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>Why peel in autumn and winter?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>After a peel the skin is more sensitive to sun, and UV raises the risk of dark spots, especially on darker skin and in people who mark easily. In autumn and winter it is easier to avoid tanning before a peel (5 days to 2 weeks for Melior&#8217;s peels) and to protect the skin afterwards. A course of 4\u20136 sessions can finish before the spring sun.<\/p><p>Melior&#8217;s peels do not cause heavy peeling and also suit summer, with SPF 50 every day. For pigment spots, see the guide <a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/pigmentation-and-broken-capillaries\/\">Pigmentation and broken capillaries<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>How to prepare<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>For 3\u20137 days before, skip retinol, AHA and BHA acids and scrubs; avoid tanning and self-tan for 5 days to 2 weeks, depending on the peel. Before deeper peels, skin is sometimes prepared with creams for several weeks \u2013 the specialist decides.<\/p><p>If you get cold sores often, mention it beforehand: for deeper peels, antiviral prevention starts 2 days before. Medicines are also discussed at the consultation, especially those that increase sun sensitivity, and isotretinoin.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>Combining peels with other treatments<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>In a randomised trial, a medium-depth peel was done 7 days after botulinum toxin; in another small study, on the same day. Melior&#8217;s gaps are longer (see above). Between <a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/plasma-therapy\/\">plasma therapy<\/a> and a peel in the same area at least 2 weeks are left, and at least 3\u20134 weeks between ELOS and a peel.<\/p><p>There is a separate guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/how-long-does-botox-last\/\">how long botulinum toxin lasts<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>Contraindications<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Autoimmune disease is a contraindication for PRX-T33, and a flare of atopic dermatitis or psoriasis for APPeex. After isotretinoin, medium and deep peels are not done for 6 months according to the IADVL guideline; for superficial peels, the specialist decides.<\/p><p>On darker skin (phototypes IV\u2013VI) the risk of pigment changes and scarring is higher, so lighter peels are chosen. The final decision is made by the specialist at the consultation.<\/p><\/div><\/details><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"mg mg-faq melior-faq\"><h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2><details><summary>Does a chemical peel hurt?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>A superficial peel usually doesn&#8217;t hurt: a few minutes of stinging or warmth, with no need for numbing. A medium peel burns and is more painful. Melior&#8217;s peels are designed for minimal peeling.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>How much does a chemical peel cost in Tallinn?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>At Melior Clinics, Bienpeel for the face and neck costs \u20ac110, PRX-T33 and APPeex from \u20ac125, BioRePeelCl3 for face, neck and d\u00e9collet\u00e9 \u20ac125, and pHformula facials from \u20ac80 (price list 25.10.2026). A course is usually needed.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>Can I get a chemical peel after botox?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Yes, with a gap. At Melior, Bienpeel is done at least 2 weeks after botulinum toxin, and PRX-T33 and APPeex 3\u20134 weeks after. Studies offer no single standard; the specialist sets the exact gap.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>How long does skin peel after a peel?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>After a superficial peel, flaking is light or absent; the American Academy of Dermatology says it lasts 3\u20137 days. After a medium peel, crusting and peeling last 7\u201314 days. Flakes should not be picked.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>Can I have a peel in summer?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Melior&#8217;s peels, yes, all year: they don&#8217;t cause heavy peeling. The condition is no tanning around the treatment and SPF 50 every day. Deeper peels are easier to plan for autumn and winter.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>Can I have a peel while pregnant?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>No: pregnancy and breastfeeding are contraindications for all acid peels at Melior. If your skin bothers you during this time, discuss it with a dermatologist.<\/p><\/div><\/details><details><summary>How many sessions do I need?<\/summary><div class=\"a\"><p>Usually a course: PRX-T33 and Bienpeel 4\u20136 sessions a week to 10 days apart, APPeex 3 sessions 3\u20134 weeks apart, then every 3 months.
