The skin is cleansed, the solution is applied with massaging movements or zone by zone, and a soothing or repair cream goes on last. No anaesthetic is used; most patients describe mild tingling or warmth that passes quickly.<\/p><ul><li>With APPeex, the peel and cream stay on and you wash your face at home after 6\u20138 hours.<\/li><li>Course: BioRePeelCl3 body and Bienpeel usually 4\u20136 sessions 7\u201310 days apart; PRX-T33 4\u20136, weekly; APPeex 3, 3\u20134 weeks apart, then every 3 months; BioRePeelCl3 face usually 3\u20136, intervals set by the specialist.<\/li><\/ul><h2>Who should not have a chemical peel?<\/h2><ul><li>pregnancy and breastfeeding;<\/li><li>an active cold sore, inflamed acne or other acute skin inflammation;<\/li><li>open wounds, damaged skin or infection in the area;<\/li><li>allergy or intolerance to ingredients, including TCA;<\/li><li>a recent strong tan;<\/li><li>autoimmune disease (PRX-T33, BioRePeelCl3 body);<\/li><li>a flare of atopic dermatitis or psoriasis (APPeex).<\/li><\/ul><p>Vascular problems and diabetes also rule out the body peel. The final decision is made by the specialist at the consultation.<\/p><h2>After the treatment<\/h2><p>The skin may be slightly red or tight, occasionally flaking a little; rubbing and picking at flakes should be avoided. Daily SPF 50 is essential: at least 7 days after PRX-T33 and BioRePeelCl3, at least 2 weeks after APPeex. Saunas, heavy sweating and exercise are avoided for 24\u201348 hours, and tanning, sunbeds, retinol and exfoliants for about a week.<\/p><h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2><h3>Can I have a chemical peel in summer?<\/h3><p>Yes. These peels do not cause heavy peeling and are done year-round, provided you avoid tanning before and after and use SPF 50 daily.<\/p><h3>Will my skin peel afterwards?<\/h3><p>Usually not visibly. Slight tightness, dryness or minor flaking can still occur and settles within a few days.<\/p><h3>Can I have a peel after botulinum injections or fillers?<\/h3><p>A gap is needed: Bienpeel at least 2 weeks after botulinum injections and 3\u20134 weeks after fillers, PRX-T33 and APPeex 3\u20134 weeks after injections. After laser, at least 4 weeks should pass before Bienpeel.<\/p><h3>How is BioRePeelCl3 different from biorevitalisation?<\/h3><p><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/categories\/biorevitalisatsioon-en\/\">Biorevitalisation<\/a> injects hyaluronic acid into the skin. BioRePeelCl3 is applied to the surface without needles; it exfoliates and hydrates, so it is described as a needle-free alternative. The consultation shows which suits your skin.<\/p><p>The service is provided by Melior Clinics (Star Company O\u00dc, Estonian Health Board licence L04198), Liivalaia 53, Tallinn, Stockmann department store, 5th floor.<\/p>"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/1239","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/product_cat"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?product_cat=1239"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
