The PRX-T33 peel is a trichloroacetic acid peel invented about ten years ago. In this peel, TCA 33% is complexed with hydrogen peroxide. This makes it possible to stimulate the synthesis of denser and more hydrated skin without the exfoliation associated with traditional peels.
The PRX-T33 is a peel with trichloroacetic acid (TCA) that stimulates skin regeneration and treats signs of aging such as wrinkles and fine lines. It provides an immediate glow, increases the brightness of the treated areas, corrects skin imperfections and has a plumping effect.
It is used on the face, neck, décolleté, hands, and body.
On the body, this treatment is of interest for treating crepey skin of the abdomen, knees, and elbows.
This anti-aging peel is not invasive and does not cause desquamation. It can be performed in summer and on tanned skin because it is not photosensitizing and does not cause exfoliation.
The PRX-T33 peel is an innovative procedure in aesthetic-oriented medicine, this treatment stands out due to the absence of visible exfoliation usually associated with traditional chemical peels.
This treatment uses a unique formulation combining TCA (trichloroacetic acid) at 33%, kojic acid, and hydrogen peroxide.
Trichloroacetic acid penetrates deeply into the skin, stimulating cellular regeneration and collagen production without causing visible desquamation.
Hydrogen peroxide modulates the action of TCA, reducing the risk of irritation and facilitating tissue regeneration.
Kojic acid acts as a depigmenting agent, helping to even out the complexion and reduce pigment spots.
These components revitalize the skin, improve its quality, firmness, and radiance, without the side effects of traditional peels and without social downtime. PRX-T33 is ideal for patients who want effective and gentle skin rejuvenation, without desquamation and suitable in all seasons.
