It exfoliates dead surface cells and stimulates collagen and elastin, essential to firmness and elasticity. During treatment, the solution penetrates middle skin layers to remove damaged cells and stimulate renewal. A few days later, the skin starts peeling, revealing a healthier, smoother, more radiant layer.<\/p>\n<h2>Indications for medium-depth peels<\/h2>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Medium-depth peels suit patients with several moderately severe skin concerns.<br>\u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/en\/needs\/wrinkles\/\" target=\"_self\">Wrinkles<\/a> and moderate <a href=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/en\/needs\/wrinkles\/fine-lines\/\" target=\"_self\">fine lines<\/a>: ideal for softening mild to moderate wrinkles, particularly around the eyes and mouth.<br>\u2022 Pigmented <a href=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/en\/needs\/skin-and-hair\/skin-pigmentation\/\" target=\"_self\">spots<\/a>: effective for age spots, sun spots and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.<br>\u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/en\/needs\/skin-and-hair\/acne-scars\/\" target=\"_self\">Acne scars<\/a>: superficial and medium-depth acne scars can be greatly reduced.<br>\u2022 Uneven or dull complexion.<br>\u2022 Improved skin quality, softness and evenness.<br>\u2022 Premature ageing: patients seeking to slow and treat visible ageing, often caused by prolonged sun exposure, can benefit.<br>\u2022 Overall rejuvenation: collagen stimulation makes skin look younger and revitalised.<br>\u2022 Skin laxity.<br>\u2022 A radiance boost.<br>\u2022 Keratoses.<br>\u2022 Actinic keratoses: Dr Romano prefers to leave these precancerous lesions to dermatologist colleagues.<br>\u2022 Enlarged pores.<\/p>\n<h2>Contraindication for a medium peel<\/h2>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/pourquoi-injecter-menton-768x512.webp\" alt=\"photo injection for a beautiful chin\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/pourquoi-injecter-menton-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/pourquoi-injecter-menton-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/pourquoi-injecter-menton-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/pourquoi-injecter-menton-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/pourquoi-injecter-menton-2048x1365.webp 2048w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/pourquoi-injecter-menton-18x12.webp 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Medium-depth peels cannot be performed in certain contraindicated situations:<br>\u2022 Pregnancy.<br>\u2022 A pacemaker or cardiac defibrillator.<br>\u2022 Chronic conditions such as diabetes or severe organ failure, including kidney or heart failure.<br>\u2022 Isotretinoin stopped less than a year ago.<br>\u2022 Current acne treatment.<br>\u2022 Recent aesthetic treatment (surgery, laser, dermabrasion).<br>\u2022 Skin infection or herpes.<br>\u2022 Dark phototypes.<br>\u2022 Contact skin allergies.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"594\" src=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Indications-laserpeel.webp\" alt=\"photo of perfect skin after peeling\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Indications-laserpeel.webp 750w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Indications-laserpeel-300x238.webp 300w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Indications-laserpeel-15x12.webp 15w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<h2>Areas treated with a medium peel<\/h2>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">The medium peel can be performed on several areas of the body, although the face is the most commonly treated area.

On the body, apart from the face, it is only possible to perform the medium-superficial peel.<br>\u2022 Face : to treat wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and pigment spots.<br>\u2022 Neck : to firm and even out the skin of the neck, often marked by signs of aging.<br>\u2022 D\u00e9collet\u00e9 : this area, often exposed to the sun, may show pigment spots and fine lines that can be corrected with the medium peel.<br>\u2022 Hands : to rejuvenate the skin of the hands and treat age spots.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Seance-peeling-superficiel-1.jpg\" alt=\"photo showing a peel session\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Seance-peeling-superficiel-1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Seance-peeling-superficiel-1-300x260.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Seance-peeling-superficiel-1-14x12.jpg 14w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<h2>How a medium peel session works<\/h2>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">An experienced doctor performs the peel in a medical practice.<br>A prior consultation assesses individual needs and suitability for skin and aesthetic goals.<br>Arrive without make-up, contact lenses or facial cream.

The laser significantly improves skin laxity.<br>\u2022 With equivalent results, laser peeling leads to fewer complications and lighter after-effects than chemical peeling.<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">After thorough cleansing, the laser beam precisely and controllably sweeps the area, adjusting exfoliation depth to individual needs. Removing dead cells and promoting collagen production stimulates regeneration. Less invasive than a traditional chemical peel, it allows faster recovery with visible smoothing, brightening and overall skin quality improvements.<\/p>\n<h2>Precautions before a medium peel<\/h2>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-adolescente-768x512.webp\" alt=\"photo of the age to start peels\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-adolescente-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-adolescente-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-adolescente-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-adolescente-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-adolescente-2048x1365.webp 2048w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-adolescente-18x12.webp 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Skin preparation is mandatory: it improves and evens penetration and prevents possible post-peel rebound pigmentation.<br>Precautions ensure treatment effectiveness and safety.<br>\u2022 Avoid sun: for one month beforehand, avoid prolonged exposure and apply high-protection sunscreen.<br>\u2022 Skin preparation: apply glycolic-acid cream at night for three weeks beforehand and stop all exfoliating products or procedures, including hair removal, scrubs and laser treatments, during these three weeks.<\/p>\n<h2>Precautions after a medium peel<\/h2>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-homme-768x512.webp\" alt=\"photo of a peel for men\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-homme-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-homme-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-homme-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/drromanovaleria.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/peeling-homme-18x12.webp 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">After a medium peel, the skin is more sensitive and requires special care for a fast and optimal healing process. <br>\u2022 Taking prescribed medications : Dr. Romano prescribes antibiotics, herpes prevention, and a healing cream for ten days.<br>\u2022 Strict sun protection : sun exposure must be avoided for one month, during which a broad-spectrum sunscreen should be applied every day.<br>\u2022 Hydration : use the recommended healing cream to help maintain hydration and promote healing.<br>\u2022 Do not touch the skin : scabs or dead skin that form should not be picked off, in order to prevent scarring.<br>\u2022 Medical follow-up : a medical follow-up is planned; it will allow the patient to discuss with the physician and follow the advice given during consultations.<\/p>\n<h2>Results before \/ after a medium-depth peel<\/h2>\n<p>Results start becoming visible about a week later, once peeling ends. Skin looks smoother, brighter and younger. Pigmentation fades, fine lines diminish and skin quality improves. Depending on depth, results may last several years.<\/p>\n<h3>Aftercare<\/h3>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Marked redness and swelling last about forty-eight hours. From the third day, skin turns brownish, then peels over about seven days, revealing pink, toned new epidermis. Pinkness may persist for nearly a month.<br>For a true medium-depth peel, plan around one week of social downtime.<\/p>\n<h2>What complications can occur after a medium-depth peel?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Rare but possible complications include:<br>\u2022 Swelling, persistent redness or excessive shedding or exfoliation.<br>\u2022 Bacterial infection (impetigo) or viral infection (herpes outbreak).<br>\u2022 Acne flare requiring specific treatment.<br>\u2022 Hyperpigmentation (darker spots) or depigmentation (white spots).<br>\u2022 Demarcation lines at treated boundaries (hairline, jaw).<\/p>\n<h2>Quel est le prix d&rsquo;un peeling moyen \u00e0 Gen\u00e8ve ?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">A medium-depth peel generally costs between 600 CHF and 1200 CHF per session. Price mainly depends on depth, the complexity of the concern (marked pigmentation, scars, laxity, keratosis) and area size.<br>Unlike superficial peels, it acts deeper, allowing the desired result from the first session. One session usually suffices; selected cases may need additional treatment following assessment.<br>A full clinical assessment at the initial consultation establishes a tailored protocol and a precise, transparent quotation.<\/p>\n<h2>Medium-depth peel reviews<\/h2>\n<p class=\"translation-block\">The majority of patients who have opted for a medium-depth peel are satisfied with the results, particularly in terms of improved skin quality and reduced pigmentation. Many appreciate the quality of the skin rejuvenation achieved without resorting to invasive techniques. <br>However, there is a recovery period that can be relatively long (up to two weeks), during which the skin peels and is sensitive.
