Mandelic acid peeling: the ideal solution for demanding skin

More and more people are turning to cosmetic treatments to optimise their skin care.
One option is mandelic acid peeling, which is an alpha hydroxy acid(AHA) and is becoming increasingly popular due to its effectiveness.
Mandelic acid peeling is the best choice for oily skin, enlarged pores, hyperpigmentation, freckles, acne and acne scars as well as fine lines and wrinkles.

Mandelic acid peeling, ideal for acne scars
Mandelic acid peeling, a chemical peeling for professional users from Utsukusy Cosmetics, is characterised by its high molecular weight, which ensures that it penetrates the skin more slowly and is therefore less irritating.
It is therefore particularly gentle and ideal for combating skin ageing such as fine lines, wrinkles and fine lines and improving the skin's appearance.
It also helps to stimulate cell division and thus create a smoother and finer skin texture.
The mandelic acid peeling from Utsukusy Cosmetics is also an excellent choice before microneedling treatments. This is because it ensures that the active ingredients used in microneedling can penetrate the skin better.
The set contains everything you need for a professional peel: 60 ml natural acid with a pH value of 2.8 to 3.0, a pre-peel disinfectant solution 150 ml and a post-peel neutralisation solution 150 ml.

Mandelic acid peel: areas of application and benefits
It is suitable for a variety of skin problems such as wrinkles, fine lines, oily and acne-prone skin, hyperpigmentation and freckles as well as light-induced skin ageing.
Acid peeling can also be used to treat scars, especially acne scars.
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Oily and acne-prone skin
- Pigment spots and freckles
- Photoaging, i.e. light-induced skin ageing
- Scars, especially acne scars
The properties of the peeling help the skin to renew itself and become firmer.
The skin is freed from dead cells and can therefore distribute pigments more evenly.
Active ingredients applied after a peel can also penetrate deeper into the skin.

Properties of mandelic acid
Over the course of time, the skin produces less and less collagen, which reduces the elasticity and resilience of the skin - the connective tissue loses its firmness.
Now is the time for fruit acids to be used.
Of course, this not only applies to ageing skin, but also to skin conditions such as acne scars, pigmentation spots, large pores or freckles that bother you.
Fruit acids can penetrate the uppermost layers of the skin.
They stimulate cell division, which makes it easier to remove the superficial horny scales.
Fruit acids re-energise the skin by stimulating regeneration and the skin's own collagen production.
In addition, the removal of part of the upper skin layer reduces wrinkles and fine lines.
Fruit acids loosen the cell bonds between the individual horny cells, making it easier to remove the top layers of skin and dead horny scales.
The regeneration of keratinocytes is also stimulated, which leads to a thickening of the epidermis.
This makes the skin more resistant and better able to retain moisture.
Fruit acid peels not only lead to a smoother and finer skin texture, but also to a radiant and even complexion, as pigmentation spots and age spots are also whitened and the skin's pigments are evenly distributed.
After a mandelic acidpeel, active ingredients that are applied to the skin can be better absorbed and penetrate deeper into the skin.
Mandelic acid peel before microneedling - synergy for radiant skin
A mandelic acid peel before a microneedling treatment is the perfect preparation for radiant skin.
It is a true helper that gently but effectively combats impurities, dead skin cells and fine lines.
Used before a microneedling treatment, the acid plays a crucial role in preparing your skin for the revitalisation to come.
- Gentle exfoliation: Mandelic acid, derived from almonds, is known for its gentle exfoliating action. This peeling gently removes dead skin cells, opens the pores and smoothes the skin's surface. This creates the ideal base for microneedling, as the needles can penetrate the skin more effectively to achieve optimal results.
- Refined skin texture: The combination of mandelic acid peeling and microneedling aims to refine the skin texture. The peel prepares the skin by removing impurities, while microneedling stimulates collagen production and improves the skin's texture from the inside out. The result? An even, radiant complexion.
- Maximising the absorption of active ingredients: The acid gently opens the top layer of skin, which improves the absorption of nourishing active ingredients during the microneedling treatment. The synergistic effect of both procedures enables deeper penetration of serums and creams, providing the skin with maximum moisturisation and radiant results.
- Reduction of skin problems: Acid derived from almonds has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce skin problems such as acne and hyperpigmentation. Using it before microneedling therefore offers a double benefit: reducing skin problems and promoting collagen production for healthier skin.
Application of the fruit acid peel
- Apply Pree-Peel Solution with a gauze to the face, neck and décolleté.
- Then apply the chemical peeling (acid) with a fan brush. Leave the fruit acid peeling on for at least four minutes, maximum eight minutes.
- After the time has elapsed, remove the excess mandelic acid (AHA) with a dry gauze and apply the post-peel solution. Leave on for one to four minutes.
- Remove the remains of the peeling and the post-peel solution with plenty of water.
Warning:
The Utsukusy MandelicAcid Peeling has a pH value of 2.8 - 3.0 and is intended for professional use only.
It may therefore only be used by professional users.
Contents of the mandelic acid peeling set
This set from Utsukusy contains all the products needed to perform a professional exfoliation.
It contains 60 ml of acid with a pH value of 2.8 to 3.0, a pre-peel disinfectant solution 150 ml and a post-peel neutralisation solution 150 ml.
The pre-peel disinfectant solution thoroughly cleanses and disinfects the skin and prepares it for the application of the peel solution.
The post-peel neutralisation solution has a strong moisturising and decongestant effect after the treatment. It neutralises the skin's pH value and brings it back into balance.
Good to know:
It is good to know that the effectiveness of fruit acid peels depends not only on the type of fruit acid used and the percentage of fruit acid used (e.g. fruit acid peel with 30% mandelic acid), but also on the pH value. The lower the pH value, the more effective and aggressive the peeling.
Frequently asked questions about chemical peels
Does a mandelic acid peel help with wrinkles?
Mandelic acid, a member of the alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) family, is known for its gentle but effective exfoliating ability. Exfoliating with this acid works by removing dead skin cells, which can result in finer, smoother skin. Another positive aspect is its ability to promote collagen production. Collagen is essential for skin elasticity and firmness, which means that exfoliating with mandelic acid can definitely have a place in anti-wrinkle skincare.
However, it is important to emphasise that the results of such a peel are more subtle, especially when compared to more invasive techniques such as microneedling. Microneedling creates fine micro-injuries in the skin, which triggers a more intense healing response, including increased collagen and elastin production. This method can have a more pronounced effect in reducing wrinkles and improving skin texture.
Now, although mandelic acid peels are a milder option, they have the benefit of causing less downtime and irritation. They are particularly suitable for more sensitive skin types or for those who prefer a gentler approach. It is also an excellent skin preparation before microneedling as it cleanses and prepares the skin for the absorption of active ingredients during the microneedling treatment.
It is also worth noting that the effectiveness of peels depends not only on the concentration and pH value, but also on the regularity of applications and subsequent skin care. Products from Utsukusy Cosmetics, for example, provide a professional kit for such a peel, including a pre-peel disinfectant solution and a post-peel neutralisation solution to achieve optimal results.
Does a mandelic acid peel make sense for pigmentation spots?
The acid extracted from almonds belongs to the alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), which are known for their effective action in the treatment of hyperpigmentation, such as skin spots and uneven skin tone.
When used regularly, this AHA helps to loosen the bonds between the dead skin cells that remain on the surface of the skin. By removing this layer, fresh, younger cells are exposed, resulting in a lightened appearance of dark spots and a more even skin tone.
Additionally, it stimulates skin renewal and increases the rate of cell turnover. This increase in the rate of cell turnover can help to fade pigmentation spots more quickly and prevent new discolouration from developing. It also favours improved absorption of lightening skin care products that are applied after peeling.
In addition, the acid extracted from bitter almonds is able to break up and reduce melanin accumulations.
Is mandelic acid in peels good for the skin?
Mandelic acid in scrubs can be very good for your skin. It promotes cell renewal, improves the complexion and reduces fine lines. This makes it an effective ingredient in cosmetic skin care. However, please note: an overdose can cause skin irritation. So always follow the instructions for use!
Is mandelic acid an AHA?
Yes, it is definitely an AHA (alpha hydroxy acid). It is extracted from bitter almonds and is known for its gentle but effective exfoliating effect. It helps to remove dead skin cells and promotes cell regeneration, improving the appearance of your skin. Therefore, mandelic acid peeling is a great choice.
How often should you use mandelic acid peeling?
We recommend that you initially use mandelic acid peeling every 14 days. Carefully observe how your skin reacts and watch out for potential signs of irritation or hypersensitivity, such as redness, burning or dryness. If your skin reacts positively to the peeling, you can increase the frequency of application to once a week. However, we strongly advise against using it too often, as this can lead to skin irritation. After all, a gentle and well-designed skincare regime is the key to healthy and radiant skin.
