Superficial depigmenting peel / facial photoaging treatment

Description

INNO-EXFO Lightening 15g by Innoaesthetics is a professional superficial depigmenting chemical peel cream formulated for controlled microexfoliation. It combines Vitamin A (retinoid) with lactic acid, salicylic acid, arbutin, kojic acid, phytic acid and Smart GPS technology to provide a powerful synergistic action on moderate photoaging, fine lines and mild epidermal hyperpigmentation. The treatment targets superficial melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, pigmented acne scars and uneven skin tone, while also helping inflammatory acne and dermal-epidermal restructuring. It is intended strictly for professional use and applied as a leave-on peel according to a specific in-clinic protocol.

Usage

  • Cleanse the skin with an appropriate pre-peel cleanser from the Innoaesthetics range (e.g. Soft Cleanser or Deep Cleanser).
  • Degrease the skin using an INNO-EXFO degreasing solution.
  • Measure approximately 3 g of INNO-EXFO Lightening cream per session and apply an even layer over the treatment area using a fan brush or spatula, avoiding mucous membranes and eyes.
  • A second layer may be applied on more pigmented or resistant areas according to professional judgment.
  • Leave on for a variable exposure time, typically 15 minutes up to about 2 hours (or per local protocol, sometimes up to several hours) depending on skin phototype, indication and tolerance.
  • Patients usually experience mild to moderate tingling or warming during exposure.
  • After the prescribed exposure time, remove or rinse the product with cool or lukewarm water and sponges as indicated in the protocol, and gently pat dry.
  • Apply a post-peel repairing cream (e.g. INNO-DERMA Skin Repair) and high SPF broad-spectrum sunscreen.
  • Minimum recommended number of sessions is 3, spaced according to professional protocol (commonly every 3–4 weeks).
  • Advise the patient to avoid direct sun exposure and strictly use SPF 50+ sunscreen daily after the procedure.
  • Instruct patients not to pick or forcibly remove peeling skin and to use gentle, hydrating skincare during recovery.
  • Home use, self-application or unsupervised use is not recommended and may be unsafe.
