What Are Chemical Peels with ZO® 3-Step Peel?

The ZO® 3-Step Peel™ is a highly effective chemical peel designed to exfoliate the skin and promote the growth of healthy new cells. This peel combines powerful ingredients like salicylic, lactic, and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) with retinol cream to address various skin concerns. Suitable for all skin types and colors, the ZO® 3-Step Peel™ targets pigmentation, melasma, enlarged pores, uneven texture, dullness, and acne. Deeply penetrating the epidermis and upper dermis stimulates collagen production and restores moisture balance, resulting in a rejuvenated appearance.

How Do Chemical Peels withZO® 3-Step Peel Work?

The ZO® 3-Step Peel™ is a comprehensive chemical peel treatment involving three key steps. First, a blend of salicylic, lactic, and TCA acids exfoliates the skin to remove the damaged outer layers. Next, a retinol cream is applied to enhance cellular turnover and collagen production. Finally, a calming cream is used to reduce inflammation and restore hydration. This multi-step process ensures a deep, effective peel that revitalizes the skin from within. Patients typically experience mild to moderate burning for a few minutes, followed by peeling and redness for 4-5 days, revealing fresh and glowing skin beneath.
