Guru Skin Care Studio offers Dermalogica's new power peel

Once summer comes to an end, sun exposure lessens, making autumn the best time of year to kick off a series of chemical peels.

Kristin Akins, owner, aesthetician, healthy skin enthusiast, said Guru Skin Care Studio is "super excited to offer the latest and greatest innovation from trusted skin care brand Dermalogica. Say hello to Pro Power Peel -- a fully customizable chemical peel designed to reveal your healthiest skin ever! As a Dermalogica Expert, I was able to get my hands on this awesome new treatment a few weeks ago and I have never received more compliments on my skin. It is quite a gem and now that I have completed my training course and tried it on myself, I cannot wait to share with it you."

Akins offered the following helpful Q&A about Pro Power Peel:

Why is Pro Power Peel a great addition to your professional Skin Care routine?

Cell turnover slows dramatically as we age, from approximately 20 days in younger and middle-aged adults up to over 30 days in older adults. As this happens, it affects the skin's appearance and texture in a variety of ways. From fine lines and wrinkles to acne and hyper pigmentation. Chemical peels are one of the most effective ways to address these changes. Regular resurfacing is crucial to accelerate cell turnover and renewal rates plus it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin.

What sets Pro Power Peel above all the rest?

For optimal results, a peel should be strong enough to accelerate cell turnover but not so powerful as to inflame the skin. Due to the customizable nature of this treatment, I am able to professionally tailor each peel to my client's skin concerns. I recommend peels that are more frequent and less invasive rather than those that push the skin to the point of severe inflammation. The Pro Power Peel collection includes a suite of peel solutions containing high percentages of lactic acid, glycolic acid, TCA, and salicylic acid.

Who is a good candidate for Pro Power Peel?

Chemical peels are a wonderful option for treating a myriad of skin care concerns. Struggling with breakouts and pesky post inflammatory hyper pigmentation (the pink/red marks left on the skin while a breakout is healing)? The PowerClear solution targets blemishes and treats redness. Catch too many rays on the lake this summer and notice dark spots known as hyper pigmentation? The UltraBright Peel helps to even skin tone with 30 percent Lactic Acid. Worried about fine lines and wrinkles? Advanced Renewal & AGE reversal peels have you covered with 30 percent Glycolic Acid and 15 percent TCA to address advanced signs of aging. All of these strong and fast formulas can be mixed, layered, or used to spot treat problem areas. In short, if you are in the market for healthy skin, you are an excellent candidate for Pro Power Peel.

What can I expect after the Pro Power Peel?

Your skin may be a little red directly after the treatment which will dissipate with an hour or so. Not everyone will experience visible peeling/flaking of the skin 2-4 days post peel (not to worry, your skin is peeling even if it's not visible to the naked eye). If visible peeling occurs, it will only last a day or two. Personally, I had some minor flaking around my nose for a day two days after my Pro Power Peel. You will leave the treatment room with a kit full of all the essentials you will need to care for your skin post peel. Within days you will notice brighter, firmer, healthier skin.

Our motto at Guru Skin Care Studio is "Good Skin Care is Good Self Care" and we believe that everyone's skin is as unique as their personalities -- Dermalogica's Pro Power Peel fits perfectly with our core values.
