The melanage minipeel represents a new generation of chemical peels. It uses weak acids, combined with potent non-acidic ingredients that do not burn, wound or injure the skin. For this reason, melanage
minipeel can be used to treat patients with darker complexions. While some patients may feel a mild
tingling sensation from the peeling solution, the treatment is virtually painless.
How does it work?
Melanage minipeel Solution is applied during an in-offce visit. The solution is removed by the patient after a required length of time depending on his or her skin type. Patients leave the office with this solution on their face. Patients are responsible for adhering to an easy-to-follow, but strict, at-home regimen involving the application of several melanage products following removal of the minipeel Solution.
What results can I expect?
Results will vary but generally patients will see an improvement in the appearance of their skin. Although most patients experience peeling, not every patient will notice this. If you do not see actual peeling, please know that you are still receiving all the benefits of the melanage minipeel. Proper skin evaluation by your doctor prior to your peel is important and will help predict the outcome of your peel.
How does the Minipeel compare to the standard Melanage Ultra peel?
There is considerably less redness and peeling than the standard melanage. The minipeel is designed to be administered in a series of 3+ in-office treatments, every 4-6 weeks, for enhanced skin brightening.
