Stimulator Peels
Our Stimulator Peels from ZO Skin Health are advanced chemical peel treatments that combine a blend of Alpha Hydroxy Acids to deeply exfoliate and renew the skin. Glycolic, lactic, and citric acids work in combination to stimulate cellular turnover, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and improve overall skin tone, texture and clarity.
Despite the impressive results, this advanced formulation is gentle enough for all skin types and requires no downtime. You’ll see visible results after just one peel, while a series of treatments will give you optimal results: smoother texture, more even tone, and a brightening boost!
Protocol
Step 1: Cleanse
Offects Gentle Cleanser is applied to remove makeup and any impurities from the skin. Offects Gentle Cleanser hydrates and rejuvenates without disrupting the moisture barrier. Panthenol and allantoin soothe, repair and restore skin as well as cleans away dead skin cells to support cellular renewal. This cleanser is massaged onto damp skin for at least one minute and is then removed with warm water and towels.
Step 2: Exfoliate
ZO Exfoliating Polish is lightly massaged onto the entire face for one minute. The ultra-fine magnesium crystals exfoliate dead skin cells and increase epidermal turnover for a cleaner, smoother, more even-toned complexion. Vitamins A, C, E and C-Esters provide antioxidant benefits to help maintain skin barrier function.
Step 3: Activate
Exfoliating Polish Activator is applied to enhance the exfoliation and activity. As the Polish is activated, you will experience the crystals turning from rough to smooth on the face. This is massaged over the entire face until no rough crystals remain. A mild warming sensation may occur.
Step 4: Prep, Peel & Neutralize
Ossential Peel Prep is applied evenly to the entire face. Ossential Stimulator Peel solution is then applied directly to the entire face as well. Individuals may feel a tingling sensation. The peel solution is applied in stages, depending on patient’s tolerance level. After 2-3 passes of the peel, it will then be neutralized.
Ossential Peel Neutralizer is applied to the entire area that was treated with the peel. The patient will experience a warming sensation as the Ossential Peel Neutralizer returns the skin to its natural pH. This sensation will last up to 10 seconds and then dissipate very quickly. Once the peel is completely neutralized, it is removed by cleansing with the ZO Gentle Cleanser.
Step 5: Calm & Nourish
ZO Daily Power Defence is applied to the face which is a powerful antioxidant serum designed to improve the appearance of lines + wrinkles and promote overall skin health. It provides antioxidant protection to combat the appearance of free radical damage and helps tighten, firm the skin and promotes skin health. This formulation provides the skin anti-irritant and anti- inflammatory extracts as well as enzyme derivatives which help skin cells to repair DNA damage from environmental factors such as UVA/UVB rays, smoke and pollution.
Step 6: Replenish
ZO Growth Factor Serum is applied evenly to the face to replenish the skin. This serum contains two lipopeptides which support collagen production for increased skin density. A combination of retinol and amino acids stimulates cellular function, reduces collagen degradation and restores elasticity.
Step 7: Protect
1-2 pumps of ZO Sunscreen & Primer SPF 30 is applied to the face and neck. This formulation provides the skin with broad spectrum sun protection. ZO Sunscreen & Primer SPF 30 contains natural melanin which allows it to be the strongest antioxidant available. This sunscreen makes an excellent make-up primer for a smooth, flawless application of mineral powder or foundation.
