HERBAL AKTIV PEEL - NEW SKIN IN 5 DAYS
|
Herbs have been used for thousands of years in every part of the world to improve people's health and well-being. Knowledge has accumulated through experimentation and observation and been passed from generation to generation. Ancient records describe beneficial effects of herbs, both internally and when applied topically to the skin. Modern scientific have confirmed much of this traditional wisdom.
In 1958 careful study of texts on herbalism led to the development of an herbal skin treatment that showed promising results for a variety of skin conditions.
Initial tests were followed by years of practical experimentation refinement of the formulation and improvement of the treatment protocol. |
 |
Tested and proven in clinical trials, this treatment is today known as 'Herbal Aktiv Peel' by Alex Cosmetic, and is offered in leading skin clinics around the world.

What is the process?
|
During treatment your skin is massaged with the mixture of herbs and Herbal Skin Peel Lotion. It will appear ilushed; the sensation is similar to mild sunburn. On touching the skin you'll feel tiny herb particles.
When you leave the clinic your skin will look good great; treatment will not interfere with your business or social obligations for the next two or three days.
During this time the herbs will gradually release their natural active substances such as vitamins, minerals, enzymes, anti-oxidants and trace elements into the skin. Home care products are applied morning and night as per instruction.

On day three or four your skin inlay starts to peel. This stage lasts for 24 hours. Now you are ready to visit your skin clinic for the Post Treatment. Any remnants of dead skin are removed and your new skin receives a refreshing vitamin mask. The treating therapist will also take photographs to illustrate the result of your skin peel.
Your new skin will appear visibly improved, finer in texture, clearer and younger. Following Post Treatment, please always apply sun protection when outdoors, and refrain from sunbathing for at least four weeks after treatment.
If required Herbal Aktiv Peel treatments can be repeated every four weeks.
Good lifestyle choices and the regular use of good quality skin care products will prolong the results of your Herbal Aktiv Peel. Preventive treatments at 6- 12 monthly intervals are recommended to maintain your youthful appearance.
Each individual skin will peel at different levels: your skin may or may not visibly peel. There are factors which can affect the amount of skin peeling i.e. harsh skin care containing acids, illness, smoking etc. Your skin care therapist will advise you how to achieve the best possible result from your Herbal Aktiv Skin Peel. |
How Deep Does It Go?
|
The fact that the epidermis remains completely undamaged during the massage, and the fact that the skin peels only 3 or 4 days after the actual treatment, shows that Herbal Aktiv Peel is an 'epidermal' peel. It doesn't go deep at all, and is therefore safer. However, photographs show surprising outcomes. Series of 3 or 4 treatments have even improved the appearance of stretch marks significantly.
There is another fundamental difference between chemical acids and Herbal Aktiv Skin Peel. Removal of one of more layers with acids will leave the skin vulnerable to external influences, with infection an ever present threat.
With 'Herbal Aktiv Peel', the old skin stays in place whilst the new skin regenerates. The developing new skin is protected until it is ready to face the environment without ill effects. Our photo shows the healthy appearance of the new skin immediately following the Herbal Aktiv Skin Peel.
We are instructed NEVER to force off the old skin prematurely. Nature will cause it to detach as soon as the new skin is ready.
The uniqueness of Herbal Aktiv Skin Peel is that it provides an effective, progressive and thorough exfoliation of dead cells that contribute to the appearance of dull and ageing skin.
This process is further supported by the introduction of a unique blend of nutrient rich herbs that provide anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant and regenerating benefits. These protect, strengthen and support the integrity of the skin. They improve its clarity and appearance, and help us reach our ultimate objective - a successful result of healthy looking skin.
It is proven fact that only a small percentage of ingredients contained in a topically applied cosmetic product will actually be available to the skin. Tests conducted in Germany using alpha-tocopherol in different emulsion types have shown that uptake by the skin varies between 4% to a maximum of 11%.
By contrast, ingredients contained in the herbs massaged into the skin are being released over an extended period of time and are therefore available to the skin for much longer.

It's like a 'time-release' concentrated supply which goes some way to explain the superior outcome of the Herbal Aktiv Skin Peel.
Skin peeling or resurfacing is an important and time - proven procedure that supports cell renewal, regeneration and indeed facilitates better penetration of active topical substances into the skin.
