AGING | STUBBORN PIGMENTATION | PIGMENT CORRECTION
The Alchemy Peel
"I dissolve what shadows. I rebuild what holds."
Description
At 1.0 pH, Alchemy reaches deeper than any other peel in the line. TCA precipitates protein, causing controlled coagulation that triggers neocollagenesis as the skin renews. This is medium-depth chemistry applied with intention, designed for clients who have moved through superficial peels and are ready for visible transformation.
Not a first-time peel. Requires 4 to 6 weeks of pre-conditioning, longer for Fitzpatrick IV through VI. Patch test before first use on melanin-rich skin. For melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, photoaged skin, lax skin and wrinkles. The endpoint is the work. The preparation is what protects the outcome.
Hero Ingredients
Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) Protein-precipitating agent. Causes coagulation and denaturation of epidermal and dermal proteins. Self-neutralizing. Medium-depth. Elevated PIH risk in Fitz IV through VI.
Lactic Acid Surface refinement and hydration. Mid-sized AHA, anti-inflammatory.
Kojic Acid Tyrosinase inhibitor for pigmentation. Slow, cumulative action.
Azelaic Acid Tyrosinase inhibitor with anti-inflammatory properties. Particularly valuable in melasma, PIH, and rosacea-associated acne.
How To Use
Cleanse with Halo Milk Cleanse. Degrease with Mystic Mandelic 5%. Protect with Barrier Balm. Apply with controlled, conservative technique. Avoid aggressive layering. Build progressively across treatments. Stop before visible frosting. For Fitz IV through VI, complete a 6-week melanin-inhibitor pre-conditioning protocol minimum. Self-neutralizing. Do not interrupt expected frosting unless skin response is excessive.
Curated For
Moderate to advanced hyperpigmentation. Properly prepped and stable melasma. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Uneven tone with deep pigment irregularities. Photoaged skin. Lax skin, fine lines, and wrinkles. Clients with established peel tolerance and complete pre-conditioning.
