The human skin is the outer covering of the body and is the largest organ of the integumentary system. The skin has up to seven layers of ectodermal tissue and guards the underlying muscles, bones, ligaments and internal organs.

Because it interfaces with the environment, skin plays an important immunity role in protecting the body against pathogens and excessive water loss.

At Medicentres, we do our best to take care of your skin in the best way possible. Here are some of the skin care treatments we offer for various skin types

Chemical Peels:

While there is a plethora of chemical peels available, each using different fruit acids and chemicals, our certified general practitioner will determine the most suitable one during consultation with you.

Glycolic Acid Peel

A glycolic peel made from alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) is a superficial peel that gives your skin a great boost and is fantastic before you attend a special occasion or if your skin has become dry and dull in texture. Glycolic peels detox your skin leaving it soft and bright not red and flaky, unlike stronger peels.

Lactic Acid peel

Lactic acid peels are superficial peels and also made from AHA (alpha hydroxy acids). They are very mild as they are derived from milk, with a very small chance of an allergic reaction happening. If one has sensitive skin or has never done a chemical peel before, a lactic acid peel is a wonderful choice.

Lactic acid peels exfoliate the surface of the skin, while deep cleaning the pores. They stimulate natural collagen production, even out the skin tone and improve hyper pigmentation of the skin. They can brighten and lighten the skin, and improve the appearance of fine lines.

Salicylic Acid Peel

  • A salicylic acid peel is a superficial peeling agent. Salicylic acid is a Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA)that is effective in treating oily, acne prone skin. It cleans out clogged pores and sloughs away dead skin cells that build up around your hair follicle and cause blemishes. ‌
  • The use of salicylic acid peels can improve the look and the texture of the skin. Salicylic acid peels can be done on the face, neck, back, shoulders, hands, knees and elbows. Men and women alike benefit from having this type of peel done.

TCA Peel

  • TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid) peel can function both as superficial peels and deeper peels depending on the level of concentration.
  • TCA peel is designed to remove the damaged surface layer of your skin and remove imperfections such as:
  • Reduces pigmentation.
  • Minimizes age spots, freckles, sun damage.
  • Softens fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Softens acne scarring.
  • Suitable for most skin types.

Targeted Melasma/Hyperpigmentation Peels

1.Triple Whitening Peel (tretinoin, hydrocortisone and hydroquinone)

2.Meline

These peels work on superficial as well as deeper skin layers, in particular get to the root of the problem by blocking the production of the pigment melanin. Subsequently undesired hyperpigmentation and melasma can be reduced with a formidable effect. While the initial procedure takes place under medical supervision, the maintenance cream can be applied at home.

Dermapen Microneedling:

Is a procedure which involves pricking the skin with fractional sterilized needles using a dermapen. A serum is applied to the skin simultaneously. The small wounds cause your body to make more collagen and elastin to lift, tighten, and rejuvenate your skin. Local anesthetic is applied before the procedure and the punctures are only surface-level, so the pain is minimal.

Benefits of Microneedling

  • Enhances texture of skin
  • Stimulates collagen production
  • Can help reduce scars and hyperpigmentation
