When choosing physical or chemical exfoliation as a means of youth and beauty, many people think about how often they can do facial peeling. This is a complex and delicate question, the answer to which will be individual for each woman. The frequency of peeling procedures depends not only on the time of year, but also on the depth of exposure of the skin to acidic compounds or abrasive materials, on the age and reaction of the skin to exfoliation. Knowing what the breaks should be between the most popular peeling procedures, and what the intervals between courses should be, is important in order to obtain the expected aesthetic effect, and not complications.
The importance of interval between peels
Exfoliation is one of those beauty procedures that helps a woman prolong her youth by correcting age-related defects in appearance, but at the same time it requires a clear cyclical implementation. Patiently maintaining certain intervals between peels is also important, as is choosing the right cleansing, following the procedure protocol and the stages of post-peel skin care.
The process of mechanical, hardware or chemical cleansing of the face involves the artificial destruction of the keratinized epidermal layer and stimulation of regeneration inherent to the skin. A physical or acidic agent, in contact with the middle or deep layers of the dermis, causes serious changes in cellular structures. In an effort to replenish the protective barrier damaged by peeling, the skin begins to intensively produce collagen and elastin fibers, cell division accelerates, the supply of micronutrients to them, and blood circulation is normalized. The dead epidermis is replaced by a young and tender one. Along with scales and crusts, peeling removes facial and age wrinkles, age spots, redness, enlarged pores are cleaned and narrowed, scars become invisible, and many dermatological diseases, such as rosacea and acne, disappear.
Provoked chemical or thermal burns and grinding with fine abrasives cause significant damage to the skin. For women, peeling is a rejuvenation and an effective way to get rid of aesthetic defects, but for the skin it is a colossal stress. Even if the course of facial cleansing was performed at home, and not in cosmetology, give your skin a rest. Many peelings require at least 3 months for the epidermis to fully recover after the procedures, so getting carried away with exfoliation is strictly prohibited.
The interval between peels is not a universal amount of time. The duration of the intervals depends on many factors. First of all, it depends on the type of exfoliation and the depth of exposure of the skin to acidic compounds and abrasive particles. The deeper the peeling, the longer the skin will heal.
How long you need to take a break between peels depends on:
the depth of penetration of chemical compounds, laser beams and other agents that disrupt the upper layer of the epidermis. Deep peelings require the longest rehabilitation after procedures, scrubbing at home – minimal;
woman's age. Young skin does not require frequent care, unlike aging skin, which requires regular support;
reasons for aesthetic defects. Anti-aging exfoliation needs to be repeated much more often than, for example, procedures to reduce acne or signs of photoaging;
skin type. Dry facial skin requires careful treatment and rare exercise; oily or combination skin, on the contrary, needs constant normalization of the sebaceous glands.
Frequency of physical peelings
Physical facial peels are a broad concept. They combine mechanical and hardware methods of skin renewal, which are performed both in the salon and at home. During physical exfoliation, dead epidermis is polished using small abrasive elements, which include particles of natural scrubs (ground coffee beans and fruit seeds, sea salt), diamond dust or coral chips, water and oxygen molecules supplied to the skin under high pressure during gas-liquid peeling . Mechanical cleansing also includes exfoliating the skin with soft brushes and sponges, liquid nitrogen (cryotherapy), ultrasound and a laser beam (laser peeling or resurfacing).
For the most part, physical facial peeling in the salon and at home is a gentle superficial exfoliation, aimed more at correcting external defects and stimulating metabolism than at serious rejuvenation. In addition to laser exfoliation, which is an effective remedy against wrinkles and other age-related skin changes. Let's figure out how often to do facial peeling in the case of specific mechanical and hardware techniques.
- Brossage. This superficial exfoliation involves hardware exfoliation of the skin with soft massage brushes and elastic sponge attachments. Brossage carefully removes dead epidermis and stimulates blood flow to the deep layers of the dermis, improving their nutrition. As a light skin renewal or to prepare it for more serious peelings, brossage is recommended to be performed at any time of the year in a course of 8-10 procedures.
The break between procedures is 1-2 weeks (depending on the sensitivity of the skin), the interval between courses is at least 3 months.
- Scrubbing. Superficial cleansing of the skin with organic scrubs with natural particles can be done both in salons by professional hands and at home. Scrubbing compositions contain crushed coffee beans, fruit seeds, bodyaga, sugar, sea salt or coral dust. A course of mechanical peeling with scrubs consists of 6-8 procedures.
Those with oily and combination skin can take a short break between procedures – 7 days. Dry skin is more damaged, thins out faster and takes longer to recover; for it, the interval between scrubbing sessions is 2 weeks. The interval between peeling courses is the same for all skin types - 3 months.
- Ultrasonic peeling. Facial cleansing using high-frequency ultrasonic waves is one of the safest and most gentle superficial peeling techniques. The acoustic wave breaks down the old epithelial cells - as a result of the procedure, the complexion is evened out and the skin takes on a refreshed appearance. Ultrasonic exfoliation is rarely carried out as an independent course; it mainly serves as preparation for other types of peeling, for example, chemical peeling.
For oily, combination and aging skin, 4 to 8 ultrasound procedures are required once a week. For dry and sensitive – 1-2 manipulations per month. The break between courses is at least 3 months.
- Gas-liquid peeling. This physical exfoliation is performed only in a beauty salon using expensive equipment. Mechanical exfoliation of the stratum corneum of the epidermis is performed without direct contact with the skin using a cold water jet enriched with carbon dioxide and oxygen. Sometimes antiseptic drugs can be added to the peeling composition (for example, to treat acne or acne). A water jet at supersonic speed destroys the old epithelium and improves blood supply to the deep layers. As a result of the peeling course, skin unevenness, wrinkles and scars are smoothed out, pigment spots are lightened, and inflammation goes away.
The course of gas-liquid peeling includes from 4 to 6 sessions with a frequency of 1 week. The interval between courses is 3 months.
- Microcrystalline dermabrasion. This peeling is of the medium-deep type. During the hardware procedure, dead epidermis on the entire face or only problem areas is polished using special diamond-coated cosmetic attachments. Diamond brushes help reduce the network of wrinkles, improve complexion, remove pigmentation, scars and scars. Sometimes microdermabrasion is performed using application anesthesia, which means that the skin is seriously injured and requires a long time to heal.
A course of microcrystalline dermabrasion includes 4 to 6 peeling sessions. Manipulation can be performed no more than once every 10-14 days. The interval between courses is from 3 months to six months (depending on the type and reaction of the skin).
- Laser peeling or resurfacing. Another medium-deep peeling for facial skin, designed to solve anti-aging problems, eliminate the consequences of dermatological diseases or injuries. The laser beam produces a controlled thermal burn on the skin, thereby stimulating the production of “fibers of youth” - collagen and elastin. Laser peeling is one of the effective ways to rejuvenate aging skin and combat old scars or scars.
The number of procedures in a laser peeling course is from 6 to 8. The break between sessions is at least 1 week. The interval between courses is about 4 months.
The average for all physical peelings (salon and home) are two time parameters: the interval between mechanical cleansing procedures should be at least a week, and the break between courses should be at least 3 months.
Frequency of chemical peels
Many women prefer chemical exfoliation due to the variety of its types, purpose and speed of solving aesthetic problems. Acid and enzyme compositions of the required concentration allow you to exfoliate the skin at a certain depth, thereby correcting not only minor defects in appearance (for example, facial folds or acne), but also reducing serious age-related changes, hyperpigmentation and rosacea. Let's find out how often to do chemical peeling of the face in the case of superficial, medium and deep techniques.
- Superficial peeling. Such acid or enzyme exfoliation “dissolves” only the top layer of the epidermis. Most often, surface manipulations are performed using fruit, glycolic and lactic acids, as well as enzymes and peptides. The purpose of superficial peelings is to combat mimic and first age-related skin changes and signs of photoaging.
A course of superficial peelings consists of 5-8 sessions, with a mandatory break between them of 10 to 14 days. The interval between courses is 4-6 months.
- Medium peeling. In addition to correcting minor imperfections in appearance, mid-face cleansing helps prolong youth, get rid of hyperpigmentation, bumpiness after acne, and inflammatory processes. For medium peels, more concentrated acid preparations are used, which are washed off with neutralizers. This type of exfoliation is dangerous to perform at home; it is better to trust a professional. As a result of medium peels, acid molecules can penetrate to the granular layer of the dermis, so chemical burns must be controlled. Frequent use of TCA peels, retinoic peels, azelaic, phytin, pyruvic and their analogues leads to complications.
It is necessary that the course of medium peels consist of no more than 3-4 sessions with a break of 2 weeks. Such exfoliation is carried out only once a year in autumn or winter.
- Deep peeling. This is a serious exfoliation that can only be performed in a beauty salon. The destruction of the entire layer of the epidermis and the initial layer of the dermis occurs with the help of toxic phenolic acid. Deep peeling is only suitable for mature skin or skin with scars and scars.
A course of deep phenol peeling consists of 1 procedure, which must be repeated no more than once a year and only in the autumn-winter season. Only 3 sessions of deep exfoliation are allowed in your entire life.
Only a professional cosmetologist can choose the correct frequency of peelings for a woman. After all, rare exfoliation will not bring results, and frequent exfoliation is dangerous with the risk of side effects.
Hollywood facial cleansing is a completely new way of cleansing the skin of dead skin particles using a unique cosmetic product that contains phytic acid. This type of peeling has long been popular among domestic and foreign pop stars, since this particular method allows you to gently cleanse the surface layers of the skin and also achieve amazing results.

Performing the procedure in a salon setting
Hollywood peeling is a gentle exfoliation of dead skin cells using a unique preparation based on a calcium chloride solution. This procedure is in demand by women aged 30 to 40 years. At a younger age, it can be offered as an effective remedy against acne and acne.
Beauty begins with complete removal of makeup, after which a solution consisting of several types of acids is applied to cleansed skin. The cosmetic product, entering into a chemical interaction with the dried salt, rolls off under pressure and captures dead skin particles.
After this, a mask containing phytic acid is applied to the patient’s skin. The girl or woman goes home with her and a day later washes off the cosmetic product using a special gel. After 24 hours, the skin may feel dry and tight - this is the beginning of the cleansing process. After about three days, the exfoliation of dead particles begins, and after a week you can see an amazing result - the skin becomes smooth and elastic, and also acquires a healthy color.

And the solution itself with a concentration of 5-10%. To perform the procedure for the first time, it is advisable to use a 5 percent solution. If this is not available, you can dilute it with 10% normal saline solution or water. For dry, normal or combination skin, it is advisable to constantly use a 5% solution (calcium chloride). The price of this drug is relatively low, and it can be purchased at any pharmacy. For oily skin, you should purchase a product with a higher concentration of the main active ingredient.
Preparation stage in the salon
Hollywood facial cleansing in a salon setting begins with an initial consultation with a cosmetologist. During this process, a specialist will determine your skin type and the composition of the cosmetic product, and will also recommend the number of procedures necessary to achieve an ideal result.
In order for Hollywood peeling to give the desired result, it is necessary to properly prepare the stratum corneum. For this purpose, a specialized preparation is regularly applied to the skin, the main component of which is. As a rule, one week of using a cosmetic preparation is enough to achieve the corresponding goal. However, in some cases - if there is strong pigmentation, for example, it may take much longer (about three weeks).
The effectiveness of the salon procedure is clearly visible in photographs depicting facial peeling (before and after). Reviews from patients and specialists indicate that the greatest effectiveness is achieved when using mandelic acid, which is used to treat the skin before the actual salon cleansing procedure.
Homemade facial peeling with calcium chloride
As such, no special preparatory procedures are required to perform facial cleansing at home. The only thing worth doing is an allergy test.

- A small amount of the drug is applied to the face using a cotton pad. In this case, it is necessary to avoid getting the solution on the area around the eyes.
- Once the first layer has dried, apply the solution a second time.
- So, layer by layer, the entire contents of the ampoule are applied. As a rule, this is 4-5 times application of the drug.
- As soon as the last layer has dried, you need to thoroughly wash your hands with baby soap and use foam to massage your face. Movements are performed strictly along massage lines. This can be done with your fingers or using sanitary napkins.
- As a result of the interaction of calcium chloride with an alkaline environment (baby soap), flakes are formed that capture dead skin particles.
- The massage should be performed until the formation of pellets completely stops. If necessary, you can re-soap your hands.
After this, the remaining peeling should be washed off with warm water and a nourishing mask should be applied (chamomile or oatmeal are ideal for these purposes). Then remove the mask and apply a nourishing or moisturizing cream to cleansed skin.

When caring for facial skin, the result depends not only on the correctness of the selected procedure and its professional implementation. The frequency of exposure plays an important role. There are a number of factors that influence whether how often to do a chemical peel. There are optimal general recommendations, but in most cases, the number of procedures and the interval between them is determined by the cosmetologist, based on the individual characteristics of the patient’s epidermis.
How often should I do a chemical facial peel?
Factors influencing the frequency of procedures
There are a number of indicators that increase or decrease the need for cleaning:
- age factor. The older the patient, the more often chemical cleanings have to be performed. At a young age, cells only need a boost, which activates their regenerative or metabolic functions. Mature skin tissues most often work on the residual effects of peeling and require supporting procedures;
- thickness of the stratum corneum. Sometimes there are such advanced cases that after the first course of cleansing it is not possible to achieve the expected effect;
- The type of epidermis also affects how often to do a chemical peel. Thin and sensitive skin can lose a number of functions with frequent cleansing and rejuvenating procedures. Before starting the course, it is recommended to check the thickness of the epidermis with a special ultrasound-based device;
- the type of problem that needs to be solved. If sessions are carried out with the aim of improving the general condition of the epidermis or getting rid of acne or comedones, one or two manipulations may be enough. If it is necessary to smooth out wrinkles, it is necessary to conduct at least five sessions of superficial and a full course of medium peeling. It is most difficult to remove scars using chemical procedures, so to neutralize such manifestations it is necessary to complete a course and a number of additional measures;
- The main influence on how often to do a chemical peel is the type of procedure. The deeper the impact, the less often there is a need for cleaning;
- components used. There are chemical ingredients that have a deep effect, but are gentle. Conversely, there are surface-acting drugs that literally burn out the stratum corneum without penetrating deep into the tissue.
Frequency of superficial peeling
On average, superficial chemical peeling involves 4-10 procedures with an interval of 1.5-2 weeks. This indicator may vary slightly from the norm depending on the type of components used.
Fruit peeling. The main factor influencing how often to perform a fruit acid chemical peel is the type of main ingredient. Lactic and mandelic acids have the mildest effect, so these cleaning options can be used more often. Peeling based on citric acid, wine and apple cider vinegar causes more negative consequences and is carried out much less frequently. The average course duration is from 5 to 15 sessions with an interval sufficient for complete tissue restoration. To maintain the effect, it is recommended to carry out one manipulation per quarter.
Enzyme peeling. This procedure does not damage the integrity of the skin, so it can be performed according to indications, depending on the type of epidermis. For normal and dry skin, one manipulation per week is sufficient; for oily skin, the number can be increased to two.
In most cases, the effect of peptides is enhanced by the addition of fruit acids, so the interval between sessions should be from 1 to 2 weeks. To obtain a lasting and pronounced result, it is necessary to carry out 6-10 procedures.
Peeling based on biological components. This includes compositions with bodyaga, placenta and bamboo extract, and other biologically active substances. Depending on the component, the interval between sessions should be from five to ten days. Procedures are most often carried out at home if there are clear indications.
Peels based on chemical compounds and medications. This group includes cleaning with mixtures of hydrogen peroxide, calcium chloride, and alcohols. The impact is highly intense, so six procedures with an interval of three months are sufficient. Otherwise, thinning of the epidermis, its protective layer, and destruction of living cells is possible.
Jessner peeling. Cleaning preparations contain intense acids. The course begins with gentle sessions, gradually increasing the strength of the impact. A full course involves at least six procedures with an interval of 1-1.5 months.
Asian superficial peeling roller. The effect on the skin is so mild that the preparations can be used every day. In salons, this care option is offered only as preparation for deeper cleansing.
Hollywood, phytin peeling. The type of problem and individual characteristics of the epidermis have a direct impact on how often to do chemical peeling based on phytic acid. The minimum number of procedures is 3, the maximum is 8.
It can have a superficial and medial effect. If the main component is used incorrectly, the substance may have a toxic effect on tissue, so the number of procedures must be reduced to a minimum. The maximum number of sessions is 6 per course, the interval between manipulations is at least two weeks.
Frequency of mid-peeling
The optimal number of mid-impact peeling procedures is determined by a cosmetologist. It is recommended to conduct sessions no more than 3-4 times per course. The number of courses should not exceed one per year.
TCA peeling. Due to the complexity and aggressiveness of the procedure, pre-peel preparation and skin care after chemical intervention, it is difficult to unequivocally answer the question of how often to do chemical peeling based on trichloroacetic acid. In some cases, experts recommend focusing on one procedure and several additional manipulations that can maintain the effect of the impact. In difficult cases, when there are no indications for deep peeling, and other methods do not give the desired effect, the session may be repeated.
Yellow, retinoic peeling. It has a number of distinctive features in terms of scheduling procedures. The standard option includes 4 sessions. A two-week break should be taken between the first and second manipulations. Subsequently, it increases to one month. After this, in order to prevent skin problems, yellow peeling is recommended once a quarter. If we are talking about classic retinoic peeling, in which the composition is kept on the surface of the face for several hours, only one manipulation is performed, which can be repeated after a couple of months, and then act at the discretion of the cosmetologist.
ABR peeling. It stands out from other average procedures due to its softer effect. The frequency of its implementation does not depend on the age or type of epidermis. Sessions can be performed to improve the overall condition of the skin. The number of procedures is set by a specialist and adjusted during the course depending on the manifestation of a positive result. On average, 5-8 sessions are prescribed with a time interval of at least two weeks.
Frequency of deep peeling
Typically, when answering patients’ questions about how often to do deep chemical peeling, experts say that the procedure can be repeated every year. In fact, another definition would be more accurate: phenol deep peeling can be done no more than three times in a lifetime, with a minimum interval of one year.
It is important to understand that the procedure is carried out using a toxic component and causes a number of unpleasant sensations and expected negative consequences that are difficult to tolerate by the body. This is the most radical version of chemical effects on the skin, which is carried out when it is impossible to improve the condition of the skin by other methods.
If you overuse deep chemical peels, you can kill the ability of living cells to multiply quickly, reduce cellular immunity, destroy healthy tissue and trigger the formation of connective tissue scars.
Facial care includes the use of special cosmetics to cleanse and soften the skin. But this is not enough. To make your face look fresh and youthful, it needs to be cleansed of dead cells. They handle this well. But this procedure, if repeated frequently, can harm the skin. How often should I do it? We will talk about this in the article.
How peelings work
Dead cells are needed to protect the skin, but in small quantities. Their excess gives the face a dull color, roughness, and unevenness.
Peels are designed to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells.
The frequency of peeling depends on:
- depending on skin type;
- on health status;
- depending on the time of year;
- depending on the type of peeling itself.
The more aggressive the peeling effect, the less often it can be done.
There are different types of peeling:
Mechanical. Cleansing occurs using scrubs and abrasive particles. Such peelings are often done.
Hardware. Includes three types:
- Dermabrasion. This is done using devices with grinding attachments (for example,).
- . Exfoliation occurs due to exposure to a laser beam.
- Hardware technique for applying ultrasound to the skin.
For home peeling, both special cosmetics and folk recipes are used. The frequency of use of such peels depends on the skin type:
- oily - 1-2 times a week;
- normal and combined - once a week;
- dry and sensitive - once every two weeks.
You should always monitor your skin's reaction to ensure there is no feeling of dryness, irritation or hypersensitivity.
