Frequently Asked Questions

1. What make TCA chemical peel Technology revolutionary?

Environ’s unique TCA chemical peel technology is the most intelligent, non-invasive, intelligent skin peeling system developed by Dr Des Fernandes world renowned Plastic Surgeon. Chemical peels are known to be one of the best ways to assist in improving many different skin conditions such as sun damage, ageing, acne and others.It is however important to remember that not all peels are created equal.

  • Slow healing
  • Post inflammatory scarring
  • Hyper/hypo pigmentation
  • Bacterial infections
  • Scarring

2. Environ TCA chemical peel unique technology

Environ have a variety of peeling systems, using acidic creams and gels instead of using acid formulations that are of low percentage and low pH. This results in an effective peeling treatment that is very gentle on the skin. The Cool Peels are designed to preserve as much of the epidermis as possible whilst simultaneously stimulating the fibroblasts in the dermis to increase the quantity of collagen in the dermis. Scientifically formulated, this technology feels cool and comfortable when applied to the skin. It also stimulates the fibroblasts in the dermis to increase the quantity of collagen, which helps to improve the appearance of ageing, and sun-damaged skin. Environ Cool Peel Technology is a fully customisable system that a trained skincare professional can control throughout the treatment. Peels can be very mild and gentle for first time users. This treatment can also be intensified to become a more advanced experience if the skin requires it.
