As the term 'superficial' suggests, the effect is aimed at the top layer of the skin. A superficial peel is wonderful for giving the skin radiance, fine pores and freshness and for removing minor skin impurities. Deeper exfoliation can improve blemishes, scars and wrinkles, and can be used to stimulate skin renewal in a more profound way. The product reaches the middle layer of the skin and parts of the upper dermis. This can be used to treat pigmentation spots and sun damage, among other things.
