Treatment information

Mesopeel

Well prepared for your appointment

We look forward to welcoming you to Fine LaserClinic soon for your Mesopeel treatment. Because good preparation contributes to a comfortable treatment and careful recovery, we have brought together the most important information for you.

You will receive this information automatically with your appointment. Please read the page through at a quiet moment; that way you know what you can do beforehand, what to expect after the treatment and when to get in touch with us. Personal advice from your practitioner always takes precedence.

Do other appointments or personal advice apply to you? Then we will confirm these by email. In that case, always follow the personal instructions in our email; these take precedence over the general information on this page.

Safety in brief

only use the recommended skin products, protect your skin daily with SPF 50+, avoid sun and sunbeds and do not pick at loose flakes or peeling skin. Let us know if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Get in touch with us if the skin reaction gets worse, the skin stays open, or you are unsure about the recovery.

For your treatment

To carry out the treatment safely and effectively, we ask you to take the following into account:

✓Prepare your skin well for the peel. This can be done with a peel booster. You may start using it two weeks before the treatment.
✓Well-prepared skin can enhance the intensity of the treatment and reduce recovery time.
✓Come to the appointment with clean skin. The treatment area must be free of make-up, body lotion, deodorant and other skin products.
✓Fine LaserClinic works with carefully selected skincare products. You will receive personal product advice from us that suits your skin, treatment and recovery.
✓Around the treatment period, only use the products we have recommended, unless discussed otherwise.

After your treatment

After the treatment the skin may feel warm, red, tight or stinging. Redness can last up to 48 hours.

In the days after the treatment the skin may become dry, feel tight or start to peel. This usually happens within 3 to 7 days after the treatment. Do not pick at loose flakes or bits of peeling skin. This can disrupt the recovery process and damage the skin. Loose flakes may be carefully trimmed off if necessary.

Pigment may first become darker after the treatment, because the peeling brings the pigmentation to the surface. Your body will then clear the pigment itself. After about 14 to 21 days the pigment usually becomes lighter. Under the peeling layer the skin may be slightly red. This is the new, delicate skin. Protect this skin extra well with SPF 50+.

Important here:

✓Do not pick at loose flakes or bits of peeling skin.
✓Do not scrub the skin while it is still recovering.
✓Do not use products with active ingredients such as acids, retinol or exfoliants, unless we have advised otherwise.
✓Do not wear make-up while the skin feels sensitive or open.
✓Avoid saunas, swimming pools, jacuzzis and intensive exercise while the skin is still red, warm or sensitive.
✓Protect the skin daily with SPF 50+.

Sun & safety during your treatment

Throughout the entire treatment, we advise you to be careful with sun exposure and sunbeds. After a peel the skin is temporarily more sensitive to UV radiation. Avoid direct sun exposure as much as possible and do not use a sunbed. If the skin is sun-tanned, we cannot carry out the treatment safely and the practitioner may decide to postpone it. Are you going outside anyway? Then use SPF 50+ every day. On sunny days we advise reapplying sunscreen every two hours. With prolonged sun exposure, sunscreen alone is not always enough, so make sure the treated area is also well protected or covered. A well-protected skin supports the recovery process and reduces the chance of pigment shifts or irritation.

Important to know

Every skin responds differently to treatments. The average number of treatments we mention on the website or during the intake consultation is therefore always an indication.

Factors such as skin type, skin condition, lifestyle, hormones, medication, sun exposure, product use and following advice can affect the final result. In some cases more treatments are needed than expected in advance.

The result achieved may also be temporary. Depending on your skin, maintenance treatments may be needed to keep the result looking good. How many maintenance treatments are needed, and how often this is desirable, differs per skin.

Because every skin and every body’s reaction is unique, we cannot guarantee an exact final result or the number of treatments required.

If different arrangements are made or advice is not followed, we will always confirm this by email.

Pregnancy

Are you pregnant or breastfeeding? Please let us know. The peels we use must not be applied during pregnancy and/or breastfeeding. In that case we will temporarily pause the treatment plan.
