Dr denese new york calamider secret

You're referring to Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare's alpha beta peel, also known as the "New York City Peel" or "Calming Peel"!

The alpha beta peel is a popular, at-home peel that combines the benefits of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. Here's what makes it special:

Key ingredients:

  1. Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs): Derived from fruits, AHAs help break down the "glue" that holds dead skin cells together, revealing smoother, brighter skin.
  2. Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA): A gentle, oil-soluble acid that penetrates deep into pores to unclog and reduce their appearance.
  3. Salicylic Acid: A beta hydroxy acid that helps to exfoliate and reduce inflammation.

Benefits:

  1. Exfoliates and brightens the skin
  2. Unclogs pores and reduces their appearance
  3. Fades fine lines and wrinkles
  4. Improves skin texture and tone
  5. Reduces acne and hyperpigmentation

How to use:

  1. Cleanse your face and apply a thin layer of the peel to the skin.
  2. Leave it on for 5-7 minutes, or until it starts to sting or feel warm.
  3. Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry.
  4. Follow up with your usual skincare routine.

Tips and precautions:

  1. Start with a lower concentration (around 10-15%) and gradually increase as your skin becomes more tolerant.
  2. Avoid using the peel on sensitive areas, such as the skin around your eyes, mouth, or nose.
  3. If you have rosacea, eczema, or other skin conditions, consult with a dermatologist before using the peel.
  4. Be patient, as it may take a few uses to see noticeable results.

Remember to always follow the instructions provided with the product and patch test a small area of your skin before using the peel to ensure you don't have any adverse reactions.
