MEDIDERMA® SALIPEEL DS

SALIPEEL DS is a professional-grade chemical peel formulated with 30% salicylic acid in a macrogol (polyethylene glycol) base, designed specifically for the treatment of acne, hyperkeratotic conditions, and seborrheic skin in sensitive or high phototype patients. Its unique formulation offers the potency of salicylic acid while minimizing irritation, making it suitable for even the most delicate skin types.

This deep exfoliating solution helps clear clogged pores, regulate sebum production, and reduce inflammation, making it ideal for managing active acne, post-acne scarring, and thickened skin conditions. The use of macrogol as a delivery vehicle ensures controlled penetration and reduced irritation, making it safer for Fitzpatrick phototypes IV to VI.
