Overview

A mandelic peel in Baku at Paramed, listed in the price list as the almond peel, costs 60 AZN. Mandelic acid is obtained from bitter almonds, which is where the name comes from. Its molecule is larger than that of glycolic acid, so it penetrates more slowly and evenly. That makes it one of the gentler acid peels for sensitive, oily or acne-prone skin. It helps even out tone and texture and keep pores clearer. The cosmetologist chooses the peel at a free consultation, taking into account your skin type and the season. SPF is mandatory after every peel at Paramed.

Technology

Mandelic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid with a relatively large molecule. Because it moves into the skin slowly, it exfoliates more evenly and is usually better tolerated than smaller-molecule acids. At Paramed it is one of four acid peels at 60 AZN, alongside lactic, glycolic and retinoic peels. If your skin needs a stronger effect, the cosmetologist may move you on to Jessner, PRX-T33 or BioRePeel, each at 100 AZN.

  • Almond (mandelic) peel — 60 AZN
  • Larger-molecule AHA, gentle exfoliation
  • Suited to sensitive and acne-prone skin by indication
  • SPF mandatory afterwards

FAQ

? Is a mandelic peel the same as an almond peel? ⌄

Yes. Mandelic acid is derived from bitter almonds, so the procedure appears in the Paramed price list as the almond peel. It costs 60 AZN per session, the same as lactic and glycolic peels.

? Is a mandelic peel suitable for sensitive skin? ⌄

It is one of the gentler acid peels thanks to its larger molecule. Still, the cosmetologist checks for irritation, couperose or active inflammation first and may choose a lactic peel if your skin is very reactive.

? Can a mandelic peel help acne-prone skin? ⌄

Peels are among the in-clinic options for acne-prone skin, alongside laser and cleansing. A mandelic peel may be chosen for oily skin with breakouts; for active acne, the dermatologist's assessment comes first.

? Do I need SPF after a mandelic peel? ⌄

Yes. SPF is mandatory after all peels at Paramed. Freshly exfoliated skin is more vulnerable to sun, so protection should be applied daily, and peels are planned with the season in mind.

? Who should not have a mandelic peel? ⌄

Postpone the mandelic peel during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with herpes, wounds or inflammation on the face, after a fresh tan, or if isotretinoin was taken within the last 6 months.

Course plan

A typical course of mandelic chemical peels involves a series of sessions, usually spaced a few weeks apart. This allows your skin to recover and maximize the benefits of each treatment. A common recommendation is to undergo 3 to 6 sessions for optimal results.

Contraindications

  • ⚠️ Pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • ⚠️ Active skin infections or irritations

Comparison

Mandelic peels are often compared to other chemical peels like glycolic or salicylic peels. While glycolic peels are effective for deeper exfoliation, they may not be suitable for sensitive skin. Mandelic peels, on the other hand, provide gentle exfoliation and are ideal for all skin types, particularly sensitive skin. They also have a lower risk of irritation compared to stronger alternatives.
