pHformula - chemical skin resurfacing treatment
Do you have signs of aging, sensitivity, chronic redness, acne or hyperpigmented skin or do you want to improve your skin tone? Do you feel that you need solutions for the above-mentioned possible disorders of the skin? The success of pHformula is based on excellent treatment results in the improvement of skin disorders with a safe method that promotes skin functions. The coating process creates a fresh functional surface layer on the skin. Klinik Linnea recommends a skin care consultation before pHformula coating treatments.
What is the treatment?
Dermatological skin coating method pHformula focuses on treating skin disorders such as premature aging, sensitive skin, rosacea, acne and hyperpigmented skin. pHformula has designed its own treatment protocol for different disorders of the skin. At Klinik Linnea, skin resurfacing treatments are performed according to the recommendation of your skin specialist.
​
-
AGE solution treatment protocol for aged skin and skin changes caused by it, e.g. cloudy or yellowish skin, fading lines, photoaging (sun damage), pigment changes, age spots, telangiectasia, keratosis or unhealthy stratum corneum condition.
-
MELA powerclay treatment protocol for hyperpigmentation and skin changes caused by it, e.g. melasma, chloasma, UV-induced hyperpigmentation, superficial melanin disorders (epidermal), post-inflammation hyperpigmentation, summer spots caused by the sun, freckles.
-
ACNE solution treatment protocol for acne skin treatment. The coating has anti-inflammatory properties and a strong cleansing effect that promotes balancing problem skin. Klinik Linnea recommends the ACNE solution treatment protocol in the clinic for level 1-3 acne. Klinik Linnea and phformula recommends level 4 acne treatment under the supervision of a doctor.
-
CR 1 complex treatment protocol for skin prone to chronic redness and rosacea. Selected anti-microbial active substances prevent and soothe inflammation and prevent recurrence of the problem.
-
The MD TCA Touch™ treatment protocol is an intensive skin stimulation treatment for aged, pigmented or scarred skin performed by a healthcare professional. The skin stimulation treatment comprehensively renews the skin cells, bringing an immediate lifting effect and improving the smoothness and brightness of the skin.The combination of pure trichloroacetic acid 30%, arbutin and magnesium together with pHformula's patented carrier compound offers maximum results, without prolonged braiding or recovery time.
​
The core of PHformula's treatment system is based on the technology of reconstructive medicine and the development of the concept of controlled chemical skin coatings, whose function differs from traditional chemical peels.
Chemical peels often cause severe peeling of the skin, while controlled coating actively accelerates the renewal of skin cells in different layers of the skin, without skin trauma or superficial irritation.
What kind of results can be achieved with the treatment?
The results obtained with the treatments depend on the regular use of the products and the number of coating treatments performed. Results will vary depending on your skin problem and you may need several treatments to achieve optimal results. The coating process creates a fresh functional surface layer on the skin. Following the instructions of your Klinik Linnean skin specialist, you will get visible results
and protect your skin proactively preventing future skin problems.
What is included in the treatment?
The treatment includes a consultation, skin cleansing, priming, confirmation of the skin's sensitivity level, coating, soothing & moisturizing and skin protection. After the treatment, aftercare instructions will be reviewed and you will be able to complete the entire treatment with a relaxing and restorative moment at Klinik Linnea. We recommend a separate skin care consultation before the pHformula treatment period, where a skin care plan will be made for you and instructions will be given you for the next treatment period.
​
