WHAT ARE CHEMICAL PEELS?
Chemical peels are advanced combination acid solutions that provide controlled exfoliation and penetrate into the skin to improve overall skin health, appearance and conditions.

Immediately after your peel your skin may appear shiny or sticky. Slight redness can occur. No picking, scratching or rubbing at the skin. Avoid exfoliating products such as retinol or other chemical or abrasive exfoliation the next week or otherwise stated by your provider. Avoid saunas and hot tubs. Makeup can be applied after 24 hours unless irritation is present. Light to moderate flaky can occur and may last up to a week depending on the strength of the peel. Use a gentle cleanser, and moisturizer and protect your skin with sunscreen as the skin will be more susceptible to burn and will hinder your results.
