Note: Superficial peels result in little-to-no downtime but create dramatic and visible results. Treatments may cause slight redness, tightness, peeling, flaking, or temporary dryness. Most patients find it unnecessary to apply makeup, as the skin will be smooth, dewy, and radiant following your treatment. If you would like to apply makeup, allow approximately 15 minutes for the pH of the skin to stabilize before applying foundation.

Post-Facial Care

• Avoid any exfoliation to the area for 48 hours post-treatment.

• Avoid retinols and any products that contain fragrance.
• Avoid vigorous physical activity for the first 48 hours after a chemical peel to prevent irritation.

• After a professional peel treatment, you should not necessarily expect to “peel.” However, light flaking in a few localized areas for several days is typical. Most patients who undergo these treatments have residual redness for approximately one to 12 hours post-procedure.
• To minimize side effects and maximize results after receiving a peel treatment, use The Post-Procedure Solution for three to five days or until flaking has resolved.
• Moisturizer should be applied at least twice a day, but can be applied more frequently for hydration and to decrease the appearance of flaking.
