BEFORE & AFTER CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Before Your Chemical Peel

Protect from the Sun
It's important to avoid excessive sun exposure for at least a week before your peel. This includes avoiding tanning beds, as UV rays can make your skin more sensitive.
Skip Harsh Skincare
Please stop using products with retinoids, exfoliants, AHAs, and BHAs for at least a week prior to your treatment. These ingredients can make your skin more vulnerable during the peel.
Arrive Makeup-Free
To ensure the best results, come to your appointment with a clean face free of makeup. This allows for a thorough skin analysis and better product absorption.
Keep Us in the Loop
Let your skincare professional know about any medications you're currently using, any allergies, or any recent treatments you've had. This will help us tailor your treatment to your needs.
Pause Accutane
If you've recently finished a course of Accutane, it’s best to wait at least a year before scheduling a peel. If you have any concerns, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider first.
Consider Preventive Medication
If you’re prone to cold sores or fever blisters, it’s a good idea to take preventive medication before your peel, as certain treatments can trigger outbreaks.

After Your Chemical Peel

Sun Protection is Key
Your skin will be more sensitive after the peel, so be sure to protect it with sunscreen and limit sun exposure for at least 48 hours after your treatment.
Limit Intense Exercise
Avoid vigorous workouts or activities that cause heavy sweating for at least 48 hours to allow your skin to recover.
Hydrate and Soothe
Use gentle, hydrating skincare products to keep your skin nourished and calm during recovery. Avoid harsh or abrasive products.
Follow Post-Treatment Instructions
Be sure to follow any specific aftercare advice your skincare professional gives you to ensure the best outcome and promote healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chemical peels provide advantages such as enhanced skin quality and reduced issues like spots and wrinkles caused by acne scarring or aging signs in a renewal process that triggers collagen growth leading to a brighter and smoother skin appearance. With their ability to address concerns like sun damage and acne related blemishes while also combating signs of aging, chemical peels can unveil an invigorated look for your skin.
Chemical peels work by applying a chemical solution to the skin, which exfoliates the outermost layers. This process helps to stimulate cell turnover, revealing fresher, younger-looking skin beneath. The active ingredients in chemical peels—such as TCA, salicylic acid, and glycolic acid—target specific skin concerns, from acne and pigmentation to wrinkles, improving overall skin health and appearance.
During a chemical peel, a customized solution is applied to your skin to exfoliate and treat specific concerns. You may feel a tingling or slight burning sensation as the solution works, but the procedure is typically quick and well-tolerated. Afterward, your skin may appear red and feel sensitive, but these reactions are temporary and usually subside within a few hours to a few days.
Chemical peels are suitable for a wide range of skin types and conditions, from individuals with sun damage, acne, and fine lines to those seeking an overall skin refresh. However, those with active skin conditions such as eczema, rosacea, or severe acne may need to consult with a skincare professional before proceeding. Your provider will recommend the best peel for your skin type and concerns.
Downtime after a chemical peel depends on the type of peel performed. Mild peels may require little to no downtime, with some redness and flaking lasting only a few days. Medium-depth and deeper peels may involve more noticeable peeling and redness, which can last up to a week. Your skincare professional will provide aftercare instructions to help manage any discomfort and speed up healing.
Chemical peels are generally well-tolerated, though some individuals may experience mild discomfort during the procedure. You might feel a tingling or stinging sensation as the solution is applied, which typically fades quickly. Deeper peels may cause more discomfort, but your provider can take measures to minimize pain and ensure a comfortable experience.
