Before your chemical peel, avoid retinoids, retinol, AHAs, BHAs, scrubs, and waxing for 3 days. These products can increase sensitivity and affect how the peel absorbs. In addition, reschedule if you have a cold sore, rash, or active irritation in the treatment area. Preparing the skin gently ensures the peel works effectively and reduces the risk of unnecessary redness.
After your peel, expect mild dryness or peeling that begins within a few days. Use only a gentle cleanser, moisturize regularly, and apply SPF every morning. Avoid picking, heavy sweating, heat exposure, and exfoliating products for about a week. By keeping your skin protected and hydrated, you support healthy recovery and reveal the smoother, brighter complexion beneath.
Chemical peels gently exfoliate damaged skin and stimulate healthy renewal, improving tone, texture, and clarity across the face and body. Each treatment is matched to your skin type and concerns to safely lift pigmentation, smooth roughness, refine pores, and restore a brighter, more even complexion.
