CHEMICAL PEEL PREP:

Please limit sun exposure for 2 weeks prior to treatment. This includes both outdoor sun exposure and exposure from tanning beds. You cannot receive a peel if you are sunburnt.

Discontinue any topical prescriptions or any products containing Retinol or Vitamin A (avoid any/all products with Retinoids for a minimum of 1 week prior to your treatment)

Avoid waxing, electrolysis, hair removal creams and laser hair removal treatments for 2-4 weeks prior to treatment.

Do not receive Botox or dermal fillers for at least 2-4 weeks prior to treatment.

Do not have another facial or peel treatment 2-4 weeks prior to treatment.

Make sure to properly prep the skin. Ask us about our pre treatment peel products!

POST PEEL INSTRUCTIONS:

Chemical peels should be done in a series of three to six peels. For the best results, we recommend a series of six peels, three weeks apart.

Depending on the type of peel, you may notice a mild tingling sensation or feel heat on the skin. Some acids are neutralized by us and some acids are self-neutralizing, so they keep working after you leave.

By the second or third day, you’ll notice peeling or flaking around the mouth and then the forehead. Keep your skin well-hydrated; it will continue to peel for seven to 10 days. This process is called Desquamation. DO NOT pick this skin and let it flake off naturally.

It’s important that you avoid generating any additional heat during the first 48 hours. Because layers of the skin have just been exfoliated off, exposing a fresh new layer, skin will be more susceptible to burning.

After receiving your peel, do not use any skin care products that have not been approved by me. You can start your post treatment regime the next morning.

Make sure to avoid direct sun exposure. SPF EVERYDAY is non negotiable.
