WHAT TO EXPECT: It’s normal to feel some tingling or a slight burning sensation after treatment. Your skin may become dry, flaky, irritated, or mildly red. A few days later, your complexion may appear dull and uneven, and in some cases, you may experience purging or breakouts. These are all temporary conditions that will subside in the following days. Depending on the type of peel, you may also experience light to significant skin peeling 3-4 days post-treatment.
If peeling occurs, it’s important not to pull, pick, or rub the skin—let it shed naturally. Avoid applying active ingredients while your skin is still peeling.
Please note: If your skin doesn’t peel, it doesn’t mean the treatment was unsuccessful.

DAY 1-2: The treated area will feel tight and may appear slightly darker.
The day of the peel application is “Day 1.” The Peel solutions should remain on the treated areas for at least 6 hours. During the first 6 hours, do not wash, touch, rub, or apply makeup to the treated areas.
After 6 hours you can apply the Post Peel Moisturizer with 1% hydrocortisone (included in Patient Home Care Kit) if:
If you are not experiencing any irritation, the peel solution can remain on your skin until your evening cleansing or it may be left on overnight.
When ready to wash off:
If you are experiencing irritation, apply a small amount of The Post Peel Moisturizer 2-3 times daily. You may also apply a cold compress against the irritated area for relief. If there is no significant irritation, do not use any moisturizing products on the treated areas until peeling begins (usually Day 3).
Avoid excessive sweating, sauna or heavy exercise during the peel process.
DAY 3-6: Peeling generally begins on Day 3.
After peeling begins, apply The Post Peel Moisturizer (included in the Home Care Kit) to the treated areas 2-3 times a day to control the peeling and relieve tightness.
– This moisturizer should be used for one week for skin types 1-3
– Use for two weeks for skin types 4-6
– If The Post Peel Moisturizer runs out, a 1% hydrocortisone cream may be substituted(can be purchased at any local pharmacy)
– Do not rub, pick or pull on the peeling skin, let the peeling occur naturally. Rubbing, picking or pulling may cause scarring.
– Gently wash (do not scrub) and dry the treated areas morning and night, and apply ThePost Peel Moisturizer as needed.
– Mineral Perfection SPF 30 should be applied every 2 hours during the day.
DAY 7+ : The peeling process is generally complete.
Mild sloughing may still be occurring in some treated areas. Continue to protect the skin with Mineral Perfection SPF 30 as sun exposure after a chemical peel can cause adverse reactions such as hyperpigmentation.
