I had yesterday at the spa a 35% salicylic peel, left it for 10 min, and right after a 30% glycolic peel. I had before 4 salicylic peel(10% 15%, 20%, 30%)n 1 glycolic peel(25%)but never the same day. Yesterday, while i was having the peeling,3of my dark spots start bleeding, now i can see, in all my brown spot areas how i lost a layer of my skin inmediately after the peel.There is now dry blood and bronwness in circles,u can see the different betweemy skin n circles where the is a layer less.
In my opinion, deep peels can be dangerous for reasons like you have sited. I hope the peel was done in a physician's office or under a physician's care. Bleeding after peels is not normal, and in my opinion is dangerous. I would suggest you contact the office that did the peel so you can be evaluated and get any postcare instructions to stop anything dangerous from occurring.
I had a chemical peel yesterday and I know my face should exfoliate. What kind of facial wash would be appropriate? What about lotions afterwards? Do they need to have more gentle ingredients or keep this drying process going? I have products of both types but have no idea what to use.
First, I'm saddened the office you went to didn't give you postcare directions! I would recommend a gentle cleanser and no rubbing, exfoliating, Clarisonic, puffs, or washcloths. Lightly apply a gentle cleanser like Dove or Cetaphil and rinse it off. You shouldn't need to manually exfoliate your skin and could cause more damage if you do. After that I would recommend a good, thick cream (like DML Forte or Aquaphor), as you want to keep the skin moisturized. if you have any areas that are excessively red or peeling you can apply an OTC hydrocortisone 1% after the cleansing and before the creams. Lastly, you need to apply a good sunscreen, no matter what the weather looks like, because this will be newer skin cells you are exposing to the environment, so start protecting them right away!
I had a chemical peel (Jessner with 25% TCA) on my neck and chest a week ago. It completely peeled but left two very red and sensitive spots on each side of my neck. Even though I have continued to keep the skin moisturized the red spots are crusting again. Is this normal for skin to peel twice in one session?
The peel you mentioned is extremely aggressive and the neck and chest area are exceptionally sensitive and thin areas. I would recommend you see a dermatologist. You may need a kenalog shot to stop the inflammation and a topical steroid in ointment form (like Betamethasone) to apply several times a day. Hopefully there isn't any skin permanently damaged here, but you need to start addressing this now, with an experienced physician.
