i had glycopeel last 2 days in my armpit, and i need to go to gym and exercise, will the sweat that will come out in my arm pit can remove the chemical that was used in glyco peel? thanks and have a nice day.
Good Question, you want to avoid working out after a peel (especially after one in the armpit for at least 4 days). Allow your skin to heal and if you are sensitive at all I would avoid any strenuous cardio. An alternative to a peel would be getting microdermabrasion done and if you are trying to lighten the skin in the arm pit area in combination with a topical skin lightener such as 4% Hydroquinone. Good Luck!
I had my 4th Glycolic Peel (30%) done a month and a half ago, and while the first 3 treatments were great, this one left my skin damaged. What should I do? It first crusted, especially my chin and neck, then when the crusting peeled off after a week, I was left with very red skin that broke out.
Even after the redness and breakouts went away (this took another 2 weeks) my skin became dark (about 4 or 5 shades darker than my normal medium-fair tone), it looks like a thousand fine lines/wrinkles have appeared on my face (I'm only 25 years old) and my chin has tiny bumps all over which just aren't going away. The cosmetic clinic I went to is telling me to give it more time, but I just don't trust them anymore. What should I do?
Anything different in your daily skincare regimen can alter the results of a chemical peel. If you tolerated the first 3 Glycolic peels well, did your technician change anything during the 4th treatment? Keep your skin hydrated and protected with at least SPF 30. Also applying a topical lightening cream of 4% Hydroquinone will help reduce any major pigmentation changes. An alternative to Hydroquinone if you are sensitive would be Kojic Acid and Arbutin. Keep in mind that this might take some time, so be patient and it should go away soon. Good luck!
