How long before the final results of Melanage Peel?

June 4, 2015
Asked By:lubdup2015 in Saint Louis, MO

It's been 7 days since my first Mini Melanage Peel. My skin was peeling the most yesterday and today a lot of the peeling is gone. I'm using the Melanage Creme 2 nightly. Some pigmentation is gone, but mostly by face is red and I still have some hyperpigmentation from past acne. Will the hyperpigmentation eventually go away as I continue to use the after-peel care kit?
