I would begin treatment with Melarase creams followed by MelaPeels once monthly to help correct the pigmentation in your underarms. Raffy Karamanoukian, Los Angeles
In general, facial peels should not interfere with hair growth. The hair follicle originate deep under the skin, and the peels act on the superficial layers of the skin. There may be a few follicles that are affected mechanically (the rubbing of the skin) but not necessarily chemically.
Dear patient; I believe that a light Jessner peel is quite safe. There is a risk; but I believe it is small.Keep the skin hydrated with topical moisturizers and see your dermatologist if there is any evidence of recurrence.
