I got a VI peel 2 days ago and I'm already peeling! I've been washing my skin with the VI Peel face wash and using the anti itch cream and sunscreen. Should I use a moisturizer even though my skin is in the peeling process? Or should I wait until my skin is completely peeled before applying moisturizer ? I only use Argan oil as moisturizer.
I got a VI Peel on Friday and it is now Sunday. I am peeling around my nose and mouth quite a bit, and I am expecting more peeling the next few days. I am not touching the peeling, and I know not peeling the skin off my face. However, I unfortunately have a lot of meetings this week as well as a few classes. Do you recommend anything to speed the process (lots of moisturizer, less moisturizer, aquaphor, etc)?? Bad timing to get a peel, but this was an emergency peel that had to be done now!
I had a VI PEEL done on Tuesday afternoon, before bed I use the first towelette like directions said. Last night I used the second towelette. The two days my face have been tight. I started peeling this afternoon all of a sudden I had skin hanging around my mouth and nose. Question is. Can I use the third towelette tonight all over my face since I'm already peeling? Is it safe for the new skin underneath? I ask my dermatologist and said use it on places I'm not peeling yet? Help!
I am on day 4 - starting to peel a lot, I bought aquaphor but it was kind of burning me all day. Just want to know what I should be using - my kit didn't come with a moisturizer only the SPF and peel protectant. So mornings cleanse, and throughout the day Peel protectant and SPF? And aquaphor if needed?
Just before I went to bed on the 2nd night, I got my face cleansed and ready to apply the last post peel towelette (retinoic acid & vit c) when I noticed big sheets of skin coming off when I was patting my face with a towel to dry up. Should I still use the last towelette or stop and just continue to moisturize and protect with a sunscreen. I don't want to mess up the peeling cycle by applying the last towelette on new skin. Please advice!
I got the peel on saturday. For after care, i was told to use aquaphor instead of the post peel protectant and sunscreen. My face doesn't feel dry. Only slight peeling in my temple area on right side of my face. I have significant acne scarring and hyperpigmentation. I have dark skin of african descent. I paid $400 for the peel and am worried i wasted my money. I've seen so many youtube videos of the peeling process my peeling looks so mild. Should i which to the post peel protectant instead of aquaphor.
