I had the peel done yesterday... There was no discomfort ... Product has to be on for 6 hrs .. Your given instructions and given a take home after care kit .. I was given a little thing gentle cleanser to was w too... I washed my face late at night.. Gently pay my face dry than applied the first post peel towelette in the kit.... My face stinged just a little bit but no itching... This am woke up washed my face as directed and have minimal itching but no big deal .., I had two little tony areas on my chin this afternoon startex to peel but I trimmed it already lol w tiny scissors .., I expect to start see more peeling after tonight in the am .. I stay at home so it's no big deal to hang in the house all day.. I just do t like not being able to workout but I know it's I my four days which wing set me back ???? I wil only have this peel done two times a year as part of my skin regime .. This is the first time in doing this kind of peel ... I feel like ipl 3 sessions a year is not what my skin needs anymore ( been doing it for 3 years now)and I will get better results w this peel .... I do use the nu-derm obagi line for my everyday am/pm routine as well

More peeling .. Went out just a few to get out of the house and felt like a side freak show .. I will not go out into public again until normal again :)...looking rough w rolled dead skin on my neck and face.., not pleasant at all but I know my face and neck will look fab at the end ... I personally could not do a stronger tca peel or laser down the road it would drive me crazy along w being house bound ..

It was tough the last two half days but made it through and very happy e the end results ... Will do again in another year... I don't ever feel I will need anything more invasive than this peel down the road .., I use obagi 50 block sunscreen on my face, neck and chest .., I just started the obagi elasterderm decollerate and had the same peel done on my chest to remove freckles a month ago .., so far so good .. Hope to have my chest look as good as my chest in another month :) ... I would recommend this peel vs the more invasive ones .., happy w results on my face and neck .. Will post a pic later today
