Answer: Post Chemical Peel Thank you for your question. It is important to wash your face with cool water and a mild cleansing agent. Be sure to moisturize and keep the skin hydrated at all times. Although very rewarding, chemical peels can temporarily compromise your skin's protective barrier so it is important to reinforce that barrier with a medium to thick moisturizer to prevent cracking and speed the healing. Some companies offer a medical barrier cream for post procedures and that will help you reach your end goal at a faster pace. Best of luck!

Answer: Chemical peel healing Hi, thanks for sharing your photos. There is no safe way to speed up this healing process. You need to let the skin peel naturally as hastening this process by exfoliating,picking etc may result in scarring and/or hyperpigmentation. Your treating therapistshould provide a healing timeline estimate. All the best, Dr Campey
