What is a pre party peel ?

Thank you for your question.  In general if you are a suitable candidate for a peel you can have nearly anyone with a month or more to go for the wedding.  If you are looking for just a glow to your skin a light chemical peel is likely sufficient with little downtime or flaking.  Hope this helps. 

Since your wedding is one month away this is the perfect time to have a consultation with a board-certified dermatologist. My recommendation is to not do anything with too much downtime. The breakthrough is that now we have non-invasive gentle peels that result in little to no downtime, but still give patients extraordinary results. A chemical peel would be an excellent treatment to do a week or two before your wedding. You could combine this treatment with a collagen boosting laser. Again, once you have your consultation you will be able to determine what your main priorities are. Whether it is accomplishing a beautiful glow, while evening out fine lines, treating acne, hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores or dullness.

See q dermatolgsit several weeks before event because you need to schedule at least one week for peel to resolve.

The best way to plan on a chemical peel is to decide how many days of down time you can afford and what areas you are treating.  I have many patients who come to the office before their wedding with the goal of "fixing" certain areas of concern before the "big day".  You have to make sure that you give yourself enough time before the event. There are all different strengths of chemical peels and the stronger the peel usually the longer it takes to resolve.  It is always best to have the peel at least one week before a big event to ensure that you stop peeling before.  Please consult an expert.

With one month to spare before your party, you can discuss with your doctor or nurse virtually all the peels the office offers, as there is virtually full recovery from most peels in 1 week or 10 days.  As I have always said, a peel does exactly what it says:  you will peel.  The choice of peel will be determined by how much peeling you are willing to take, what skin conditions are being addressed and whether you are willing to consider series of peels.  For gentle peels, consider the Obagi Radiance Peel(not their Blue Peel), Glytone Peels, and Topix Light or Intermediate Peel Systems.
