Asked By:question67 in Brazil, BR

Second day after my chemical peeling session i applied moisturizer andy skin started peeling and it seemed loosely attached so i started peeling it gently. The next day i woke up with more peeling in different areas which appeared brighter than the one prematurely peeled. Now the prematurely peeled area feels tight, cracky and discolored it going to peel again? What should i do to make it heal?
