Thank you for your question. We would need to know the results of your first chemical peel and your thought process for a second chemical peel. Your board certified facial plastic surgeon should work closely with you to develop a treatment plan that includes a review of your recovery and healing process before beginning any additional chemical peels. Keep in mind that the medium peel can take up to six weeks for your skin to stop being red and uncomfortable.Best wishes,

Thank you for your question!  I would advise you to contact your provider but some patients experience this after chemical peels. Your provider should be able to tell you if you are experiencing pigmentation. It is hard to give you any opinion without pictures. Best of luck!
