Soonsu peel and retinol/vit C serum

Thank you for your question. It’s excellent that you are taking proactive steps in your skincare routine. Here are some considerations for incorporating Vitamin C and retinol serums with your Soonsu Shining Peel treatments:

Soonsu Shining Peel
Frequency: You mentioned you are doing the Soonsu Shining Peel weekly for 5-6 weeks.
Effect: This peel is designed to exfoliate and improve skin texture and tone.
Vitamin C Serum
Usage: Typically applied in the morning.
Benefits: Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps brighten the skin, improve collagen production, and protect against environmental damage.
Retinol Serum
Usage: Typically applied at night.
Benefits: Retinol promotes cell turnover, helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin texture.
Recommendations
Post-Peel Care:

After a peel, your skin can be more sensitive. It’s crucial to ensure that your skin barrier is well-hydrated and protected.
Consider using a gentle, hydrating moisturizer and sunscreen post-peel.
Introducing Vitamin C and Retinol:

Vitamin C: You can reintroduce your Vitamin C serum in the morning. Start by using it every other day to monitor how your skin reacts post-peel.
Retinol: Reintroduce retinol at night, starting with a lower frequency (e.g., every third night) and gradually increasing as tolerated.
Monitoring Skin Response:

Pay attention to any signs of irritation, redness, or excessive dryness. If you notice any adverse reactions, reduce the frequency of use or consult with your dermatologist.
Hydration and Protection:

Keep your skin well-hydrated with a gentle, hydrating moisturizer.
Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, as both peels and retinol can increase your skin’s sensitivity to the sun.
Suggested Routine
Morning:

Cleanser
Vitamin C Serum (every other day to start)
Hydrating Moisturizer
Sunscreen
Night:

Cleanser
Retinol Serum (every third night to start)
Hydrating Moisturizer
Conclusion
Introducing Vitamin C and retinol serums back into your routine can complement your Soonsu Shining Peel treatments, but it’s essential to do so gradually and with careful monitoring of your skin’s response. If you have any concerns or notice any adverse reactions, consult with a dermatologist for personalized advice.

Best of luck with your skincare routine!
