I had a very cheap melanage peel but I guess the trade off is that I was not given the post treatment products. Can someone help me out and tell me what are the products about? I have hydroquinone 8% and retin A at home, can i use these? thank you so much

Answer: Chemical peels including Melapeel for the face
You are at risk of hyperpigmentation and steps should be taken to reduce the risk. I would recommend a regimen to reduce hyperpigmentation such as the Melarase AM and Melarase PM creams. You may also benefit from Melapeels later on to improve skin complexion. Best, Dr....
After a chemical peel, you may feel like your skin is dry and flaky. We advise our patients to use Elevase creams after a chemical peel to help moisturize the skin and strengthen the skin's natural moisture barrier function. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian
After chemical peels, we advise patients to maintain their results with daily exfoliation. Our choice...the Melapads Daily Exfoliating Pads. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
