Green peels, like any ablative therapy, should be used without sun exposure prior or afterwards for ideally 4 weeks. Sun exposure is particularily important with LASER resurfacing procedures. Patients adherence to skin care protocols is necessary to help patients obtain ideal results.
The Green Peel lives up to is name and does cause "peeling" of the skin- often up to 5 days. The effectiveness of the peel is in removing impurities and helping damaged skin. Acne scars are notoriously difficult to treat and may see limited improvement with a green peel.
You should avoid any laser treatment for up to 6-8 weeks post peel. If you skin is still red and sensitized, I would wait a little longer. In the long run, it is always better to be safe than sorry. Good Luck!
