Face Red and Burning During Exercise (Couple of Days After Getting a Chemical Peel)?

You should be very gentle with your skin after any type of peel.  The stronger the peel, the longer it takes for the skin to heal.  You should avoid any strenuous activity until your skin has fully recovered.  Any activity that will make you hot, such as exercise or hot showers, will dilate the blood vessels in your skin and cause redness.  Wash carefully, use gentle products and avoid the sun.  If you have any concerns, please visit the doctor who performed the peel. 

While it would be helpful to know what type of peel you had (70% what?), generally-speaking, I tell all my chemical peeling patients to avoid exercise until the skin has recovered.  The skin is very sensitive after a peel and sweat can easily irritate it and delay the healing. Redness after a peel is expected but could also easily be exacerbated by the enhanced blood flow through the vessels secondary to exercise. Continue with your gentle skin care regimen and avoid exercise and sun until your skin has healed from the peel.
