My skin has started peeling prematurely! What should I do? (Photo)

December 4, 2015
Asked By:joe71941 in Greece, GR

I did a TCA peel last month so I decided to do it again. I have not faced such complications the last time. Basically, this is the third day (I got my peel Thursday) and I woke up and I am petrified. A piece of my dead skin peeled off prematurely (jawline area) and i am positive it's not ready to peel. The new skin is really pink i am scared. What should I do? The peel is 25% and I did it at at a sertified dermatologist's office.
