Could I use a 40% glycolic peel on my vagina to eliminate razor bumps, discoloration, and to smoothen the surface? Will it heal?

Our office specializes in chemical peels to help treat body discoloration. A combination of a Melapeel + topical skincare including Melarase creams can help improve skin quality and tone in your armpits. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

What should I do after a chemical peel, wash with water or apply neutralizer?

Every chemical peel requires a different step for neutralizing. Knowing that the peel is 15% does not tell you anything about how to neutralize or what the strength is. Chemical peels should be done by a medical professional to see the safest and most effective results.
