I would suggest a ceramide moisturizer after a salicylic acid peel to reduce redness and dryness of the skin. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

I would recommend a combination of Elevase ceramide cream and Melarase PM at this point to sooth the skin and reduce pigmentation. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

This should be done by a board certified professional to avoid any long term issues. There is risk of scarring and change in pigmentation if not done correct. Best, Dr. Emer.

They work great but take a series of treatments to get an effect.  Please see an expert for treatment and avoid doing these at home for risk of burn and discoloration.  Best, Dr. Emer.
