I had a chemical peel yesterday and I know my face should exfoliate. What kind of facial wash would be appropriate? What about lotions afterwards? Do they need to have more gentle ingredients or keep this drying process going? I have products of both types but have no idea what to use.
Answer: Right after a chemical peel be kind to your skin.

Answer: Recommend using Melaclenz and elevase moisture booster after a chemical peel Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis for most deep scars. The options available for acne scars depend on the character of your scars, in terms of topography and contour. We see atrophic and hypertrophic acne scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. We begin each scar evaluation with an assessment of scar quality and subtype. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to decide whether early subcision should be started.

Answer: Post Peel Care Each peel comes with its own specific post care instructions so I would advise you to call and ask the medical office that you had the procedure performed in. However, I can tell you that with most peels you do need to use only a gentle wash that is chemical free for the first week followed by a broad spectrum sunscreen. Depending on what peel you had done will determine when you would start using a moisturizer. Is some cases, a moisturizer can slow down or stunt the actual peeling process. You should allow approximately three to four days for the peeling process to start. It is very important that you do not pick or pull at any of the skin it should naturally slough off.

Answer: Chemical Peel Aftercare Thank you for your message! After a chemical peel you can expect your skin to peel or flake off. During this period you will want to use a gentle cleanser in the morning and at night, something like a Cerave or Cetaphil. You will want to use gentle moisturizers such as Aquaphor as well. You should avoid exfoliating products, Retinols/Retin-A, and the sun! We generally recommend using a sunscreen throughout the day and keeping sun exposure to a minimum.
