Can I use a vitamin C serum while I have a chemical peel?

peynabutter
I’ve been getting TCA peels at my dermatologist for a few months now and I know when you have a chemical peel to be gentle with your skin and use gentle products, but I was wondering if I could use a vitamin C serum (L-absorbic acid) in the mornings while I have the peel going on?
