Thank you for your question. I suggest that you use whatever your board certified facial plastic surgeon recommended for relief. Most patients are recommended healing/soothing ointments, but you should be following the instructions of your surgeon so that you can remain consistent with their recovery plans.Best wishes,
I don't recommend doing chemical peels yourself. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist for recommendations for after care including lasers, microneedling/prp and skin care. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
You should have received instructions on post - peel instructions. Lemons would be extremely irritating after a peel. Creams such as Epiceram, Aquaphor, or even Vaseline, can be used on dry skin after a peel. Please consult a board certified dermatologist to help you plan your chemical peel and after care. Best, Dr. Green
No, you should not use lemon on your face one week after a chemical peel. Wash with a gentle cleanser, use a moisturizer and avoid the sun.
