Hypopigmentation after glycolic peel - any suggestions to speed up the healing process? (Photo)

July 11, 2022
Asked By:Pixie228 in Milan, IT

So about 2 weeks back I used the peeling solution, and a day later some areas of my face were swollen with a visible edema which lasted for a day after which those areas became tighter, wrinkly and flaky. Now I could see them as blotched patches showing hypopigmentation. At the moment, I'm only using heavy duty moisturizers and hydroquinone 4% during evenings on hopes of having an even tone at least. Any suggestions to speed up the healing process or whether this hypopigmentation is permanent?
