I heard that moisturizing may delay the peeling process Oh I have one more question too, how are chemical peels on the body different than they are on the face.

Answer: Moisturizing after Chemical Peels Yes, I most definitely recommend moisturizing after a chemical peel. My aestheticians in my office will apply moisturizer on after they do the chemical peel treatment on you. If you are doing it for acne reason or have oily skin we can use an oil free moisturizer. We customize every treatment to the patients skin needs. Depending on the strength of the peel you may have peeling. In this case you want to avoid picking the skin off and always use SPF!

Answer: Moisturizing After a Chemical Peel Moisturizing the skin after a chemical peel procedure should be part of the process of overall skin care — the reason you probably had a peel in the first place. If your provider did not review a skin care routine, go over the proper pre- and post-peel care, then I suggest that you find another provider. A skin care specialist under the auspices of a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon is your best bet here. Skin care, and moisturizing, post chemical peel is a must. Chemical peels on the body are different than on the face because the skin on different parts of the body are different — thinker in some areas and heal differently than what we normally have for the face. These should only be done under the care of a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon.
