If your no longer peeling from the chemical peel, shaving is fine now. I would wait at least two weeks to wax, the chemical peel can thin your skin. Thank you for your question.Kate Ross, MD

It does depend on the type of Chemical Peel, once any peeling has stopped you should be fine to shave.  Obviously if your skin is still sensitive procede with caution.
