Asked By:jlm1287 in Newport Beach, CA

2 weeks ago I did Radiance peel. I did two passes & frosted alot. Prior to the peel I had some irritated from tretinoin. I normally use .1% tret nightly. Post, I peeled alot. While peeling, I used left over VI Peel hydrocortisone. Did not pick hanging skin! Afterwards face looked great but then I developed hyperpigment around mouth area. Used 4%hq, areas got darker. Had a facial done 1 week post peel (dermaplaning, hydrating mask, red/blue light)Now the areas are darker, flaky, dry & irritated.
