How long after Dermamelan intimate peel can I get another peel or laser treatment done?

Question

I've gotten the Dermamelan intimate peel done a couple weeks ago and I wanted to know when it would be okay to get another peel or laser treatment done for further lightening in the intimate area. Thanks!

Lightening peels of the pubic and pelvic area should be methodically performed by expert staff and should be conservative. If you feel that it is working, I would consider enhancing the peel with at-home topical skin lightening products to further lighten the pigmentation. The product that we use in our office is the Melarase PM Arbutin cream used once or twice daily.

Best.

When considering additional treatments after a Dermamelan intimate peel, it's crucial to allow your skin adequate time to heal and regenerate to avoid irritation or potential damage. Generally, it is advisable to wait at least 4 to 6 weeks before undergoing another peel or laser treatment. This waiting period allows the skin to recover fully from the initial procedure and reduces the risk of complications.

However, individual healing times can vary, so it's important to consult with your dermatologist or the healthcare provider who performed your initial peel. They can assess your skin's condition and provide personalized advice based on your specific circumstances. Additionally, follow all post-care instructions provided by your dermatologist to ensure the best results and minimize any adverse effects.
