Strenous Exercise and Sweating the Day After Vi Peel?

Question

I am a runner and wondering if sweating on day 2 and after of the vi peel affects the effectiveness of the vi peel

Jon E. Mendelsohn, MD, FACS · Answer

If you perspire after your VI Peel it creates irritation on the surface of the just treated skin. The salty components of your sweat causes a burning on the surface of the skin, causing undo discomfort and chances for complications. After the initial 2 or 3 days following your VI Peel regular exercise that causes perspiration should be OK.

After you have washed off the peel, which should be at least 4 hours after application, there is no problem with exercise and sweating. Just be sure to moisturize frequently. I recommend at least 4 times a day after a Vi Peel.

Daniel J. Ladd Jr., DO · Answer

Heavy sweating for the first 2-3 days after your ViPeel can cause facial stinging and make the skin peel too soon.  If you started running 2 days after the peel you'll most likely be fine.  I'm assuming you don't have any risk factors that cause slow healing, such as being a smoker.  Hope this helps.  Take care.
