Hello, I got a chemical peel and about 3 days later I started to pick at it and it became really irritated. I’m on day 4 now and have seen the skin where I picked at became so much worse! I am horrified. I am not sure how to fix this. Please help!!

Answer: Chemical Peel Thank you for your question and photographs. There's some irritation visible from the photographs, allow the areas to heal completely as the more you pick the more scarring you will have over time. You should use a micro roller with growth factors to help promote collagen and retexturize the skin to even out some of those areas that have unevenness. I also recommend to use Niacinamide, Rutin and Azelaic acid to help relieve the redness and calm the skin down. You should look into Laser toning to help even out the skin tone, lighten some of the darker pigments and brighten your skin tone. In order to improve these you will require multiple treatments and make sure to be careful as not to cause further pigmentation if using other laser options.
