How long should I wait after a Blue Peel to get a Forever Young BBL treatment?

Question

I had the Zo (Obagi) blue peel on 09/24/2014. My face is completely done peeling and back to normal.

Thank you for your question. I would recommend waiting at least 2-4 weeks after an aggressive peel to do any laser treatments. I would recommend wearing SPF 30 with zinc daily. I hope this helps!

It depends on the depth of the Blue TCA peel, number of passes, stength of the TCA, skin type and thickness and other factors. In general however we recommend that our patients wait at least 3 months before using the Sciton BBL. See the below link for more information

If you skin is well healed 6 weeks should be adequate. Start at a lower strength or do a skin test if there is any question about the settings

BBL is FDA cleared for the treatment of benign pigmented lesions, cutaneous vascular lesions, hair reduction, and pustular inflammatory acne vulgaris. I recommend that you wait at least 6 weeks after the Obagi Blue peel before you seek BBL broadband light therapy. In the interim, use high SPF protection to protect your skin.
