I am worried , 6 days after my VI peel,used the kit accordingly, the skin on my chin, became dry cracked, draker and scaly. I have been moisturizing and putting sunblock, will this get better?
I had a Vi peel done 4 days ago and started to notice significant swelling around my mouth area about 72 hours after the peel. The skin had already shed away and now my new skin underneath is all swollen to the point where I can't open my mouth. It's so swollen my skin is starting to crack. I tried the hydrocortisone cream and it has done nothing to help. Is this normal and how long should this last? Is this an allergy and if so could it be to the peel or the hydrocortisone cream?
The skin on my chin on both sides of my mouth are extremely dry and no matter what I put on it, it burns. Last night, the only thing I could find to apply (that didn't feel like it was burning) was coconut oil. Today I can tolerate Vaseline on it. The peeling is gone in this area (this is day 5) and I am left with darker skin that feels leathery to the touch and cracks whenever I open my mouth too wide. What else can I do to make sure it stays hydrated and doesn't cause permanent damage?
I did my Vi-peel on Friday at 12pm and started peeling the very next day. Today is Monday and I have peeled a lot and it seems the area around my mouth is very dry and peeling again. That's fine. Except I'm very worried because I laughed a little while ago and literally felt the right corner of my chin tear a little. I'm very worried that it will scar. Also my Post Peel Protectant and Sunscreen burn my skin on application but only for 1 minute. Can anyone guide me as to how to care for the tear?
