I tried the Vitalize Peel for the first time today. I've had photo facials in the past to reverse sun damage, but wanted to see how a chemical peel would do. It's just the start of Fall and I was not diligent with my sunscreen over the summer, so I have developed some new damage. It's day one, so I can't say how it worked, but the peel itself was manageable. Some burning, but tolerable and I didn't need a fan or anything to calm it. Tonight my skin is tighter and feels like velvet. The peeling should start in two days, from what I've read. I have taken before photos and will post them with the after photos in one week.

Thank you! I was told not to pick, rub it try to get the kin off from the peel. I'll ask my doc and see what she says.
