Peel Aftercare

In order to maintain skin comfort and control residual inflammation for the peel treatment, it is important that you follow the below post peel treatment homecare protocol for up to 7 days. You may recommence your normal skin regime 7 days post peel treatment, unless specified otherwise by Grace. The need to use SPF cannot be overemphasised. Failure to do so can result in significant sunburn and may compromise the overall result.
