No sun exposure in the 2 weeks prior to, and after, a chemical peel is essential and sunscreen must be worn every day. Topical retin-A/retinol products need to be stopped for 3 days prior to a peel, as they increase the skin’s sensitivity. With certain peels we will recommend the use of specific skincare products to prepare the skin leading up to the treatment. For stronger peels, other precautions should be taken and these will be discussed during your initial consultation.
