WHAT TO EXPECT POST TREATMENT
Each person’s skin is unique, and so is their response to treatment. Your Skin Expert will guide you on what to expect based on the specific treatment you’ve received. It’s normal to experience some warmth or tingling immediately after your session, which typically subsides within a few hours. Peeling & Recovery – The extent of peeling (if any) and recovery time will vary depending on your skin condition and the chosen peel. Your skin may become hot, red, and peel significantly, or it might become slightly dry and flaky. In some cases, you may not notice any peeling at all. This process can last anywhere from 5 to 12 days, and the right home care can help accelerate recovery.
