THINGS TO THINK ABOUT AFTER THE TREATMENT
For carbon peels: Avoid sun exposure for the next month to reduce the risk of pigmentation.
Chemical peels with BioRePeel:
Immediately after treatment
It is common to experience:
- slight redness
- tightness
- dryness
- mild peeling
- slight stinging
Some people have almost no visible reaction at all, while others have a slight peeling after a few days.
Sun protection is very important
Use:
- SPF 30–50 daily
- preferably broad spectrum
Avoid:
- strong sun
- sunbed
- intensive UV exposure
…at least for the first week.
This is especially important because the skin is more sensitive after acid treatment.
Avoid strong products for a few days
Temporarily take a break from:
- retinol
- tretinoin
- AHA/BHA acids
- strong vitamin C
- exfoliation
- scrub
Focus instead on:
- gentle cleansing
- moisturizing
- barrier-supporting products.
Avoid heat for the first 24–48 hours
Try to avoid:
- sauna
- hot showers
- intensive exercise
- steam
- hot treatments
…to reduce irritation.
Makeup
Many people can apply light makeup fairly quickly, sometimes the next day, but it is best to:
- let the skin rest for the first 24–48 hours if possible.
NEXT APPOINTMENT
Chemical peeling with BioRePeel:
Many people do:
- a course of 3–6 treatments
with: - 1–3 weeks between sessions
…depending on skin type and goals.
Carbon peel: You will see results after just one treatment, but we recommend a course of 3 with about 10 days between sessions.
