Afterwards you might notice a slight flushing, like after exercising, for a few hours. Tingling is common for a day or two. Flaking can occur for a few days and is best managed with our recommended skin care products.
- Are there side effects?
-
Side effects are rare. Some clients may experience tingling, mild redness or slight swelling . It is critical to use Bioactive Cosmeceuticals to get the most value out of your performance peel treatment. An anti-oxidant and a sunscreen is used at the conclusion of your treatment and is essential to use afterwards since the exfoliated skin has temporarily lost some of it?s natural protection from the environment. Avoid sun exposure and tanning.
- When will I start to see results?
-
In just a few days you'll notice brighter skin tone and smoother texture. Hyperpigmentation, acne scars, fine lines, will lessen gradually with a series of performance peels.
- How long do the effects last?
-
If you're only using performance peels the effects last a few weeks to months. Periodically you'll want a refresher treatment. Use of our Bioactive Cosmeceuticals will enhance the duration of benefits.
