POST PEEL

Resuming Skin Care Products:

Non-Actives- Can be resumed once peeling has subsided, usually day 6-7.

Actives (retinols, AHA's, BHA's)- Can be resumed once peeling has subsided and sensitivity has returned to normal, usually day 7-10.

Scheduling the Next VI Peel:

 VI Peels should be scheduled every 4-6 weeks (for best results)

Additional Skincare Treatments:

 It is recommended to wait for a minimum of 2 weeks before any treatment that creates exfoliation of the skin. (Includes facials, extractions, waxing, and threading)

TOWELETTES

Function: The towelettes included in your post peel kit provide additional stimulation of the skin and expedite the peeling process.

Use: First towelette should be used 4 hours after your peel has been applied. Subsequent towelettes will be applied at intervals designated in your aftercare booklet. All towelettes should be spaced a minimum of 4 hours apart and all towelettes should be used in the first 48 hours.

Discontinue any unused towelettes if you note any peeling within the first 48 Hours.

AFTERCARE TIPS

• The level of peeling may vary from flaking to heavy peeling. You will peel as much as your skin needs to peel.

• Your skin may experience slight irritation, itchiness, or inflammation.

• Dark spots may temporarily darken during the peeling process.

• Acne purging may be noticed as impurities are brought to the surface of the skin.

• Avoid sun exposure for 7 days after your VI Peel Treatment.

• Avoid rubbing, pulling, picking, and peeling the skin. This can cause irritation, scarring, and pigmentation.

• Avoid activities that cause excessive sweating until your peeling begins. Once peeling has begun, resume your exercise routine but we recommend avoiding the sauna, hot tubs, and steam rooms until your peeling has completed on day 7.

• Avoid hot water when cleansing your face.

• Stay hydrated and drink lots of water.

• After application of each towelette, wash hands with soap and water.
