I have done Skin Tech chemical peel on my leg 20 days back. I have severe black marks on my legs. Now I c my skin have craked all over,& lightly started peeling. What all changes can I notice further & when should I do next peel to get rid of cracked skin? Thank you
Thank you for your question! It is normal to have a recovery/downtime after a chemical peel which depends on the aggressiveness of the peel. Usually superficial to medium depth peels can take anywhere from 4-10 days to resolve, and after that you will notice that your concerned area will be smoother and lighter. In order to get rid of the cracked skin faster it is very important that you wash your skin with a soothing agent and use a good moisturizer soon after, that probably you doctor or your aesthetician has told you. During this time it is a ``must`` that you wear a sunscreen at least SPF 20, if your legs with be exposed to sun, so that you don't risk to get more hyperpigmentation. You can do the next peel after 3 weeks-1 month from your previous peel. For best results a series of 6-8 peels are needed always depending on the chemical peel and the results of the patients. I hope this helpful free to answer me again!!
