Meaning the Lactic acid cleanser being an acid cleanser I am not sure whether this is suitable the day after my peel. All my other products should be fine along with finishing off with a few drops these oils (Emu oil & Healing Oil). What cleanser should I use ?
Generally speaking any of our cleansers are just fine to use after a peel – I know I do! But, if your skin is more sensitive, then absolutely choose a mild cleanser like a cetaphil.
Once your skin is all done with the shedding process you can go back to your normal routine.
Dream Peel isn’t a chemical peel and anyone can use it. The biggest thing is to follow the recommendations and start with 1 night if you are sensitive. Next time do 2 nights… and 3 nights in the future.
I’m very interested in these products but I have a biopsy report pending to see if I have melanoma. It’s not looking good but I’m waiting to hear before I can do anything new to my face.
I use jessner peel & tca 15 my skin It starts to peel but when my face is finished peeling I start to have red and dark spot around my chain and my cheek area.
Many people are more aggressive to certain areas of their faces on a daily basis. Cheeks, chin and forehead are always Scrubbed Harder usually when the face is being washed for example. Try to be a bit more gentle when you know you are going to be doing a peel in the next week. Another thought for you is to do 1 or 2 LESS layers to those areas knowing that you are more aggressive usually and they are thinner.
We do not want you to use acids (tretinoin or Vitamin C) after peels. Wait until the skin is completely done flaking before you go back to your normal regimen again.
At pm I use routinely my niacrnemide, Retin A 0.1%, tranacemic acid or spot cream with hydroqunone, hyalaruna acid, moisturizer.
At am hyalaruna acid, vit C, alpha arbutin, spot cream, moisturizer or snail mucin. I had been doing this for years. My melasma is not that bad but I want it completely gone. Please help. Skin type dry (tan Asian)
Hello. I would suggest adding a peel into your monthly regimen. Something like Jessners at 2 layers could greatly help this. *You can add more layers moving forward each month if you wish. You must prep Asian skin with a melanin inhibitor for at least 4 weeks – of which you are doing now with the alpha arbutin, HQ and tranexamic acid. So your skin is ready.
Another option is a milder peel such as the Mandelic 40 2x per month. EO Week. Much milder with pretty much Zero Social Downtime. Just some dryness for a few days.

Can you create a graphical timeline of aftercare with product recommendations?
This would really help.
That is a great idea Marci. We can definitely work on that. Stay tuned.

Once any dryness or irritation/sensitivity is gone you may go back to your normal regimen. Usually 7 days is good.

Hi! How soon after the Lactic Acid peel can I use my tretinoin?
Once any dryness has subsided (or 7 days) you may go back to your normal regimen.
When should you stop using tretinoin before doing a TCA peel? Week?
Please wait 4-5 days minimum. Many will go up to a week if their skin is sensitized from the retinoid.
Can I use vitamin c serum and peptide serum during the day after tca peel and at night can I use tretnoin?
