How does it feel?
Some clients may feel slight burning, stinging or itchiness, which should only last a few minutes after the peel is rinsed off.
Is it safe?

Is there downtime?
After this treatment, there is only minimal downtime. The skin may have some redness and sensitivity, though this will only last a few hours. There will be some additional peeling and flaking of the skin, which could happen for up to 7 days. As the skin may be sensitive, it is best to avoid direct sunlight and avoid exercise for 24 hours after.
When will I see a result?
Your skin will feel smooth, soft and will glow after the first treatment, though most clients will need between 4 to 6 sessions to see the best results in their skin depending on their desired outcome. This treatment can be done every 2 to 4 weeks depending on how the skin reacts.
