The required peel product is then applied for the designated contact time - all factors considered. Glytone's Rejuvenating Peel Pads are already conveniently saturated. If using a Rejuvenating Peel Gel, simply squeeze gel onto a gauze pad until adequately saturated to perform the entire peel at one time. Then repeat on the other side. Wipe across lower forehead, proceed down the nose, across each cheek and finish with the upper lip.
Some practitioners use two pads and do both sides of the face simultaneously.
The general rule for peeling around the eye area is to go no closer than the socket bone. The glycolic acid will seep closer to the eye as it sits on the skin. Accurate timing of your peel is very important. Remember that the peel time begins at the time of initial contact with the skin. It is not unusual to experience a slight stinging, tingling sensation or mild erythema lasting for several minutes.
