There is not much you need to do to prepare for your peel. During your consultation, we may recommend using a retinoid cream such as Retin-A before your peel to shorten your treatment time and speed the healing process. Do not exfoliate your skin or utilize treatments like waxing, electrolysis, or depilatory creams for a week before your treatment. You'll also need to stop using anti-aging or anti-acne medications and plan your peel treatment with enough time to fully heal before any important social events.
