It is recommended the skin is primed for the chemical peel by using the home products for a minimum of 4 weeks. Then in clinic a chemical peel is done. Although it sounds so harsh as the skin would peel off it generally happens slowly with minimal scaling. Depending on the response either Microneedling with products or another chemical peel is done in clinic after another 4 weeks. It is suggested to use the home products in between and after peels. A final peel is done 6 months post all the treatments. This may be enough to keep the pigmentation down.
