Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Glycolic Peel.

A Glycolic Peel appointment typically takes around 30 to 45 minutes, including consultation, cleansing, application and neutralization. Time varies by peel strength and any added calming treatments. Expect brief redness afterward and immediate return home after service.

Many people with sensitive skin can tolerate low‑strength glycolic treatments, but a patch test and professional assessment are essential. We may use reduced concentrations or alternative peels to minimize irritation while still improving tone.

One peel often delivers an immediate glow, but a series of three to six peels spaced two to four weeks apart is recommended for long‑term improvement in texture, pigmentation, and fine lines.

You can usually wear makeup 24 to 48 hours after a glycolic peel, depending on sensitivity and peel depth. Use gentle, mineral-based products and avoid exfoliating actives for at least a week to protect the renewing skin.

Common immediate effects include mild redness, stinging, and light peeling as treated layers shed. Rare complications include prolonged irritation or pigment changes; following post-care and sun protection reduces risks. Contact us if symptoms worsen or persist.
