Your Perfect Derma Peel Care Guide

General guidance only. Your specialist's personal advice always comes first.

Before your peel

• Pause retinoids and exfoliating acids for 5 to 7 days before your appointment.
• Avoid waxing, threading and sunburn for 1 week before.
• Tell us before your appointment if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have cold sores or broken skin, or have used isotretinoin (Accutane) in the past 6 months.

After your peel

• Peeling or flaking often begins a few days after treatment. Let it shed naturally and never pick or pull.
• Cleanse gently and moisturise generously.
• Wear broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every day and avoid direct sun.
• Avoid retinoids, acids, scrubs and other peels until your skin has fully settled, usually about 7 days.
• Avoid saunas, steam and heavy sweating for 48 hours.
