Pre/Post Peel Homecare Protocol

Description

Description

•  Green Tea Citrus Cleanser with grapefruit, lemon, and yucca removes excess oils as the antioxidants bring the skin to life, giving it a radiant glow.
• Glycolic Cleanser with antioxidants encourages rapid cellular turnover to reveal fresh, healthy skin. Use in the morning to thoroughly remove dead skin cells.
• Retinol 2% Exfoliating Scrub/Mask with kojic is a powerful cellular turnover scrub with retinol (Vitamin A) and jojoba beads to clean, soothe, and polish the skin. The retinol encourages the breakup of blackheads and clogged pores, and jojoba beads gently exfoliate dead skin cells. Kojic lightens sun spots and scars left from blemishes.
• Glycolic/Retinol Pads with kojic break up surface cells to reveal fresh, healthy skin while allowing trapped oil to release and come to the surface. Kojic lightens sun spots and scars left from blemishes.
• Acai Berry Moisturizer with aloe and Co-Q10 is a powerful antioxidant and a great anti-aging moisturizer. It also heals and stimulates collagen as it hydrates the skin.
•  Sheer Protection SPF 30 with 13.5% zinc oxide is physical sunblock that is natural and comfortable to wear.

Skin Types

• The above protocol will work for most skin types, but we highly suggest that the aesthetician customize a homecare routine based on the client’s skin types and needs.

Post Peel Instructions

With glycolic and lactic peels, there should be little to no flaking; it is a micro peel and you do receive shedding, just at a microscopic level. Keep in mind with glycolic or lactic peels that it’s a series of peels to achieve your desired results. You do not necessarily have to discontinue the pre-peel care during these light peels. It is important that you always use a sunblock of at least SPF 15.

With salicylic or TCA peels, there is flaking. Every person is different on how much peeling or flaking he/she will receive. After a salicylic or TCA peel, it is important to follow these instructions.

Morning

1. Cleanse: Green Tea Citrus Cleanser
2. Hydrate: Acai Berry Moisturizer or Peptide Restoration Moisturizer
3. Protect: Sheer Protection SPF 30

Evening

1. Cleanse: Green Tea Citrus Cleanser
2. Hydrate: Acai Berry Moisturizer
