βDay of Chemical Peel - I went in for a normal facial, no extractions (YAY) and then the peel was a small cloth with a few passovers on my face. The worst part was the first wipe that had acetone and the smell was brutal. Immediately following I was red but no other major signs. I left with moisturizer and strict instructions to follow for the following days as my skin began to peel. 2 Days After - this is when the peeling began around my nose and my mouth. Nothing dramatic but I definitely started to feel the tightness around my face. 3 - 5 Days After - Truly when the fun started. I woke up and it seemed like the top layer of my skin started to come off overnight. She showed me a video on what this would look like but I was definitely not prepared. While this is not painful, it was SUPER itchy and the worst part is, you canβt pick it off. You have to just let it come off naturally so you donβt scar the fresh skin. This was more mental for me than anything because itβs hard to go out or see people.β
βEven though I have had a number of facials, I'll admit I was nervous to take the next step into advanced skincare territory. Fortunately, I knew that I was in good hands when Tray took the time to explain what to expect from the process. [...] Day 1: Feels like a slight sunburn, reapplying hydrocortisone cream every few hours Day 2: Beginning to peel around nasolabial folds and chin Day 3: Peeling on cheeks, beginning to peel on forehead, itchiest day Day 4: Peeling all over, itchiest around the eyes Day 5: Peeling on sides of face and neck Day 6: Peeling on neck Day 7: Mostly done peeling, finished up with a hydrating facialβ
