Post care microdermabrasion and chemical peels
Slight redness and/or sensitivity may be experienced after a microdermabrasion or chemical peel procedure. This is quite normal and should subside after a few hours or a few days. We recommend you use post care products suggested to you by your esthetician or skin care professional in order to achieve maximum benefits.
