WHY NOT WORK OUT AFTER A CHEMICAL PEEL?

THERAPEUTIC ACNE TREATMENT CHICO CA   916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC


Even a light chemical peel can cause the upper layer of skin (stratum corneum) to separate from its deeper layer. This is normal. It is the nature of a chemical peel. However, working out to the point of sweating can cause water to accumulate in that separated space, which can lead to blistering and potential hyperpigmentation (skin discoloration).




Another factor that can lead to hyperpigmentation is body heat especially for those who are prone to hyperpigmentation or suffer from melasma (a type of skin discoloration) . Regulating your body temperature for 48 hours following a professional peel will help maximize your results!
