Question:
My sister recently had a chemical peel which made her skin look sun burned during the process. Will I look like that for long? Answer:
Redness, or erythema, following a skin resurfacing procedure is part of the normal healing process. For a medium depth chemical peel such as 35% TCA, the redness usually subsides after 10-14 days. For deeper resurfacing, such as CO2 laser, the redness lasts 2-4 weeks. In general, makeup can be applied to camouflage the redness once the skin has re-epithelialized. |
