Your path to radiant skin with our Ultra Peel begins one week before your appointment. Remember to speak with your physician or Dr. David before stopping any prescription medications. Strictly avoid alcohol and pause blood-thinning supplements to protect your skin. Please pause all retinoids, active peeling acids, and acne topicals to protect your skin barrier, and arrive bare-faced. Plan for a clinical and social downtime window of three to ten days. While you will look normal at first, light flaking and peeling will begin around day three, particularly around the mouth. Make sure to have a gentle cleanser and a rich moisturizer ready, and never pull at the peeling skin. If you have any other questions or concerns, contact our team at Magnolia Skin Center.
