Downtime varies by peel selection and your skin. Most clients experience minimal dryness or light flaking, and we’ll review post-care to keep your skin comfortable.

Most clients have little to no downtime, but mild redness or warmth can happen and usually fades within a few hours.
Most clients don’t peel; if flaking happens, it’s usually light dryness around the nose or chin for 2–3 days.You may experience a light “flaking” but this is not always the case.

Avoid direct sun, strong actives/exfoliants, picking, and treatments like waxing or dermaplaning for three to five days. Physical exercise that causes sweating, heat, hot showers, saunas dry and wet, be mindful when you're cooking or opening your dishwasher or laundry dryer. Chlorine pools or hot tubs and outdoor landscaping or gardening.
Many clients notice brighter, smoother, more hydrated skin right away, with continued improvement over the next few days.
If possible, wait 24 hours; if needed sooner, keep it light and non-irritating. If you are wanting some coverage we recommend one of the Lira Clinical BB Cremes for buildable coverage and sun protection.
Hydrate, don’t pick, and wear SPF daily—gentle cleanser + moisturizer only.
