Planet Eden Glycolic Acid Peel Kit & Glycolic Pre-Peel Cleanser & Recovery Cream

BENEFITS of Glycolic Pre-Peel Wash with AHA and natural fruit acids.  Planet Eden's Glycolic Pre-Peel Cleanser is a AHA, vegetable derived, cleanser. Contains pharmaceutical grade Glycolic Acid (fermented sugar), and botanic extracts, to reduce the appearance of fine line and wrinkles for a firmer, more youthful, appearance. Organic fruits extracts of Apple, Bilberry, Lemon, Orange, Papaya and Grapefruit nurture and pamper your skin!Formulated in a base of pure Aloe Vera to offer advanced skin healing, hydration and support for dry, and mature, skin types. Deep cleans the skin while speeding up its ability to slough off the dead, dry, skin that starts to accumulate, on the surface, as the skin ages.  AHA's have long been used to improve the appearance of the pores, smooth the skin's surface, and rid the skin of any dull, dry, patchy appearance. The Pre-Peel wash will enable the glycolic acid peel to penetrate the skin and have a more successful peel. Recommend using at least 3 nights prior to using a peel.

Side Effects and Contraindications

FDA - Sun Sensitivity Alert Clients need to be aware that by using glycolic acid and other peeling products, your skin will be more photo-sensitive than normal. It is recommended that you use a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15, preferably SPF 30 or higher, after using skin peel products. The FDA recommends using an SPF for one week post-peel.

NORMAL SIDE EFFECTS:

* Swelling

* Redness/soreness of application area

* Rashing/flaking/peeling (peeling generally starts the 3rd-5th day)

* Temporary darkening of skin (once peeling starts these will (in most cases) dissapear). Exposing your skin to the sun after an acid application can cause temporary or possibly permaneant darkening of the skin.

* Frosting (TCA can cause this) of the skin

* Blemishes/acne may occur follwing a skin peel as the pores are being deeply cleansed by acids - this is NORMAL

*Sensitivity to the sun and other products - Other skin products may burn or feel uncomfortable to use immediately following a peel. 

It is extremely important to remember that a chemical peel is the willful application of an ACID to produce a controlled injury to the skin. By intentionally causing “damage”, ythe acids cause the outermost layers of the epidermis to slough off to reveal newer, fresher skin. WARNING: If you are at all unsure about any aspects of using this product, DO NOT proceed. By purchasing and using this product, you do so at your own discretion and assume all liability for the outcome.

YOU SHOULD NOT USE A CHEMICAL PEEL IF:

• You are currently taking Accutane or have done so within the past twelve months

• You are pregnant or nursing - consult your Dr.

• You have a tendency to form keloid scars

• You have a sexually transmitted disease such as herpes, HIV/AIDS, or a similar condition

• You are undergoing cancer treatments, including chemotherapy and/or radiation

• You do not understand the process of a peel, are not willing to follow the post peel regime, or do not take the time to properly educate yourself about which solution or solution strength should be used;

• You expect instant results - Skin peels are a progressive treatment and multiple applications are recommended to acheive a goal. 

• You have been treated with a hair-removal system in the past two to three days

• Skin Allergies

• Sunburn
