Side Effects and Contraindications

FDA - Sun Sensitivity Alert

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 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;
