Six Star Peel

The Six Star Peel Mini has less peeling and only slight flakiness. It starts to peel later rather than sooner and less units and dosage are used. This means the results aren't as fantastic as the Six Star Peel Full Version but are more effective than a no downtime. The Full is equivalent to 3 minis.

You can't wear makeup the same day after the procedure as you need to leave on the solution for 6 hours. But the next day you can. Just make sure the makeup is PEG free.

Keep out of the sun for 2 weeks post procedure. Don't peel the skin manually let it peel naturally. Reapply SPF twice a day for 2 weeks post procedure.

 For 1-2 weeks post procedure your skin will experience symptoms of sunburn (redness) and purging (acne coming to the surface, this will subside after the purging is done). You may experience if you have acne underneath the skin a phenomena known as purging which will clear in 1-2 weeks post procedure. This is the skins way of clearing everything out.

Don’t wax anything where the treatment is performed including eyebrows for 2-3 weeks post procedure, if you wax it will tear the skin.
After your procedure. Do not continually touch your skin unless you are performing your aftercare routine.Do not sweat or go swimming until 3-7 days have past from time of completed peeling.
You can still wear makeup post procedure during peeling as the top layer of skin is inactive and forms a barrier between pollutants.
 If you have work/uni that requires some outdoor activities you must wear a brimmed hat, sunnies and slather your SPF on and actively persist to avoid the sun. Even if you are indoors you still must wear SPF as light rays bounce off surfaces. If you can visibly see in front of you— there is presence of UV light that will damage your skin.

After 2-4 Weeks Depending on Condition of Your Skin.

This type of treatment should be performed every 6-8 weeks. 

We recommend 1-5 sessions until the skin is cleared and maintenance no downtime treatments to keep up the results.

After your procedure, you may notice that your skin becomes flushed as proteins react with the acids to promote natural desquamation. This process is normal and can last from a few hours to several days, coinciding with increased collagen production. It’s essential to protect your skin during this time:

• Sun Protection:
  Even indoors or on cloudy days, UV radiation can trigger hyperpigmentation. Apply SPF every 2-3 hours during peak sunlight (ideally twice a day) for 7-14 days post-procedure.
• Avoid Manual Peeling:
  Let the skin shed naturally. Manually peeling can damage deeper layers, leading to hyperpigmentation that may take 4-12 weeks to resolve.
• Dryness and Flakiness:
  Expect some dryness and flakiness about a week after the peel—this is a normal part of the skin’s renewal process.

Following these guidelines will help ensure a smoother recovery and more even, radiant skin.
