Following a chemical peel Birmingham patients may have some flaking or peeling as the dead skin falls away. Depending on the level of the chemical peel, your skin may range from a light or darker pink as the new skin replaces the damaged skin. With light chemical peels, you may apply a specific moisturizer to minimize the flaking. Medium and deep peels often require more recuperation and healing.
