Yes. At Salon Greco our licensed estheticians evaluate your skin, medical history, and goals to choose a peel formula and strength appropriate for oily, dry, sensitive, or combination skin to minimize risk and maximize results.

Downtime varies by peel depth. Light peels have little to no downtime, medium peels may cause several days of peeling and redness, and deeper peels require longer recovery. Your esthetician will explain expected healing and provide aftercare to speed recovery.

Most clients benefit from a series of treatments. We typically recommend three to six peels spaced weeks apart, then maintenance sessions as needed. Personalized plans depend on skin goals, peel strength, and how your skin responds.

Most peels produce a mild stinging or warm sensation that eases quickly. We use calming protocols and monitor comfort throughout. For deeper peels, topical anesthetics or post-treatment soothing products may be used to manage discomfort effectively.

Avoid retinoids, waxing, and aggressive exfoliation for at least one week before treatment. Protect skin from sun exposure and follow any pre-peel instructions your esthetician gives to reduce irritation and ensure the best results.

Yes. Many clients combine peels with facials, microdermabrasion, or light therapies, but timing and compatibility depend on treatment depth. Your esthetician will design a safe schedule to avoid irritation and maximize benefits while coordinating advanced procedures if appropriate.
