Question 1

More time: If you are still red you need to give your treatment more time.

Question 3

my mother did the vi peel and a large rash developed on her neck. she went to the er and they gave her prednisone. can this rash form a scar?

Accepted Answer

Not Likely: It is not likely.  Vi peel is a chemical peel that often causes an inflammatory reaction as the superficial "burn" removes superficial skin damage.  Should be all good in 3 weeks .  Might need some pre-peel Prednisone before next procedure.  The peel is meant for all fitz types.  Have her see the peel prescribing doctor soon to evaluate.

Question 4

has anyone tried a jessner peel and did not get results?

Accepted Answer

Depends: A jessner peel is an effective light chemical peel which exfoliates and can reduce hyperpigmentation . As it is a light peel , you should have your physician evaluate the results and determine the condition of your skin as well as making a diagnosis for what would be the best course of action .

Question 5

facial fillers vs chemical peel.  which gives better results?

Accepted Answer

Different results: The best option depends on what you are trying to address.  Peels improve the tone and texture of the skin and will improve fine lines and wrinkles.  Fillers are used for deep lines and wrinkles and/or the augmentation of areas of the face which need more volume (nasolabial folds, lips, etc).  Seek consultation with an experienced facial plastic surgeon for personalized recommendations.

Return to sender: Any procedure that pricks or peels the skin has the potential for serious infection, fever blisters or skin loss.  Return to see the performing physician as soon as possible.  Digital photos and phone review could be completed for immediate peace of mind.  Could be normal healing...But review is recommended.

Unlikely: There is no evidence that using a banana peel has any whitening properties. You could use some over-the- counter products that have some effects like white strips. Or have them professionally bleached, home or office or both. Kor material and method is superior.
