A member asked:
I had a 30% salicylic acid chemical peel done last tuesday and did not stop using my retin a (tretinoin) prior to the treatment. i got a much deeper peel. help!

That would occur: First stop the Retin A There is really no curtailing the peel at this point possibly a hydrocort cream would give some comfort. Its important to speak to your doctor asap.
