The Dreaded Client Statement
As an esthetics professional, if you have been doing chemical peels for any period of time, you will eventually have a client say this dreaded statement:
" nothing happened", "my skin did not peel".

The situation can and does feel somewhat uncomfortable and you feel as a professional that you are being questioned about your skill.

Did you know that skincare products formulated with natural plant extracts or organic ingredients will not always appear "clear" or "white'?
You probably never thought about the finished product or even took a look at the product. Most people assume the skincare product should appear white or completely clear, as with a serum, in its final formulation.
Plants have color, even in a product
What many people over-look is that many plant extracts that are used in natural/organic products have a visible color or shade to the extract. For example, green tea extract is not clear in color. And surprisingly, white tea extract and white ......

There are many chemical peel products being sold incorporating additional "active or action ingredients" in the peel formula.
For example, there are chemical peel formulations that combine glycolic acid with peptides in the peel formula.
We know that glycolic acid has positive effects on the skin and we know that various peptides have positive effects on the skin.
As per the XYZ company treatment instructions, we are to apply the glycolic acid peel with peptides on the skin for 3-5 minutes. Then we neutralize the glycolic acid peel, and then we thoroughly rinse the skin.

Best Practices: Improving Dyschromia
Hyperpigmentation | Melasma
Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation
When an aesthetic professional does not achieve the desired results that the client expected, the aesthetic professional will try to use a different peel, or use a stronger peel, or apply more coats, or leave the peel on longer or give peels more frequently.
It is not just about the "peel".
When it comes to improving the appearance of all pigmentation conditions, it is mandatory to have the client begin using skin lightening products prior to having a series of peels and to continue using the .........

1. Use at least 2-3 pumps of Hydro Cleansing Oil
First, pump at least 2-3 pumps of Hydro Cleansing Oil into the palm of your hand. Gently rub your palms together to disperse the oil. You need sufficient oil for the cleansing properties to work. If you try to save by using a small drop of oil then you may find that the layer of oil is too thin to clean the skin properly.
2. Massage the Hydro Cleansing Oil into the skin
Next, moisten your palms with warm water from the faucet and begin to gently massage the oil into the skin with the tips of the fingers in gentle small circles for at least 1-2 minutes. Focus on the nose, chin and .........

Question To Ask Your Client or Customer?
Can you use your cleanser without applying a moisturizer after it?
Majority of clients and consumers will say "No". Many will state that there is no way that they can cleanse/wash their face and not apply some type of cream or lotion to their face. They say after cleansing, they "have to" apply something.
Ask Yourself Why?
They are not applying the moisturizer for "its functional ingredients", but to counter the effects of using the improper cleanser.

Peel Protocols are instructions or steps that are provided to the user on how to apply a particular chemical peel(s). Protocols are meant to give the user application steps. Peel Protocols are not meant to educate someone about a chemical peel and do not replace chemical peel training. For example, there are individuals who read peel protocols but do not know how to adjust the application or sequence of that acid peel for a particular skin type or condition. That is where chemical peel training comes in.

One of the most common question esthetic professionals ask when it comes to applying chemical peels is:
How long do I leave the peel on the skin?
This question is asked because that is what most skincare companies teach. There is much confusion as to how long a glycolic acid peel or lactic peel is left on the skin between one company versus another. While knowing the application time is an important factor, this is not the most important factor. Knowing the "time' is not an absolute. It is a generic guideline.
Majority of the companies fail to teach about "end points". These are referred to as visual end points.
The questions to ask ............
