Sun Exposure After a Chemical Peel: How to Protect Your New Skin

A chemical peel unveils fresh, renewed skin, and protecting that delicate new skin from the sun is one of the most important steps in your recovery.

Q: Can I go in the sun after a peel?
A: Sun exposure should be strictly avoided for at least one week after a chemical peel, as new skin is extremely vulnerable to UV damage. Daily broad-spectrum sunscreen is essential during the entire recovery period.
