Get answers to common questions about Enlighten Peel.

The Enlighten Peel uses targeted chemical agents to accelerate exfoliation and inhibit melanin overproduction, gradually lightening melasma and dark spots. Results appear over multiple sessions and through the 28-day regenerative cycle; consistent SPF and maintenance maximize lasting improvement.

Yes — when administered by our experienced clinicians, the Enlighten Peel can be safely customized for most skin types. We perform a thorough consultation and patch testing to minimize post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation risk and adjust peel strength and aftercare.

Treatment plans vary, but most clients need 1–3 sessions spaced about 28 days apart to see significant improvement. Severity of melasma, acne scarring, and sun damage determines frequency; your provider will recommend a personalized schedule and expectations.

Downtime is minimal to moderate: expect redness, tightness, and light peeling typically peaking days 3–7. Most clients resume activities quickly. Visible improvements unfold over the 28-day cycle, with clearer, brighter skin appearing after the first cycle.

Avoid retinoids, exfoliants, recent sun exposure or tanning, and waxing for at least one week prior. Disclose medications and skin history. Follow pre-care instructions provided by your clinician to reduce irritation risk and optimize results.

Aftercare includes gentle cleansing, soothing moisturizer, and strict daily broad-spectrum SPF. Avoid picking, heavy exfoliation, hot baths, and vigorous exercise for several days. Use clinician-recommended calming serums and attend follow-ups to ensure healing and maintain results.
