How to Prepare your skin for a Green Sea Peel appointment:

  • Pause Active Ingredients

    Discontinue use of retinol, retinoids, and exfoliating products with Salicylic Acid, Benzoyl Peroxide, Glycolic Acid, and other AHA/BHA acids at least 7 days before your appointment.

  • Postpone Recent Treatments

    Allow a minimum of two weeks after permanent makeup, waxing, sun exposure (tanning or sunbathing), Botox, or dermal fillers before scheduling a Green Sea Peel.

  • Contraindications

    This treatment is not recommended if you have any of the following conditions:

    * Active bacterial, viral, fungal, or herpetic infections

    * Open wounds or pre-existing inflammatory skin conditions

    * Known allergies to any of the treatment ingredients

    * Dermatitis (such as eczema or psoriasis)

    * Diabetes

    * Shellfish allergy

    * Sunburn

    Additionally, avoid scheduling a Green Sea Peel if you have taken Accutane within the past 12 months. Your safety and comfort are our priority; please consult with us if you have any questions about these contraindications before booking your appointment.

  • The Importance of Tyrosinase Inhibitors

    For optimal results and to reduce the risk of Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH), we recommend using tyrosinase inhibitors such as Vitamin C, Kojic Acid, Licorice Root, Azelaic Acid, Tranexamic Acid, or Arbutin for a few weeks before your facial treatment. These powerful ingredients help to brighten and even out skin tone, making your skin more receptive to the treatment while minimizing pigmentation concerns.

    If you need assistance in choosing the right tyrosinase inhibitor for your skin type and goals, feel free to reach out or visit us at the studio. Our team will guide you to the ideal product to ensure your skin is well-prepped and glowing!
