My resurfacing was in early November. As a maintenance issue, how soon can I (should I) get a Vitalize Peel? I thought I remember you saying a peel does better on fresher skin so I definitely want to get the most from the peels. Also, how soon after peel can I get Botox (scheduled 4/6)?
you are safe to get a peel now and you are safe to get a peel right after botox so long as the botox is done on a separate day as the peel. s.

Dr. Lam, I am scheduled for my peel on March 26th. Not sure if I should get the Vitalize Peel (which I've had in the past) or try the stronger Rejuvenize Peel. Any suggestions? Thanks, Donna
honestly i don't know too much between the two. i think you should be fine though. s.
