Before a peel: prepare the skin

Professional guidance on Before a peel: prepare the skin, with practical precautions and no medical diagnosis.

Observe before deciding

Ask about current comfort, recent exposure, active products, known reactions and the ability to follow aftercare. Use descriptive observations and postpone when a finding is inflamed, painful, damaged or unexplained.

What professionals should know

The appropriate choice depends on the cosmetic objective, the complete formula, concentration, pH, contact time, skin condition and intended setting. A percentage alone never predicts the full effect.

  • Confirm the exact product, batch and current instructions.
  • Assess visible skin condition and reported history without diagnosing.
  • Prepare application, timing, endpoint and aftercare before starting.
  • Stop and seek suitable advice if a reaction is unusual, severe or persistent.

A measured professional approach

Read the current instructions before use, document the product and observed skin condition, prepare every required step and use only the application method specified for that reference.

Documentation supplied with every peel

Every IDEALDERM peel is supplied with a detailed protocol covering the stages and contact time in the language of the order, for example FR, EN, DE, ES, IT or NL. The current protocol for the exact reference takes priority over this general guide.
