Frequently Asked Questions

Is this peel suitable for home use?

The 20% Lactic Peel is a professional-strength exfoliating treatment and should be used only as directed or under the guidance of a skincare professional.

Do I need to use a neutraliser?

Yes. This peel should always be followed by the Skin Matrix Lactic Peel Neutraliser to stop the exfoliating action safely.

Will my skin peel after using this product?

Some people may experience mild flaking or dryness following exfoliation, depending on their skin type and treatment frequency. Results vary from person to person.

How often should I use the peel?

Use only as directed by a skincare professional or according to the recommended treatment schedule.
