Your First Visit
First Time Getting Chemical Peel?
Your first peel visit begins with your skin history and the concern you want assessed. At our Renton clinic, discuss the proposed product, area, risks and recovery before deciding on treatment. A consultation and a procedure are distinct appointments; confirm which you are booking.

A useful first appointment establishes your skin concern, the proposed product and an aftercare plan you can follow. Arriving prepared helps you decide whether to proceed or allow more time for assessment.
Bring a concise skin history
List your current products, prescriptions, recent procedures and previous reactions. Describe the concern you want assessed and any important event dates. The clinician needs this context before recommending a product; a peel is not selected by strength or price alone.
Confirm what happens at this visit
Check whether you have booked assessment or treatment. Before consenting, ask for the named peel, area, full price, realistic limits and recovery guidance. Preparation and application differ by product, so do not expect every peel to use the same steps or aftercare kit.
Know how to obtain help afterward
Request written instructions, a contact for concerns and a review point. Ask when skincare, makeup and other procedures can resume. Do not pick or force peeling, and follow your clinician’s care plan. Decide on further sessions after assessing the first response rather than assuming a fixed series.

During Your Treatment
Assessment and options
Your provider reviews the concern, skin history and suitability. Ask what a peel can reasonably change, what it will leave unchanged and whether another evaluation is needed.
Product and area confirmation
Confirm the named peel, exact area, full price and recovery expectations before consenting. Different products are not interchangeable procedures.
Preparation and application when appropriate
If treatment proceeds, the clinician follows the protocol for the selected product and monitors your response. Tell the provider about discomfort rather than assuming stronger stinging means a better result.
Aftercare and follow-up
Obtain product-specific written instructions, a contact for concerns and a review plan. Ask about makeup, skincare, sun protection and additional procedures.
After Your Treatment
Follow the written care plan for the product used, including cleansing and moisturizing instructions.
Do not pick or force peeling. Ask the clinic about unexpected irritation, swelling or other concerns.
Confirm when makeup, usual skincare and other procedures can resume; avoid assuming all peels have the same recovery.
Discuss your response before booking further treatments or purchasing a series.
