How long do chemical peel results last?
Instant glow, longer-term texture changes and how home care extends both.
Quick answer: The glow from a light peel lasts a few weeks. Improvements in pigmentation and texture from a course of peels can last months, provided you keep up SPF and a good routine.
Light peels
A Blue Peel Radiance or Stimulator Peel gives brightness that lasts around a month, which is why they are often repeated monthly.
Courses
Three or four peels a few weeks apart build longer-lasting change in tone and texture.
Deeper peels
Stronger peels like the ZO 3-Step give results lasting months.
Making it last
Daily SPF, vitamin C and a retinoid help maintain the result.
Common questions
How often can I have a peel?
Light peels every 2 to 4 weeks; stronger peels every 6 to 8 weeks or longer.
