How often can coral peeling be done?
As you might guess, often coral peeling cannot be done – a deep effect is repeated no earlier than two months later, and softer exfoliation can be done once every 28 days. The frequency of sessions, as well as the intensity of coral peeling, is determined by the cosmetologist on an individual basis.

Rules for skin care after coral peeling
The rehabilitation period after coral peeling is 5-10 days, accompanied by reddening of the skin, with possible subsequent darkening of the treated areas and the formation of crusts (or scales), which begin to fall off on the 3rd-5th day. The process may take 4-6 days.
After peeling, you must follow the instructions of the beautician and use the cosmetics recommended by him.
The general rules are:
the first two days it is necessary to wash only with warm water;
on the third day, when the skin begins to peel off, you need to use a light moisturizer (not greasy);
в течение двух недель после процедуры перед выходом на улицу обязательно применение крема с высоким SPF — стандартная рекомендация после любого профессионального (да и домашнего) пилинга.
