Is the black peel really different from other peels? I'm curious if it's effective for treating acne and how long it might take for my skin to recover. Can you give me some insights on this?

  1. What is a Black Peel?

    • A black peel is a type of chemical peel that often includes activated charcoal. It differs from glycolic, salicylic, or lactic acid peels by its unique composition and exfoliating properties.
  2. Effectiveness of Black Peel for Acne Treatment

    • Black peels help treat acne by exfoliating dead skin cells and unclogging pores. They can be effective but may not be suitable for all skin types or severe acne cases.
  3. Skin Recovery Time After Black Peel

    • Recovery for a 21-year-old female typically takes about 5-7 days. Factors like skin type, peel strength, and aftercare can influence this timeline.
  4. Recommendations and Precautions

    • Consult a dermatologist before treatment. Follow aftercare instructions to promote healing and avoid complications. Seek medical advice if adverse reactions occur.

The itching is so intense that the skin becomes really red, and there's muscle pain too. I've tried using Fore Derm ointment and Absorb dusting powder, but nothing's helping. What should I do?
