Rhonda Allison and Tizo skincare products are sitting on a table. Best products after chemical peel
By Natalie Brunello May 5, 2025
Progressive peels are a fantastic way to refresh and resurface your skin, offering gentle and highly effective results. Unlike chemical peels, our progressive peels are a series of lighter, more frequent treatments. You can achieve gradual improvements without significant downtime. To get the most out of the treatment, it is key to follow a few simple post-care guidelines. Your Sanctuary Spa esthetician will help you care for your skin. Products For Aftercare The Sanctuary Spa Progressive Chemical Peel treatment uses Rhonda Allison chemical solutions to remove the top layer of your skin and stimulate the growth of new skin cells. We recommend using the included aftercare to support your skin’s healing process. The skincare routine is required for at least 5-7 days after your peel. Each product is vital to achieve properly healed skin and the ultimate benefits of the peel. It is important to be gentle with your skin and to avoid aggressive rubbing and picking.

So, you have made the decision to run a marathon- that’s amazing! Now, you’re probably gearing up for all the training ahead. Before you take off, ensure you include massage therapy in your training program. I know, it may seem a little unexpected, but hear me out. Incorporating regular Sanctuary Spa Signature Massages in your marathon preparation will help the whole process run smoother and far less painful. Runners swear by it. They have experienced fewer injuries and less of that dreaded "hobble walk." Regular massages are a game changer and may be the secret ingredient you need to thrive.

What is a Progressive Chemical Peel? For starters, a chemical peel is a resurfacing facial procedure that uses a chemical solution to remove the top layer of your skin. By removing dead skin and stimulating the growth of fresh, revived skin cells, a chemical peel accelerates cell turnover resulting in a smoother, more radiant appearance.
