- Description
Description
For: Dry, Normal, Sensitive, Oily, Pigmented and Acne skin types.
INDICATIONS: Re-freshening of the skin’s appearance for ALL Fitzpatrick skin types. Low
irritation factor due to larger molecular size and high activity due to high pk rating. Improvement of
fine lines and wrinkles, dermal melasma, uneven skin tone, post inflammatory pigmentation and
roughly textured skin. Antibacterial activity of Mandelic and Azelaic acids makes this an excellent
course for acne vulgaris (inflammatory and non-inflammatory).
MANDELIC USAGE:
• Treating stubborn acne. Many patients can control their acne with Mandelic acid without the
need for antibiotics or excessively irritating products.
• Reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Dramatic improvement (as with a glycolic treatment) but
without the irritation or post-inflammatory pigmentation often seen with other AHA acids.
• Rapidly improve skin texture and sustain the effect over several months.
• Reducing pigmentation, brown spots and large freckles.
AZELAIC USAGE:
• Treating mild to moderate acne (both comedonal and inflammatory).
• Antibacterial acne treatment which works by stopping growth of skin bacteria that causes
acne and by keeping the pore follicles clear.
• Rosacea treatment (in lower percentages) due to its ability to reduce inflammation.
• Skin pigmentation treatment including Melasma and post-inflammatory pigmentation –
particularly those with darker skin types.
• Alternative to hydroquinone due to its Tyrosinase inhibition properties (reducing melanin
production).
PRE-TREATMENT: To exfoliate and flatten the stratum corneum, pre-treatment is truly important.
For a minimum of two weeks, begin and end each day by washing with a pH acidic cleanser. If you
have pigmented skin, or are a darker Fitzgerald skin type, apply a tyrosine inhibitor such as our
Fade Bright serum, immediately after cleansing. Apply an anti-oxidant such as High Octane
Vitamin C, and an SPF 30+ cream each day. In the evening apply Retinol (.10, .20 or .30),
RetinA™ or a Glycolic Serum to gently prime the skin for the peel solution.
POST PEEL: Mandelic is a low-irritation acid and post care will be minimal. Keep your skin
moisturized with a quality, healing product. We recommend Emu oil or a mixture of Emu oil and
Pure Hyaluronic Acid. **Mixing 1 pump of Regenerate EGF (epidermal growth factor) into your
healing product will boost your epidermal regeneration after the peel.
PRECAUTIONS:
• Check with your doctor before use if you are pregnant.
• Never apply another transdermal product during a chemical peel (No Emu oil until
neutralization is complete!)
• Never use a chemical peel if you have been/are-using accutane in the past 6 months.
• Never apply a peel after another facial exfoliating product (scrubs of any type).
• Stop using Retin-a at least 2 days before performing a peel.
• Keep the Peel Solution at least a quarter of an inch away from the eyes and mucus
membranes.
• If severe skin irritation occurs, remove the product by rinsing with cool water and consult a
physician.
• Do not apply to irritated, sensitive skin or skin with open wounds or after extraction.
• Do not expose your face to the sun for 24 hours before or after the application of the
chemical Peel. Then use a minimum SPF 30 on a daily basis.
• Do not apply the Peel to skin that has been waxed or shaved within 24 Hours.• Slight reddening of the skin may occur for a limited period of time especially with sensitive
skin types.
USAGE: Mandelic & Azelaic Peel 22 may be applied weekly to keep skin exfoliated and refreshed.

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS:
• Follow PRE-TREATMENT for 2 weeks for best results. Dark and pigmented types use FB
serum.
• Apply your TEST patch at least 24 hours prior to peel to check for allergies or excessive
irritation.
• Cleanse the skin with a deep cleanser.
• Apply layer of Prep A (or highest percentage alcohol) and let air dry.
• Pour a small amount of peel solution into medicine cup.
• Fold a gauze pad in half and dip into solution, saturating pad.
• Fold gauze in half again and give one GOOD squeeze to remove excess solution.
• Get a timer and set it for desired peel time. (see chart above).
• Apply peel in a HORIZONTAL motion across the entire face/neck.
• Apply peel again, this time in a VERTICAL motion across the entire face/neck. *This is to
ensure the best coverage possible. (The cheek, lip and nose areas are the most sensitive, so
they should be done last to avoid excess irritation—Avoid eye and mucus membrane areas).
*Your skin should not be dripping wet! Just wipe it on like you would any toner. *A
stinging/itching sensation is normal when using the Peel Solution, but a very mild sensation
to no sensation at all is also acceptable as individual tolerances differ. Eurethma is very
uncommon with Peel 22. Watch for any redness and neutralize acid with a dab of water if
necessary.
• When time has ended apply Neutralizer and/or rinse with cool water.
• Pat skin dry and follow with a plain moisturizer, Hyaluronic 100 or Emu oil are excellent
choices. (Now is not the time for any active ingredients a.k.a. glycolic, retinol etc..)
• *Make sure that you use a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30. (Because this product may
make your skin more sensitive to the sun, be certain you have adequate sunscreen protection
while using this product and for a week afterwards). *per FDA
