Q&A

I do cosmetic needling every other day or so (0.25 mm). Do I need to wait to do so before or after this peel ?

You should wait at least 7 to 14 days after microneedling before doing a light to medium chemical peel, and up to 2 to 4 weeks if your skin is sensitive or you're planning a stronger peel. Monitor your skin's healing: If there's still redness, flaking, or sensitivity, wait longer.

Would this product be effective for dark spots on my hands?

Hello Anna, Thank you for your question. While we do offer several products that can be safely used on the body to help address specific skin concerns, it's important to note that these products have only been clinically tested and evaluated for use on the face. This means that while the ingredients are generally safe for use on larger areas of the skin, the product’s effectiveness and results have only been validated through facial application. Skin on the body can often differ in thickness, sensitivity, and oil production, so results may vary when used outside the intended area. I certainly hope this information helps. If you are interested in product to address your skin concerns, we’d be happy to recommend suitable products. Your skin’s safety and results are always our top priority! Kindly, Sandra

Does this work on melanated skin?

Hello Velda, Thank you for reaching out with your question. The PowerBright Dark Spot Peel is clinically proven to be effective across a wide range of skin tones and types, including Fitzpatrick types I–IV. However, as with any exfoliating treatment, individual results may vary depending on your skin's condition and tolerance. Please note that this product is not recommended for sensitive skin, as it is a high-active exfoliant and may cause irritation. If you have any other questions or would like personalized recommendations, please feel free to contact us--we’re happy to help! Kindly, Sandra

What percentage AHA, PHA and Tranexamate is in this? Thanks.

Hello Caitlin, Thank you for your question. At Dermalogica, we believe in being transparent about our ingredients and aim to give you as much helpful information as possible. We understand how important it is to know what you're using on your skin and truly appreciate your interest in our formulas. While we don’t share the exact percentages of individual ingredients—since that information is proprietary—we can tell you that the total concentration of our AHA + PHA blend, including Mandelic Acid, is 12%. This blend is carefully formulated to address your skin concerns. If you have any questions about which products might be best for your skin, we're always here to help! Kindly, Sandra

Can this be used at the same time as tretinoin or are they contraindicated?

Hello Michelle, Thank you for choosing Dermalogica. In general, we do not suggest layering more than one serum. Active ingredients work best when they have access to the skin, and some serum formulas create a barrier which may prevent a second serum from penetrating the skin. For maximum benefit, we recommend incorporating more than one into your routine by using one in the AM and one in the PM. In this case retinol will always be applied in the pm.
