The Dr.Dennis gross peel pads have made SUCH a huge difference in my skin. They used to sell a bundle of all 3 strengths, and I used that to work up to the extra strength ones. The almost immediate glow it gives, and the long term decongestion is out of this world.

[@helloydl]

This is the video I’ve been looking for! Thank you!

[@loiswhitley5879]

Best video I have seen on at home chemical peels. Thanks.❤

[@vanoyiam2708]

Thank you so much for this video. I’m going to try the Dr. Dennis Gross universal daily peel as a at-home peel newbie, but first a trip to dermatologist before integrating this into my routine. Appreciate you

[@kmjdebay]

Stay on the look out for the 50% off Exuviance sales at Ulta. I usually stock up on the pads then. About $40 per kit the last time I purchased.

[@Whiteboard7]

Helpful video, thanks!

[@mollynavarro4101]

Dr Dennis gross peel pads are the best homemade peel pads on the market today!

[@susanmcf1]

I've been using the Paula's Choice AHA/BHA 10 minute weekly peel on my night off from tretinoin. It is very helpful for clearing up flaky skin from tretinoin. I find it improves my skin .

[@vickiemendoza9252]

Very informative! Thank you so much for doing this video! I've always wanted to do an at home chemical peel but was afraid to do it incorrectly. ☺

[@ry413]

Great video! I have been thinking about trying at-home chemical peels. This video is very helpful!

[@dr.jennyliu]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ingrid48]

I love the Dr Dennis alpha beta peel 1x week!! Skin fix makes a nice pad too👍

[@anharabdelraheem7343]

Thank you very much for your informative video; it immensely helped me. I was about to purchase a high-concentration peel from Amazon, and I realised after watching your video that I should be cautious. It is better to consult a dermatologist as I already have active acne, hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, and other issues. Although it is hard to find a good dermatologist, and I have already seen a dozen in two countries and never seen an improvement in my skin, I will try again.

[@lynnwilcoxson7]

Awesome😊❤ Thank you.

[@taniad2873]

Thanks for this video

[@boutiqueazzur1368]

Great explanations again, you are a pro 💕

[@lindseycassini1560]

Thanks for this video, very helpful 🙂 Would you say that PHAs should also not be used daily, or would those be fine? I was thinking for example to use a PHA serum in the mornings, and then, once a week use an AHA product, like the peel pads, or a leave on product.

[@elizabethmyers1328]

Thank you for a very informative video! I plan on purchasing either the Dr Dennis Gross or AlphaRet. When you break it down per treatment, the Exuviance is actually more expensive than the other two because it comes with 13 pads versus 30. I've had a series of three Skin Medica Revitalize Peels and was very pleased with the results. I'd like to do a weekly at-home peel though! Thanks for your great content!

[@dr.jennyliu]

That’s awesome let me know which one you end up trying

[@jackiem.259]

Thanks for this video it was super helpful. So if I wanted a peel for hyperpigmentation and maybe some congestion on my cheeks would I use the dr Dennis gross? Or exuviance? Would I need both?

[@toshcartersworld360]

Very very very insightful. Thank you so much I will deathly subscribing.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@katechipata9934]

Great video! Is it dangerous for someone with dry skin to use skin treatment that has more than 10% glycolic acid? I ask because I have dry & sensitive skin and interested in the Exuviance ones.

[@deborah972]

Hi dr jenny liu ,lovely video 😊❤ xx

[@deborah972]

What is the best serum skincare let me know thank you 😊xx

[@rvmg6297]

Hi Doctor! Should I stop my tretinoin before getting chemical peel? How many weeks before getting chemical peel?

[@gatalinda12001]

Very informative video! Can I do a chemical peel (professional or at home) if I have rheumatoid arthritis?

[@gtan307]

Coincidentally, I’m watching this as I’m waiting for my 10 minutes waiting time for my Paula’s Choice 25% AHA+2%BHA Peeling solution 😅

[@cashelgawinandthefamily1071]

How about the skinfix exfoliation pad !? Is it ok as there is no step 2 like dr.Dennis gross

[@natalicarellano4285]

Do you feel aha and bha is good for acne prone one night a week instead of the retinoid?! It seems like I would have to take a lot of days off my retinoid before and after. Is it possible to just take one day break after the more mild universal peel or is it best to stick with retinoid for Acne prone

[@callie6154]

Would this be a good option for back acne with darkspots?

[@ellienailee4634]

Hi, what do you think of the Lamer Micro peel?

[@kennethAmos8929]

iSclinical peeling system is my favorit 😃

[@CrystalNicole13]

Are these safe to use while on Tretinoin? Once a week maybe?

[@katechipata9934]

I'm guessing that the Neutralizer minimizes any irritation, sorry for the stupid question but I had to ask.

[@tamarastrose]

Please I can buy it at Sephora?

[@tigerprincess11]

I understand not to get this in the eyes/ mucus membranes, but can this be used for under eyes, or is it too harsh?

[@MILFMAN-yg3jg]

Hello Dr Jenny Liu can u do a video on acne / exfoliating pads cause I like to use stridex, clearasil and other drugstore acme pads and I see that peter thomas roth and first aid beauty have some so I would love your opinion on then also are there cheaper alternatives of these pads cause unfortunately they r out of my budget

[@KarlaO1986]

Save up for the Dr Gross ones. So worth it

[@Pinkhair332]

Hi doc, i surprise you dont review platinum skincare. They have a great deal of following cult.

[@ginalacatus1880]

How about the side effects, aritmia

[@FairyRosee_]

I do these at night a couple times a week. Should I wash my face the next morning? Or can i just put my makeup right on top? It looks SO GOOD the next day I hate to mess with it.

[@lauriep3334]

Thank you for your skin care tips. Why did you have a timer on the top of your video screen today. It is distracting.

[@pamwiththebadhair5118]

Can you put it on your lips?

[@MMM41086]

If you get flaky from retinol, should you use a peel to help get rid of the flakes? Or just moisturize until the flakiness is gone?

[@dr.jennyliu]

The latter

[@leslierosa9102]

I’m glad u asked i was wondering the same

[@OliaKonJo]

I exfoliate twice a week. That's enough for my skin. No peels. I would rather use retinoid more often than do peels and skip retinoids

[@nayquancotto597]

Paula choice peeling is good for melasma

[@gilda3372]

What’s the name for Paula’s choice peeling? Which one is good for melsama? Link please

[@vedantraghuram5052]

Dr Dennis gross no.1

[@Phetsbackyardgarden]

I am allergic to Retinol. It made my face blushish brown. Then my doctor prescribed me the hydroquinone. It made my skin even darker. Finally, I did the fraxel Laser. I only did one session and the doctor said no more. For over three days, my face was oozing clear liquid. It was literally dripping!! This fraxel made it worst! That was more than 12 years ago. Since then, I just apply mineral sunscreen. I have dark spot and acne scars. I am so afraid to try anything more.

[@gaumatabantha5930]

Same here with me.😥i tried all of the treatement and at last pico laser but i couldn't help it made me more worse than before

[@Phetsbackyardgarden]

@@gaumatabantha5930 I am so sorry you had bad experience as well. I won’t be trying anything new as I am still traumatized

[@VV-ry1cs]

I’m so sorry to hear that - that must’ve been traumatic to a degree for you. I’d be upset if my treatments made my problems worse. I hope your skin is doing much better all these years later.

[@nayquancotto597]

Peeling is good for melasma

[@cfvcafrava3162]

Hi what are your thoughts about the peeling solution from the ordinary?

[@dr.jennyliu]

It’s fine to use but I like peeling pads as they are much more user friendly and easier to apply

[@cfvcafrava3162]

I’ll take your advice, thanks for replying.

[@lkpnda287]

Dr dennis gross has fragrance and alcohol in top ingredient. I’d try the gentle but not the other 2 🫣

[@KarlaO1986]

They have no fragrance.
