Flaky skin

I had diamond peel done on Monday but am peeling really bad 5 days after the procedure. I have an extremely sensitive skin and I was asked to use Elidel (anyone heard of this?). The scaling is better though I am still flaking all over. The problem is my skin feels really tight and hot senstation with the use of elidel. I use a non-chemical sunblock that makes all the peeling skin more visible though less red. Am currently using cetaphil facial cleanser but read in the archive board that many people reacted badly with this mild cleanser. I want to use water only to wash my face but can it remove sunscreen???

Re: Flaky skin

Did the chemical peel do any improvement in red marks?

Re: Flaky skin

It's not a chemical Peel but microdermabrasion though not using the crystals...instead it's called a diamond peel. It did make the skin "cleaner" though the acne marks will take several diamond peel for improvement.
