Male chemical peel clients

How long to you advise your male clients to wait to shave after a mild progressive chemical peel? How long before the peel should they stop shaving? I have done facials on men but I'm just now getting a few calls for chemical peels.

Hi Nicole

I have my guys shave in the morning the day before their peel and ask them to wait 5 days after. I use PCA peels which are not super strong but if you are using a higher % acids you may want to check with the manufacturer.

Thank you both that is basically what I was thinking I just wanted to get a second opinion.
