Questions and Answers

i just purchased this deal and i’m excited! i’ve already requested my 4 appts (plus additional treatments) on the website just in case they book up. i hear this place is awesome!!!

Good morning. Would you know if they see male clients? (I’d like to purchase for my father). Thanks!

And might you know the strength (%-wise) of the glycolic acid formulation? Thanks!
is it only for face or can i use it for my back?
would this treatment be appropriate for the neck/chest area?? I have some issues with sun damage. thanks

Good Morning Groupies!
These are all excellent questions.
Stacey, to play it on the safe side, it is suggested that you consider a different procedure.
Bree, this procedure is male friendly, so bring your pops! This procedure is 47% glycolic.
Muge and Janice, this glycolic peel is only meant for the face.
Hope this helps!

I have had these before and they have been the best thing for my rosacea prone skin. I am knocked up now and wondering if it’s safe. Obvi, I will call my dr but perhaps you get this question a lot already.

Hi,
I’m also super interested in this treatment.
I have some acne issues, and so in the last year I did a series of laser acne treatment. I’m due for another touch-up treatment at the end of april. Are there any chemicals that would be harmful for the laser treatment? Also. ts there a certain amount of time I should allow myself between the peel and the treatment?
thanks

I’m in middle of the long process of getting laser hair removal on my chin and lip. Would this procedure be safe for me? I get the laser done about every 5 weeks, would it be better at a certain time in this cycle? Or not at all?
So are the 4 treatments scheduled over a space of time, not all in one session I assume. (sorry it’s probably a stupid questions, I’ve never gotten one of these). How often do you wait in between for follow-up treaments? THanks
thanks for the info Sarah!!!!!!!!! Will still purchase……I’m sure my face can use the help & it’s a fabulous deal!!!!!

Hey guys!!
No problem Janice! For the rest of you, hang in tight, we’ll have some answers up soon :)

I am cookies! Let’s talk Peel’s. Here goes – a big NO to the person doing laser treatments/Pro-Active/Pregger’s (there is 47% glycolic 2% salicylic). Just not a great idea so let’s do the safety dance. Also, you cannot do the peel’s if you are allergic to aspirin.
This treatment is for the face ONLY. It is done sitting and takes 20 minutes. You should do these peel’s every 2 weeks to maximum results. You will be glowing.
Ciao for Now and book online! www.boomboombrowbar.com. It’s the best deal in town.
Boys are welcome – the cuter the better!
Will this treatment help areas with ingrown hairs (on chin/neck)?
Hi. I couldn’t find a detailed description for the Cookies and Cream, the Cup ‘o’ Java, and the Tropical blend flavors. Where should I look for an ingredients list for them?
Sorry never mind, meant to post this for the side deal (got re-directed to this page after sign in). Will re-post on the correct deal.
You can peel on all skin types, ethnicities, ages…we are not discriminatory at the Boom. You name it we can do and even Rosacea peep’s too.
It’s super easy and safe!

I am getting a facial at the beginning of February — how long should I wait after that to do these treatments?? Or do you suggest that I cancel the facial for now and do these treatments first?
Does a peel help with clogged pores? That is probably the biggest problem for me.
Can more than one person use the Groupon? Ex: Can I buy one Groupon and use 2 sessions and have my fiance use the other 2?
I assume that if a Proactive user is a no-no, so too would be a faux Proactive user (using Acne Free)? Can one cease use of these products ahead of receiving treatment?
hey guys! i just got this for me and two friends—so excited. question—how long does it take groupon to charge your credit card? mine still says its processing!?
Hi there,
Great deal! I have moderate, dry rosacea on my cheeks and reactive, very sensitive skin — does this sound like something I should try, or avoid?
Thanks for your time!
Just some info for those of you that may be shy about your beauty treatments. This place is very small and the seats they have for eyebrow waxing (and I would assume these peels too) are right at the front of the store, with no privacy. That doesn’t bother me and this sounds like a great deal, but just a head’s up!

Some questions that I can answer :)
Lindsay B, today’s Groupon is non-transferable so one person will be enjoying themselves 4 peels. In this case, you will have to purchase 2 for you and you fiance.
Bobby B, hang tight! If it’s still processing in a few hours, contact support@groupon.com and they will get you all taken care of!
Best,

Great for ingrowns and clogged pores….excellent exfoliation.
You can schedule your appt now and still do your facial.
I haven’t gotten a facial in a long, long time, do I need to get a facial if I get the peel?
Malynda - having trouble making appointments online-is the site having problems bc of all the traffic?
Hi Malynda, Just wondering how long would it take my face to recover from the glycolic peel?
Does a glycolic peel work for dark skin? I have some hyperpigmentation too.
Hi I have never done anything like this before, not any kind of facial. I read online that there can be a recovery of 2-3 days, where your skin is red and peely—is this the case? What kind of recovery is there usually, and what are the effects you are recovering from?
I got a peel a long time ago from a dermatologist and when I left that place, I was noticed because my skin looked so good. That’s my story and im sticking to it. lol I had no recovery period. My skin looked great.
how is this diff from microdermabrasion?

I am new to the “Glycolic Peel” world – what exactly does the treatment include and what kind of results can I expect?
I want to pay for this with an AMEX gift card I was given for Christmas. Is that possible?

Hi Kate,
Anything in that regard, your going to want to ask support@groupon.com or call 877-788-7858 and they will help you out!

I just bought this Groupon and was wondering if I could use 2 times and give the other 2 times to a friend to use?
I have the same question as Pareeta. I have dark skin (African_American) and hyperpigmentation issues – will glycolic peels work for me?
I have the same question as Sheila with an additional question. Can the percentage of the glycolic peel be adjusted for African American Skin? I was reading up on percentages and one of the earlier comments said that a 47% glycolic peel is used. Thanks!
This peel is excellent for hyperpigmentation. There will be no burns or peeling. It cannot be modified for different skin types, but it is safe for Afro-American skin. IT IS SAFE! Please look at the MD formulations website and do your homework. It is an effective form of exfoliation so you will leave looking fabulous and GLOWING. THERE IS NOOOOOOOOOO DOWN TIME – Again, no peeling or burning! That is unacceptable unless she went to the dermatologist and got that strength of a peel.

Any feedback on my question? I am new to the “Glycolic Peel” world – what exactly does the treatment include and what kind of results can I expect? I did look at a couple of websites, but they were not really helpful for me. Any adivse? I am interested in checking this service out. Thank you!

I have never had this treatment, but it looks like a very cool deal! Do we tip for this procedure?


For what kinds of skin is this treatment recommended? My skin is extremely prone to acne but it also dried out and peeling from the cold weather and the harsh Proactiv treatment I’ve been using. Would a glycolic peel help or should I consider a different procedure?
