I actually got better results with a 5 minute peel than a 30 minute one
I kept seeing everyone on here swear by longer enzyme peels for hyperpigmentation. But after trying a 30 minute lactic peel on myself and ending up red for 3 days last month, I switched it up. I did a 5 minute mandelic peel at a lower percentage on three clients with stubborn sun spots and their skin cleared up faster than any long peel I've done. The shorter contact time seemed to cause less inflammation and the results showed up in 2 weeks instead of a month. Anyone else find that shorter peels work better for certain skin types?

Did you use the same brand or formulation for both peels? Because the carrier base could be making more difference than the time.
