Hello..Thanks for the query.

It is normal for the skin to look darker after taking this peel.It is unlike the other peels where you do not see any peeling of skin.Here you will gradually see the darker part of the skin come out in the next few days.
You should take care to apply a good sunscreen and a moisturizer in the next few days very strictly for best results.In case there is irritation/redness increases/ scab formation occurs, you may consult your dermatologist for the needful.
Hope this is helpful.
Take care!
