Pre-Treatment Info
What to do/not to do before
- Minimize sun exposure for a few days to a week before the treatment. Tannished or sunburned skin can be more sensitive, affecting the treatment's effectiveness and increasing the risk of side effects.
- Keep your skin well-hydrated in the days leading up to the treatment. A well-hydrated skin can respond better to medicines and heal more effectively.
- Avoid waxing, depilatory creams, or any other form of hair removal in the treatment area for a certain period before the session.
- Clean your skin before your appointment, removing all makeup, perfumes, or lotions.
- Inform the clinic of skin infections, cold sores, or other health issues that might affect the treatment.
Post-Treatment Info
What to do/not to do after
- Protect your skin from the sun. Sun exposure can be more harmful to the skin after treatment, so it's essential to wear protective clothing and use broad-spectrum sunscreen.
- Use gentle, non-irritating skincare products. Avoid products containing retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), or other harsh ingredients until your skin has fully healed.
- Keep your skin hydrated with fragrance-free moisturizers. Hydrated skin tends to heal better and maintain the benefits of the treatment longer.
- Makeup should not be applied for at least 24 hours post-treatment to allow your skin to breathe and recover.
- Avoid scrubbing, exfoliating, or using abrasive products on the treated area for a specified period.
- Stay away from excessive heat sources like saunas, saunas, and hot baths, as these can increase swelling and irritation.
- If you experience peeling or flaking, do not pick at your skin. Let any peeling occur naturally to avoid scarring or infection.
- Follow any specific post-treatment instructions your skincare professional provides, as these are tailored to your individual treatment and skin type.
- Be aware of usual side effects versus signs of complications. Some redness, swelling, or sensitivity might be expected, but if you experience unusual or prolonged symptoms, contact your skincare provider.
- Attend any recommended follow-up appointments to monitor your skin's progress and discuss further treatments if necessary.
