Pre & after care
Pre care
Prior to arriving for your treatment session
Avoid any strong at-home facial treatments one week before your appointment.
Avoid excess sun exposure and wear SPF daily.
Must wait 7 days after receiving any neurotoxin, filler injections, wax or laser treatments on your face.
Avoid retinoids, Benzoyl Peroxide,AHA/BHAs, Glycolic, peel pads, and any other topical prescription facial products 3-5 days prior.
Are you getting your skin ready for a big event? If you've never had a facial before and don't know how your skin will respond, we recommend scheduling an appointment six weeks in advance with a follow-up appointment closer to your event date. This way you have time to address any negative skin reactions and get the maximum results from your service.
Don't have that much time? That's okay. Our experienced staff can recommend a service that will help you put your best face forward.
After care
Protecting your skin after and between sessions. Here's what to avoid:
Avoid picking, touching, exfoliating your skin.
Skip the heavy makeup and aggressive skin-care products for at least 2 weeks. Allow your pores to breath after a facial.
Clean makeup brushes before using to help avoid any post facial breakouts.
• Use a gentle, hydrating cleanser the rest of the week and skip any harsh astringents or peel pads.Avoid gym and aggressive exercise for 24h, make your trip to the gym before your appointment to give your skin enough time to heal.
Increased heat can occur in the skin with sweating after facial treatment, causing irritation.
Avoid acne products and other at-home treatments (retinoids, home peels, AHA/BHAs, scrubs, enzymes) for the one week.
Stay out of the sun for a few days post facial and continue to wear sunscreen everyday while re-applying every 2h.
