Care
- Cleanse the skin two times a day with plain, lukewarm water and a gentle cleanser, beginning the morning after the treatment. Use your hands and gentle patting motions. Do not rub, scrub, use an exfoliant.
- Ointment should be applied generously with clean hands over treated area and reapplied whenever your skin feels dry. Or otherwise directed by your provider.
- Apply a minimum of SPF 30 broad spectrum sunscreen.
- Avoid use of scented lotions or soaps, exfoliant creams (Retin-A, glycolic/salicylic and alpha- hydroxy acids), acne creams or gels, rough cloths, exfoliating brushes and aggressive scrubbing for 3 weeks after treatment.
- Avoid use of any pigment control products for 2 weeks after treatment.
What to expect after your treatment
We always recommend medical grade products for your daily skin care regimen to help with overall skincare goals.
- It is normal to experience warmth, redness, and swelling after treatment.
- For general post treatment discomfort an over-the-counter oral pain reliever such as Tylenol may be taken.
Don’t forget to schedule your HydraFacial 4 to 6 weeks after treatment. HydraFacial can help speed up your shedding process and enhance results! You can also save time by scheduling your injectables, such as Botox or Dysport, on the same day as your treatment.
