Aftercare Dos

Do keep your skin clean and hydrated.

Gently cleanse with a mild, non-abrasive cleanser and apply a hydrating moisturizer to support healing and reduce dryness.

Do use sunscreen daily.

Your skin will be very sensitive to sunlight after treatment. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, even if you’re mostly indoors, to protect against hyperpigmentation and damage.

Do follow your provider’s instructions.

Every patient’s skin responds differently. Be sure to follow any personalized guidance your provider gives you for the best results.

Do stay hydrated.

Drinking plenty of water supports your skin’s natural repair process and enhances your overall treatment outcome.

Aftercare Don’ts

Don’t pick, scratch, or rub your skin.

It’s normal to experience some redness, swelling, or tiny scabs. Avoid touching or irritating the area, as this can cause scarring or slow the healing process.

Don’t expose your skin to excessive heat.

Skip saunas, hot tubs, and vigorous exercise for at least 48 hours to prevent inflammation.

Don’t use harsh skincare products.

Avoid retinol, glycolic acid, or exfoliants until your provider says it’s safe. These can irritate freshly treated skin.

Don’t schedule additional treatments too soon.

Give your skin the recommended time to heal between sessions, usually four to six weeks.
