Pre & Post-Care Instructions

• Sun Exposure: Refrain from prolonged sun exposure, tanning and spray tanning for at least two weeks leading up to your appointment.
• Skincare: Discontinue the use of retinoids, glycolic acids, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide and other active skincare ingredients one week prior to your scheduled treatment.
• Hair Preparation: Shave or trim any hair in the treatment area to promote optimal laser penetration and results.
• Medical History: If you have any history of cold sores, please let us know as soon as possible so we may prescribe Valtrex for you to take prior and after your procedure.

• Skin Preparation: Remove any sunless tanner, makeup, tinted sunscreen, regular sunscreen, or moisturizers from the treated area. Residues from these products can interfere with laser energy absorption and may cause discomfort.
• Facial Piercings: Kindly remove any facial piercings before your appointment.

• Downtime: You may apply sunscreen 15 minutes post-treatment. With the laser, there is no peeling, and you can apply makeup on the same day. Patients may experience temporary redness, slight swelling, or a warm sensation. Should redness occur, it typically resolves within a few hours. The procedure has minimal downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities.
• Sun Protection: It’s important to shield the treated area from direct sunlight and consistently apply a broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen with a minimum SPF of 30. Avoid prolonged sun exposure or tanning beds for at least one week post-treatment to protect your skin’s health and the longevity of the results.
• Skincare: Integrating a medical-grade skincare routine can enhance and maximize the results of your treatment. Start your products like retinol, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, or scrubs to face 48-72 hours post treatment. We recommend JASI SKIN VITAMIN CE GREEN TEA RADIANCE SERUM ( 20% vitamin C), RESURFACE RX (retinol) and CRYSTAL CLEAR MINERAL SPF. These products help protect the skin from sun damage but also stimulates collagen production and encourages cellular turnover.
• Treatment Schedule: For optimal results, follow the recommended treatment schedule of sessions every 4 weeks.

All of this is normal and should subside after 1-2 hours, typically diminishing within 24 hours. Slight redness may persist after 24 hours. Dryness, flaky skin, tightness, and peeling are all normal. Peeling typically starts on the 3rd day and can last for about 5 days. Downtime is about 5 days but plan at least 2 weeks before an important event.

Preparation Before Treatment: Sun Exposure: Refrain from prolonged sun exposure, tanning and spray tanning for at least two weeks leading up to your appointment.

Skincare: Discontinue the use of retinoids, glycolic acids, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide and other active skincare ingredients one week prior to your scheduled treatment.

Medical History: If you have any history of cold sores, please let us know as soon as possible so we may prescribe Valtrex for you to take prior and after your procedure.

Skin Preparation: Remove any sunless tanner, makeup, tinted sunscreen, regular sunscreen, or moisturizers from the treated area. Residues from these products can interfere with laser energy absorption and may cause discomfort.

Hair preparation: Hair should be pulled back off the face. (Headband is preferred.)

Hydration: 5-7 days before your appointment please start drinking at least 72 oz of water per day. Drinking plenty of water before your Hydrafacial is important to flush out all toxins.

You may experience temporary irritation, tightness, or redness. These are normal reactions that typically resolve within 72 hours depending on skin sensitivity. You will likely see results immediately after treatment. Your skin will feel smooth and hydrated for 1-4 weeks.

For longer lasting results, consider products from our medical grade skincare line Jasi available for purchase in clinic and monthly hydrafacial treatments.

• Avoid extra sun exposure and heat including tanning beds for at least 72 hours after the treatment. The treatment area is more susceptible to sunburn, sun damage and hyperpigmentation.
