Points to consider before booking your treatment:
Ideally schedule a quiet day/evening after your treatment to allow everything to settle down.
Immediately after your treatment we recommend that you:
Steer clear of caffeine and alcohol: Alcohol dilates blood vessels and can lead to redness. It also depletes vitamin A, an essential nutrient for skin health. This then dehydrates your skin, leaving it looking dull and dry. Opt for herbal teas or infused water instead!
Skip the makeup: Avoid applying makeup for at least 12 hours post-treatment. This allows your skin to fully absorb the nourishing products used and gives your pores time to breathe without the risk of congestion.
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate: Drink at least 1.5 to 2 litres of water daily. Staying well hydrated helps flush out toxins and supports a radiant complexion.
Avoid direct sun exposure: Your skin could be more sensitive after exfoliation or extractions, so stay out of the sun and always apply SPF, even on cloudy days. This helps prevent sun damage and keeps your skin youthful.
Stick to recommended skincare products: Maintain your glow by cleansing, toning, and moisturising twice daily. Don’t forget to exfoliate and use a mask twice a week. This keeps your skin clear, soft, and ready for your next treatment.
Avoid smoking: Smoking reduces oxygen and nutrient delivery to the skin, damages collagen and elastin, and speeds up the aging process. It’s one of the fastest ways to dull your natural glow.
Manage stress: Chronic stress creates free radicals, which contribute to early aging. It also restricts blood flow to the skin, leaving it tired, lifeless, and prone to breakouts. Practice calming techniques like deep breathing, yoga or a walk in nature.
Eat for your skin: Focus on a diet rich in organic fruits and vegetables, healthy fats, and antioxidant-rich foods. Consider supplements that support healthy aging and reduce oxidative stress.
