What your skin is doing for the next seven days
Placeholder. The treatment has opened thousands of micro-channels in the skin. For the first days the barrier is open, water leaves faster than usual, and anything you apply travels deeper than it normally would.
Placeholder. That is why the clinic tells you what to stop. This page tells you what to do instead, in order, day by day.
Day 0

The part nobody tells you
What to stop, and what to use instead
Placeholder. You were told what not to use. This is the other half of that sentence.
Stop for seven days
- Retinol and vitamin A (placeholder)Placeholder. Drives cell turnover the skin is already doing. Stings, then peels harder.
- AHAs, BHAs and any exfoliant (placeholder)Placeholder. The barrier is open. Acids go deeper than they should.
- Vitamin C serums (placeholder)Placeholder. Low pH on raw skin. Back on day seven.
- Makeup, heat, sweat, sun (placeholder)Placeholder. 48 hours minimum. Longer is better.
Use instead
- A cleanser with nothing in it (placeholder)Placeholder. Water-based, no fragrance, no foam.
- A barrier balm, thin, twice a day (placeholder)Placeholder. Holds water in while the channels close.
- A hydrating serum from day three (placeholder)Placeholder. Under the balm, once flaking starts.
- Mineral SPF 50, every morning (placeholder)Placeholder. Zinc, not chemical filters, on healing skin.
Placeholder. General guidance from the clinic's aftercare protocol. Your nurse's instructions for your treatment come first.

Your nurse
Sofia checks in on day three
Placeholder. Every aftercare order gets a check-in message from the clinic nursing team on day three, when the flaking starts and the questions do.
Placeholder. If something looks wrong, you message a nurse, not a chatbot. If a product in the box is wrong for your skin, we swap it. That is the whole guarantee.

Questions
Before you ask
I had my treatment today. When do I start? (placeholder)
Placeholder. Tonight. Cleanse with water, pat dry, thin layer of balm. The routine on this page starts at day 0.
My skin is flaking on day three. Is that normal? (placeholder)
Placeholder. Yes. It is the most common message the clinic gets. Keep the routine, do not exfoliate, add the serum under the balm.
Can I use this after a different treatment? (placeholder)
Placeholder. Each aftercare set is built for one treatment. If yours is not listed, message the clinic and a nurse will tell you which one fits.
Not sure this is the right aftercare for your treatment?
