Microdermabrasion

Pre & Post Care

PRE-TREATMENT CARE

It is important to note that your skin may feel tight, as if exposed to the sun or wind for the first 2 days preceding treatment. Some moderate skin peeling may occur.

Deeper treatment for shallow scars or moderate to heavy sun damaged skin may appear slightly red, swollen or grazed for a few hours. For some patients who have sensitive skin this may remain for a few days.

POST-TREATMENT CARE

  • Do not use Retinoid (Vitamin A) products, Glycolic or any other Alpha Hydroxy acid for the 48 hours after treatment, unless otherwise directed.
  • Do not expose yourself to the sun or a tanning bed for the first two days after treatment.
  • Use a sunblock with an SPF factor of 30.
  • Cleanse your skin and moisturise twice a day.
