Essential guidelines to maximize your treatment results and ensure safe recovery
5-7 days before your appointment
Refrain from sun exposure for at least 5-7 days prior to minimize the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Discontinue retinol, AHA, BHA, and other active acids 5 days before the treatment to prevent over-sensitization.
Do not undergo Botox, fillers, laser therapy, microneedling, or chemical peels within the recommended time frames.
Inform your specialist about any medications you're taking, especially isotretinoin or blood thinners.
First 24-72 hours
Avoid water contact for 48-72 hours based on protocol intensity. This is crucial for crystal activation.
Do not rub, scratch, or manually exfoliate the skin. Let the microcrystals work naturally.
Do not apply any makeup products for the duration specified by your protocol.
Avoid sun exposure, saunas, steam rooms, hot yoga, and any activities that cause sweating.
Peeling and recovery phase
After the water-free period, gently wash using a pH-balanced, mild gel cleanser. No scrubs or exfoliants.
Never pick or pull off peeling skin. You may trim loose skin with sanitized scissors only.
Apply SPF 50+ sunscreen every 3 hours. Wear a hat and avoid direct sunlight for 7 days.
Avoid swimming pools, saunas, or steam rooms for at least 7 days post-treatment.
