THINGS TO
KNOW
PRE-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS -Avoid using certain skincare products, including retinoids, exfoliants, and topical acne medications, at least one week prior to your treatment. These products can increase skin sensitivity -Practice diligent sun protection measures in the days leading up to your treatment. Minimize sun exposure and use mineral based sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to protect your skin from UV damage. Sunburned or excessively tanned skin may not be suitable for chemical peels. -Inform your provider of any medications you are currently taking, including prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, supplements, and herbal remedies. Certain medications may increase the risk of complications or interfere with the treatment process. -Refrain from waxing, tweezing, or using depilatory creams on the treatment area for at least one week before your chemical peel or Skinvive treatment. Hair removal methods can irritate the skin and increase sensitivity. -Maintain adequate hydration by drinking plenty of water in the days leading up to your treatment. Hydrated skin tends to respond better to chemical peels and Skinvive treatments and may experience fewer side effects. No Active Skin Infections or Irritations: -Ensure that your skin is free from active infections, irritations, cuts, or lesions in the treatment area. Postpone your treatment if you have any active skin conditions to prevent complications and promote optimal healing. -Minimize smoking and alcohol consumption in the days leading up to your treatment. Smoking and alcohol can impair skin healing and increase the risk of complications during and after the chemical peel or Skinvive treatment. -Depending on the intensity of the chemical peel or Skinvive treatment, you may experience redness, peeling, or flaking in the days following the procedure. Plan accordingly and avoid scheduling important events or activities during this time. -Follow any additional pre-instructions provided by your healthcare provider or aesthetician. These may include specific skincare preparations or dietary guidelines to optimize the results of your chemical peel or Skinvive treatment.
POST-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS -Adhere to any specific post-care instructions provided by your healthcare provider. These instructions may vary depending on the type and intensity of the treatment. -Protect your skin from sun exposure by wearing a mineral based sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. Avoid prolonged sun exposure, and wear protective clothing and hats when outdoors. Sunscreen application should be a daily habit to prevent sun damage and maintain results. -Keep your skin well-hydrated by applying a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer regularly. Hydrated skin helps promote healing and prevents excessive dryness or irritation. -Refrain from using harsh skincare products, including exfoliants, retinoids, and abrasive scrubs, for at least one week following the treatment. These products can irritate the skin and interfere with the healing process. -Cleanse your skin gently with a mild, non-abrasive cleanser to remove impurities without causing irritation. Avoid vigorous scrubbing or rubbing the skin, especially in areas treated with chemical peels or Skinvive. Use a clean pillow case, avoid letting pets lick you and keep your phone clean if you put to your face. -Resist the urge to pick, peel, or scratch at any flaking or peeling skin. Let the skin naturally shed post-treatment to avoid complications and promote even healing. -Continue to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated from the inside out. Hydration supports skin health and helps maintain the results of the treatment. -Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments with your provider to monitor your skin's progress, address any concerns, and adjust your skincare regimen as needed. -Understand that while results from a chemical peel may be noticeable immediately, the full benefits of Skinvive treatment may take up to four weeks to become apparent. Be patient and consistent with your skincare routine during this time. -For chemical peel results, consider periodic maintenance treatments as recommended by your provider to maintain skin health and address specific concerns. Skinvive results typically last up to six months, so maintaining a consistent skincare routine and attending regular appointments can help prolong the benefits.
