Aftercare

Please ensure you follow the aftercare below: Apply the calming mask provided the evening and/or morning after your facial to help with any tingling sensation. Wash your face with cool water, which can help soothe post-peel sensations. It is necessary to drink at least 2 litres of water every day, to keep your skin hydrated. Avoid wearing make-up. Apply sunscreen with SPF30 or more. Your skin is more delicate after a peel, so avoid direct sun exposure, which can lead to even more visible signs of skin aging. Avoid strenuous workouts, dry saunas and steam rooms. Increased blood circulation to the face can intensify warming, tingling, itching, redness or other uncomfortable side effects on freshly peeled skin. It is advised to use DÉCAAR home care products to optimize treatment outcome (more than 70% improved results have been noticed when a client combines the treatment with homecare products). Professional peel side effects can include redness, dryness, itching or irritation as well as swelling, tightness, peeling or scabbing. With 2-3 days, skin may look flaky as the outermost surface peels off to make room for more radiant, new skin. You may also notice temporarily more pronounced discoloration or age spots as they rise to the skin’s surface before getting sloughed away.

Please ensure you follow the aftercare below: Avoid heat & excessive sweating for 24 hours after treatment (hot showers, sauna, steam & intense cardio) If you do not need to apply makeup for the remainder of the day, this is recommended (just for the day of your treatment) Avoid using harsh exfoliants & retinols for 48 hours post treatment
