Post Treatment Aftercare Instructions

Epidermal Levelling 

In order to achieve the best results from your professional treatment we ask that you read and understand the following instructions.

Your recovery time will be influenced by the type of treatment you have received and your individual skin’s response. Your skin specialist will have discussed with you the individual time frame you should expect for recovery in addition to your personalized post treatment home care.

I agree to stop, discontinue or not have any of the following treatments:

FOR 24 HOURS POST TREATMENT:

  • Exercise (avoid getting overheated)
  • Bathing or showering (placing the treated area under direct water spray or bath water)
  • Application of physical sun protection

FOR 72 HOURS POST TREATMENT:

  • Application of chemical sun protection

FOR 5 - 10 DAYS POST TREATMENT:

  • Exfoliating products (scrubs, AHA’s, BHA’s, Vitamin A)

I also agree to:
