Before Your Appointment
- Discontinue Accutane and Isotretinoin products 6 months prior to treatment, and avoid using retinoids and glycolic products 48 hours prior to treatment.
- Also avoid prolonged sun exposure, as burned skin will be much more sensitive.
After Your Appointment
- Wait to wash your face until the following day so that all products and serums have ample time to be absorbed.
- Skin may be sensitive. Avoid sun exposure or strong topical products for a few days.
- Patients may experience slight redness following the treatment, which will subside within 24 hours.
- Schedule a series of medical microdermabrasions for optimal results.
