Come with clean skin if you can. We will double cleanse anyway.
Tell us about allergies, skin conditions, products you react to, and any recent peels, injectables or laser.
If your skin is sensitive, ease off retinol and strong actives for a few days before. Ask us if you are not sure.
Skip strong exfoliation right before your appointment.
Aftercare
Your skin may look a little pink and feel more sensitive for a few hours. That settles.
Keep it simple that evening. Gentle cleanser and moisturiser, and no strong actives like retinol or acids for 24 to 48 hours.
Wear SPF and stay out of direct sun. Skin is more sun-sensitive straight after a facial.
Drink water and skip heavy makeup for the rest of the day to let your skin breathe.
If you had extractions, avoid saunas, hot yoga and hard workouts for the rest of the day, and do not pick at your skin.
This is general guidance. You will get aftercare tailored to you at your appointment. It does not replace medical advice, so if you have a health condition or any concern, please check with your GP.
Questions before you book?
If you are not sure how to prepare, or whether a treatment suits you, just ask. We are happy to talk it through.
