Client Success Guide
Treatment Aftercare Protocols
50% of your clinical outcome happens in our Scottsdale treatment room; the other 50% depends on proper homecare following your service. Adhere to these evidence-based protocols to maximize results and protect your barrier.
Clinical Protocol
Chemical Peel Pre & Post-Care
Before Your Peel (Pre-Care)
- Discontinue Tretinoin, Retin-A, and Differin 5 to 7 days prior.
- Avoid waxing, depilatory creams, or facial laser 10 days before.
- Do not receive Botox or dermal fillers within 14 days.
- Arrive with no active sunburn or open cold sores.
After Your Peel (Post-Care)
- NEVER pick or peel flaking skin. Premature removal causes post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
- Cleanse with cool water and a lipid-replenishing milk cleanser.
- Apply pure mineral zinc-oxide SPF 30+ every 2 hours when outdoors.
- Wait 7 full days before re-introducing active acids, scrubs, or retinol.
Physical Exfoliation
Medical Dermaplaning Aftercare
Dermaplaning removes the protective superficial dead stratum corneum and peach fuzz. Your skin will be exceptionally absorbent and receptive to hydration:
- Clean Pillowcase: Sleep on a fresh silk or clean cotton pillowcase tonight to prevent bacterial transfer.
- Sanitize Brushes & Phone: Wipe down your smartphone screen with alcohol and use freshly washed makeup brushes.
- Pause Strenuous Workouts: Avoid intense cardio, hot yoga, and steam rooms for 24 to 48 hours to avoid sweat irritation in newly cleared follicles.
- Deep Hydration: Apply hyaluronic acid serums followed by squalane or ceramide creams to lock in moisture.
Lashes & Brows
Keratin Lash Lift & Brow Lamination Aftercare
- First 24 Hours: Keep lashes and brows completely dry. Avoid water, steam, sweat, eye creams, and mascara while keratin disulphide bonds set.
- Sleep Position: Sleep on your back the first two nights to avoid flattening or bending the curl against your pillow.
- Condition Daily: Beginning day 2, apply a drop of organic castor oil or keratin peptide conditioner daily to maintain hair flexibility and shine.
