Does A HydraFacial Make You Peel?
This is a common concern and quite rightly so when having any sort of procedure, especially on your face. “Everyone will see I have had something done, what will they think?”
Well, the good news is that you can get amazing and instant results with HydraFacial with no downtime, you can pop out in your lunch break and be back in the office right away. People will notice you look different but in a good way.
The treatment uses a gentle exfoliating method that removes dead skin cells and hydrates the skin, leaving it looking and feeling smoother and more radiant. It is possible to experience slight flakiness or dryness after the treatment, but this is temporary and can be easily managed with moisturiser. We can apply a light moisturiser in the treatment after and we also can give you a hydration skin pack to leave with in order to help.
What to do before and after HydraFacial
Before HydraFacial
- Avoid direct exposure to the sun for 24 hours before the treatment.
- Refrain from using any retinoid creams for 48 hours before treatment to prevent skin irritation.
- Do not wax or shave the treated area at least one day before the treatment.
- Inform Rachel or one of the team of any allergies or special medical conditions.
- It is recommended to wear comfortable clothing.
After HydraFacial
- Try not to touch or rub the treated area after the treatment for 12 hours.
- Avoid direct sun exposure for 48 hours after the treatment.
- Refrain from using any exfoliating products for at least 24 hours after treatment.
- It is recommended to avoid applying any make-up or using any skincare products for at least 24 hours after the treatment to let your skin absorb the serums.
- Drink plenty of water to help your skin rehydrate after the treatment.
- It is essential to use an SPF sunscreen of at least 30 or higher after the treatment to prevent skin damage.
How long should I wait to wash my face after HydraFacial?
We recommend waiting six hours. The reason is the treatment is still working on your skin after you leave, it is penetrating deep in to the dermal layer and will be re building collagen so you don’t want to wash the active ingredients off.
