  • What should I do post-treatment to maintain results?

    Your aesthetician may recommend:

    • Gentle cleansing to remove impurities without overstripping the skin.

  • Can facials and peels help with acne scars?

    Certain chemical peels, especially those containing salicylic acid, can be effective in reducing the appearance of acne scars over time. However, achieving significant improvement may require a series of treatments and ongoing maintenance. It’s essential to discuss your specific concerns with your skincare professional to determine the most appropriate approach for your skin.

  • Is there any downtime after a facial or peel?

    The downtime after a facial or peel depends on the type and depth of the treatment:

    • Lighter facials typically have no downtime, and you can resume your regular activities immediately.

During the consultation, your aesthetician will assess your skin, discuss your goals, and recommend the most suitable treatment based on their expertise and your unique needs.

  • Can I wear makeup after a facial or peel?
