Facial Prep

Prepare for your Organic Dermaplaning Facial:

To maximize the benefits and avoid any irritation, make sure you prep your skin using these guidelines:

• Stop exfoliating: To ensure the skin is not damaged by over-exfoliation, discontinue all exfoliants, including AHAs, BHAs, enzymes, micro-beads, and retinoids for five to seven days.

• Skip the retinol and the sunbathing: If you’re currently using Retin-A, discontinue use for seven to fourteen days prior to the treatment. You should also avoid sun exposure for five to seven days prior to ensure you do not have a sunburn.

• Let your hair grow: Hair removal such as waxing, threading, and shaving should be avoided for at least two weeks before. 

• If you breakout… In the event of active acne and raised lesions on the day of treatment, it’s best to reschedule until the skin is fully healed. There is also a six-month waiting period upon completion of Accutane.
