Proper Recovery After Your DiamondGlow Facial
The immediate results of your DiamondGlow treatment are visibly transformative. To preserve the integrity of your complexion, you’ll be on duty for the next 72 hours or more.
These essential post-treatment skincare tips will help protect you and your skin from environmental damage and irritation. To get the most out of your radiant glow, you must follow these fours steps:
1. Avoid Direct Sun Exposure
This facial treatment exfoliates and extracts your skin using diamond-tipped handpieces. These skincare tools help thin the outermost layer of your skin, known as your stratum corneum. While this provides skincare benefits, it also makes you more prone to sun damage.
- Recommendation: Avoid direct sunlight for at least 48 hours after your facial treatment. If you have to go out, use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher for an added layer of protection.
2. Pause Your Regular Skincare Routine
Your skin is tender after it’s been professionally resurfaced. Using skincare products with active ingredients could cause you to suffer chemical burns or extreme irritation.
- Recommendation: For three to five days after your facial, avoid using products with Retinol (Vitamin A), AHA (Glycolic/Lactic acid), BHA (Salicylic acid), and Vitamin C. Stick to basics such as gentle cleansers and a high-quality moisturizers instead.
3. Don’t Sweat It
During the exfoliation process, this facial infuses your pores with SkinMedica serums. Increased body heat and sweat can irritate your newly-treated pores, which can lead to breakouts and heat rashes.
- Recommendation: Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, steam rooms, and hot tubs for at least 24 hours. Be sure to keep your skin cool so those specialized serums can fully penetrate your skin.
4. Your “Hands-Off” Policy
After a DiamondGlow Facial, you might notice some very light flaking on your skin. This happens because the treatment can cause your skin cells to turn over more rapidly. If you feel the urge to scratch or pick at it, you must not give in to those temptations. This is important.
- Recommendation: Stop using facial brushes, scrubs, or washcloths for one week. This allows your skin to shed safely and naturally.
