PRE AND POST TREATMENT CARE
- Avoid Active Skincare Products: Refrain from using retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), or any exfoliating products that could increase skin sensitivity.

- Clean Skin: Arrive with a freshly cleansed face free of makeup, lotion, sunscreen, or other skincare products.
- Avoid Caffeine and Exercise: Minimise caffeine and exercise on the day of treatment to reduce redness and sensitivity.
- Comfortable Experience: A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to ensure comfort as the RF energy and microneedles work to rejuvenate your skin.
- Soothe and Moisturise: Apply a gentle, hydrating moisturiser and avoid active ingredients or exfoliants for at least 48 hours.
- Use Sunscreen: Protect treated skin with SPF 30+ daily to maintain results and prevent irritation.
- Avoid Makeup for 24 Hours: Give your skin time to recover by avoiding makeup for a day post-treatment.
