Weeks 6–12: Expect gradual improvement in lift and skin texture. A review appointment may be offered after 12 weeks.

What to Expect

Following your treatment, it’s completely normal to experience some initial redness, swelling, and a sensation similar to a sunburn. These effects typically appear immediately and are part of your skin’s natural inflammatory response.

Peeling and flaking usually begin around days 3 to 5 post-treatment and may continue for up to 10 days. During this time, your skin may feel tight, dry, or itchy as it regenerates. This is a normal phase in the healing process and an important part of skin renewal.

Even after the peeling subsides, mild sensitivity and a pinkish tone may persist for several weeks. This is due to ongoing collagen remodeling beneath the surface. You’ll notice progressive improvements over time, with final results typically becoming visible between 3 to 6 months after treatment.

Healing Timeline

Days 1 to 3: Expect redness, swelling, and warmth in the treated area. Use cool compresses for comfort, avoid sun exposure, and apply your prescribed post-laser ointment regularly to support healing.

Days 4 to 7: Peeling usually begins. It’s important not to pick or peel the flaking skin, as this can cause damage. Instead, use a gentle cleanser and moisturiser, and apply SPF daily—even if you're staying indoors.

Week 2: Pinkness may remain, but overall sensitivity should begin to subside. You can return to a lightweight skincare routine, avoiding active ingredients unless specifically approved by your practitioner.

Weeks 3 to 6: Skin texture and tone continue to improve. At this stage, you may start introducing products like antioxidants or hyaluronic acid, under professional guidance.

3 to 6 Months: Full collagen remodeling becomes apparent during this period, revealing smoother, firmer, more radiant skin.

Do’s and Don’ts

To protect your results and aid recovery, only use skincare products provided or approved by your practitioner. Daily sun protection is crucial—apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50 every morning, even indoors, and reapply every 2 to 3 hours when exposed to sunlight.

Stay well-hydrated and avoid alcohol and caffeine during the first 72 hours, as these can dehydrate your skin and hinder healing. Using a silk pillowcase and fresh towels each day also helps maintain a clean environment for recovery.

Avoid picking, peeling, or scratching flaking skin, as this can lead to irritation or scarring. Hold off on wearing makeup until your practitioner gives the go-ahead, which is typically after 7 days. For at least 10 days post-treatment, avoid strenuous workouts, saunas, steam rooms, and hot baths. Steer clear of active skincare ingredients such as retinol, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and exfoliants for at least 2 to 4 weeks.

Aftercare Essentials Provided

To support your skin through the healing process, we’ll provide a post-treatment balm or gel carefully selected by your practitioner to soothe and protect. You’ll also receive a medical-grade SPF 50+ sunscreen to guard against UV damage.

Gentle cleansing is important, so Clinell wipes may be included as advised. Optional extras, such as a hydrating mask, sterile gauze, or a calming facial mist, may also be provided to enhance comfort and support your recovery.
