Post-Treatment Care at 32 Beauty Med Spa

Optimize Your Results with Proper Post-Treatment Care

At 32 Beauty Med Spa, we understand that post-treatment care is essential for achieving the best possible outcomes from our aesthetic treatments. Follow these guidelines to ensure a smooth recovery and to maximize the benefits of your treatment.

General Post-Treatment Guidelines

  • Hydration: Keep yourself well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Proper hydration aids in the healing process and helps maintain healthy skin.
  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your skin from direct sun exposure and avoid tanning beds. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to prevent any damage to the treated area.
  • Gentle Skincare: Use gentle, non-irritating skincare products. Avoid harsh exfoliants, retinoids, and other strong active ingredients until your skin has fully healed.
  • Avoid Heat: Steer clear of hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and intense physical exercise for at least 48 hours post-treatment. Heat can exacerbate swelling and irritation.
  • Do Not Pick or Scratch: Avoid picking, scratching, or touching the treated area. Let any scabs or peeling skin fall off naturally to prevent scarring or infection.
  • Follow Specific Instructions: Adhere to any specific post-treatment instructions provided by our practitioners. These instructions are tailored to your treatment and individual needs.

Specific Post-Treatment Guidelines

Laser Hair Removal
  • Cool Compresses: Apply cool compresses to the treated area to reduce any redness or swelling. Avoid hot showers and strenuous activities for 24-48 hours.
  • Avoid Tight Clothing: Wear loose, comfortable clothing to prevent irritation of the treated area.
  • No Hair Removal: Refrain from waxing, plucking, or using hair removal creams between sessions. Shaving is allowed.
Microneedling
  • Redness and Sensitivity: Expect some redness and sensitivity for a few days post-treatment. Avoid makeup for at least 24 hours and use only gentle skincare products.
  • No Anti-Inflammatories: Avoid anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen, as they can interfere with the natural inflammatory process needed for skin rejuvenation.
  • Hydration and Moisturization: Keep your skin well-hydrated and moisturized with products recommended by your practitioner.
Chemical Peels
  • Peeling and Flaking: It’s normal to experience peeling and flaking after a chemical peel. Do not pick or pull at the peeling skin.
  • Moisturize: Use a gentle moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated and to soothe any irritation.
  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of the sun and use a high-SPF sunscreen to protect your new, sensitive skin.
Injectable Treatments (Botox, Juvederm)
  • Avoid Touching: Do not rub or massage the treated areas for at least 24 hours to prevent the spread of the injected substance.
  • No Heavy Exercise: Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol consumption, and hot environments for 24-48 hours post-treatment.
  • Cold Compresses: Apply cold compresses to reduce any swelling or bruising.
