Follow your own instructions
After a procedure, the plan from your practitioner comes first. General suggestions may not be appropriate during recovery. Keep your written instructions and ask if anything is unclear.
Choose comfort over complexity
If a product causes discomfort or your skin behaves differently, contact your practitioner rather than adding more steps on your own.
Make a note of questions
A quick note about a product, a change in your routine, or an upcoming event can make the next conversation more useful.
Plan ahead thoughtfully
Talk to your practitioner early if you are considering treatment before an event. Recovery and results vary. Leaving enough time is part of a considered decision.
Keep expectations personal
Someone else’s routine may not suit you. Work on a plan that reflects your skin, preferences, and pace.
General information only. Discuss individual skincare and clinical decisions with a qualified practitioner.
