Care that continues after your visit.

MOXI Aftercare

• Temporary warmth, swelling, and redness can occur. Redness may last up to 7 days, depending on treatment intensity. A clean, cool compress can help with comfort.
• Begin gentle cleansing the morning after treatment. Use lukewarm water and clean fingertips; pat dry. Do not scrub or use cleansing brushes.
• Apply your recommended moisturizer with clean hands and reapply when dry. Use only approved recovery products.
• Tiny dark specks, called MENDs, and a rough or bronzed texture can develop as skin heals. Let them shed naturally; do not pick, scratch, or exfoliate.
• Start an approved mineral broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher the next day. Reapply during sun exposure. Wear a hat and protective clothing and avoid direct sun.
• Wait at least 24 hours before makeup, and longer if skin is not intact or your plan requires it.
• Avoid strenuous exercise and sweating for at least 24 hours. Ask when to resume heat exposure, swimming, and your usual actives, including tretinoin and acids.
• Follow prescribed antivirals as directed. Report excessive swelling, pus, fever, increasing warmth, or extreme itching promptly.

• Cleanse gently twice daily with lukewarm water. Use clean fingertips and pat dry; avoid exfoliating cleansers and brushes.
• Moisturize with the products recommended in your plan. A clean, cool compress can help with warmth or swelling.
• Use broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher from the day of treatment and reapply during sun exposure. Avoid direct sun for 14 days and wear a hat or protective clothing.

Microneedling Aftercare

• For the first 24 hours, use only the specific post-treatment products approved in your plan. Hypochlorous acid spray or recovery balm should be used only if we have approved that exact product; do not add other skincare.
• No makeup for 48 hours, and longer if skin remains irritated or unhealed.
• Begin an approved mineral SPF 50 after 24–48 hours, when cleared. Until then, prioritize shade and a hat. Around day 4–5, ask about returning to your usual SPF if your skin is calm.
• Wear a hat and avoid direct sun for at least 7 days; continue daily sun protection afterward.
• Redness often improves over the first 72 hours, but recovery varies. Contact us if redness worsens or is not settling.
• Avoid excessive heat and sweating for at least 48 hours, including saunas, hot baths/showers, hot yoga, and workouts. Wait longer if skin is still irritated.
• No retinol, tretinoin, acids, or exfoliants for 7–10 days and until cleared. Coordinate restarting prescription products with your clinician.

• Sleep on a clean pillowcase. Keep your phone and anything touching your face clean.

• Your next treatment is usually planned for 4–6 weeks, depending on healing and your individual plan.

Peel Aftercare

For The Perfect Derma Peel: the patient take-home kit controls the timing of washing, towelettes, moisturizer, and sunscreen. Do not replace its schedule with a generic routine or add products immediately after application.

• No makeup for at least 24 hours; wait longer if your written plan requires it or skin is not ready.
• Use an approved broad-spectrum SPF 50 daily once the kit permits sunscreen, generally beginning the next day. Wear a hat and stay in shade beforehand.
• Redness and sensitivity should gradually settle, but may last beyond 48 hours. Peeling commonly begins around day 3 and may continue through day 7.
• Avoid heat, sweating, saunas, hot baths/showers, hot yoga, and workouts for at least 48 hours and throughout peeling until healed.
• No retinol, tretinoin, acids, or exfoliants for at least 7 days and until peeling has ended and you are cleared. Use kit towelettes only on their prescribed schedule.
