Homecare products to use during skincare treatments

 

Modalities have become more mainstream and, as such, questions often arise regarding which products to be used to optimize the results. The market is being flooded with both in-clinic procedures performed by professionals and at-home devices. Therefore, the specific actions of both treatment methods need to be well understood to choose the proper clinical and homecare products. Homecare product ingredients should coincide with the targeted skin concern treated with the device.

The skin should be prepared a few weeks prior to receiving an in-clinic treatment. Preparing the skin for an intensive treatment ensures the best results will be achieved. A superficial chemical peel can be performed to remove keratinized cells.

Pre-Treatment

Dehydration can disrupt the skin and increase skin sensitivity. As modalities could increase irritation, hydrating products should be used for 2 weeks prior to the in-clinic treatment. Well-hydrated skin will achieve better results with less risk of irritation.

It is always important to consult with your aesthetician so they can recommend appropriate pre-treatment products based on your skin’s needs. Some pre-treatment products we recommend are as follows: Hyaluronic Filler Serum, Collagen Supreme Serum, GMC Medical Intense Moisture Serum & A.G.E Eye Repair Cream.

Let’s look at some of the most popular modalities, their actions and the optimal products to use during those treatments.
