A Lactobotanical Peel, is a type of chemical peel that combines lactic acid with botanical extracts to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. Lactic acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), gently dissolves dead skin cells and stimulates cell renewal, while the botanical extracts provide additional soothing and antioxidant benefits.

This peel is designed to improve skin texture, tone, and hydration with minimal downtime, making it suitable for a range of skin types, including sensitive skin.

The number of Lactobotanical Peels you need depends on your individual skin concerns and goals.

Typically, a series of 3 to 6 peels, spaced about 2 to 4 weeks apart, is recommended for optimal results.

Your skincare professional can assess your skin and create a personalized treatment plan to address your specific needs, whether you're aiming for improved texture, tone, or overall radiance. Regular treatments can help maintain and enhance the benefits over time.

• Cleanse Your Skin: Gently cleanse your face to remove makeup, dirt, and impurities.
• Avoid Heavy Makeup: Arrive with minimal or no makeup to ensure the facial products can work effectively.
• Inform Your Skincare Professional: Share any skin conditions, allergies, or concerns to tailor the treatment to your needs.
• Hydrate: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and healthy.

• Avoid Exfoliating Treatments: Refrain from using physical or chemical exfoliants 3-5 days before your facial to prevent irritation.
• Avoid Actives: Avoid using any Vitamin A or C serums and any AHA or BHA ingredients for 3-5 days before your facial to prevent any adverse reactions.
• Skip Sun Exposure: Avoid excessive sun exposure or tanning beds, as this can make your skin more sensitive.

• Refrain from Waxing: Avoid waxing or any other hair removal methods on the day of your facial, as this can increase skin sensitivity.

We don't recommend wearing makeup after getting a facial done for 24 to 48 hours for our signature facials. However, if you need to you can, just wait a few hours after the facial to apply mineral makeup.

After treatments like IPL, ResurFX, Photo Fractional, and SkinPen, it's generally advised to wait 48 to 72 hours before applying makeup to allow your skin to heal and minimize irritation - please ask our talented Dermal Therapists for more information.
