Note, Important Things to Do After Facial Treatment

Dream - Facial treatment can help clean clogged pores, make the skin more radiant, and moisturize the skin. Every day, we clean our faces with micellar water/ face oil or face wash.

The cleansing process actually requires other cleansing steps to ensure clean and comedo-free skin. One way to do this is by doing a facial treatment.

When doing a facial, it is important to choose the right time. After facial treatment, the facial skin needs time to recover because it usually peels and becomes red. 

"The correct step is to schedule a facial treatment in the afternoon or on weekends so that you have free time to let your face rest. If the facial is for a big event, schedule the appointment five to seven days before the big day," said Stacy Cox, a beauty expert.

Also, pay attention to any allergies experienced, especially allergies to medications, and inform the beautician and doctor during consultation. This is to choose a facial cream that is safe for the skin.

How to Take Care of Your Skin After Facial Treatment

After a facial treatment, the skin may experience some side effects such as redness, stinging, and itching. So what should be done

"Technically, it is best for patients to let their face rest for a few days after the treatment. This is to allow the effects of the treatment to be fully absorbed," said Cox.

Avoid using heavy makeup, just use sunscreen. If there is an anti-irritation cream given, apply it to the red areas.

Facials are recommended to be done regularly. If your skin is prone to acne or hyperpigmentation, Cox recommends getting a treatment at least once a week until the skin problem improves, usually done for four to six weeks.

At What Age Can You Get a Facial Treatment?

Dream - Having glowing and healthy skin is certainly the desire of women. It is not only on the face, but healthy skin is also expected from head to toe.

Nutrition from within and external care certainly greatly affects skin health, starting from a healthy diet, regular skin cleansing, to using lotion.

However, daily nutrition and care are not fully sufficient to support healthy and radiant skin optimally. Treatments, such as facials, can make the skin healthier and more optimal.

"Facials are very important for cleaning clogged pores and removing dead skin cells," said Dr. Corina Nur Syema from Skin+ Clinic, at the Grand Opening Ceremony of the 35th Skin+ Clinic at Lippo Mall Kemang, on Tuesday, December 27, 2022.

When Can You Get a Facial?

You may be confused about when is the best time to get a facial. In the productive age, teenagers can undergo facial treatments if they already have skin problems.

"Facials can be done above the age of 12, if there are already skin problems," added Dr. Corina.

To support more thorough facial cleansing, SKIN+ Clinic offers various facial treatments.

"The presence of the Trilogy 2.0 concept is a combination of treatments that function to brighten, moisturize, tighten the face, and rejuvenate the skin. Especially Medical Facials, which are a series of 3 treatments that can be done on all skin types and function to cleanse, brighten, and nourish the skin so that it appears more supple and moisturized," explained Dr. Lisda Putri Nurcahya from Skin+ Clinic at the same event.

The three treatment series consist of Aqua Clear, Laser, and Infusion with modern technology for serum infusion to the dermis layer and laser to remove dead skin cells and rejuvenate the skin. This can be followed by the Recovery Trilogy and Maintenance Trilogy.

Pay Attention to These Things After Facial Treatment

After a facial treatment, it is advisable to avoid some things that can damage the skin. Facial treatments open up the pores, making the skin more sensitive and prone to bacteria.

"Because the pores are open, it is best to stop using night cream and avoid exposure to heat after a facial. Most importantly, do not apply makeup after a facial," added Dr. Corina.
