• Discuss your current skincare routine: Let your provider know which skincare products and active ingredients you use so they can advise whether any adjustments are needed.

• Arrive with clean skin: Cleanse the treatment area and avoid applying makeup, lotions, or other products immediately before your appointment unless your provider advises otherwise.

• Follow personalized instructions: Your provider will let you know if any medications, skincare products, or treatments should be paused before your session.

• Discuss recent procedures: Inform your provider about any recent cosmetic treatments or procedures involving the planned treatment area.

• Ask questions beforehand: Discuss expected results, possible side effects, treatment settings, and the recommended number of sessions before beginning treatment.

If you are on prescribed blood thinners, do not stop them without your physician’s approval.

• Follow your provider’s instructions: Follow the personalized aftercare guidance provided for your skin and treatment area.

• Resume activities as advised: Most patients can return to normal daily activities immediately, provided they feel comfortable and their provider has no additional restrictions.

• Keep skin care gentle: Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer, and avoid introducing irritating products until your skin has settled or your provider advises otherwise.

• Protect your skin from the sun: Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen and follow sun-protection recommendations for the treated area.

• Avoid unnecessary irritation: Ask your provider when to resume exfoliants, retinoids, or other potentially irritating skincare ingredients.

• Monitor your skin: Follow the guidance provided for expected post-treatment effects, and contact your provider if you experience unusual, persistent, or worsening symptoms.

• Be patient with results: Collagen remodeling takes time, so changes in skin firmness and definition may continue to develop over the following weeks and months.
