  • Your skin may feel smoother, more hydrated, and rejuvenated as collagen production increases.
  • Some clients may experience mild redness or slight warmth in the skin, which should resolve within a few hours.

Post-Treatment Tips:

  • Stick to a gentle skincare routine to support the rejuvenating effects of the treatment.
  • Avoid any aggressive exfoliation or strong chemical treatments for 1–2 weeks following treatment.
  • Keep the treated area moisturised and protected with SPF, especially if exposed to the sun.
