cryoclear post treatment instructions
- Clients should avoid using products that may cause further exfoliation or drying for a period of several weeks in the area of CryoClear treatment. This may include blemish lotions or acne drugs containing drying and peeling agents such as benzoyl peroxide, alpha hydroxy, or salicylic acid.
- Highly acidic and low pH products like Vitamin C acids should be avoided for several weeks in the area of CryoClear treatment.
- Be aware that any potential allergic reactions to topical ingredients will be heightened while the skin barrier is diminished and weakened.
- The treated area is more susceptible to inflammation from acidic, peeling, or stimulating ingredients for several weeks after treatment, and the products should be avoided for that period of time in the area of treatment – ingredients like Retinoic acids, retinols, AHA’s, BHA, pure alcohol, Benzoyl Peroxide, Astringents, Hydroquinone, scrubs, and strong surfactants (like acne or oily skin cleansers) as well as brightening serums, such as Iluma, PowerBright or Vital C.
- Focus on soothing post-treatment ingredients like aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, chamomile, green tea and Dermalogica UltraCalming products.
NOTE: this treatment is not recommended on skin types 4-6, as there is a risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
