Pause exfoliants (retinol, AHAs, BHAs, scrubs) for at least 3 days prior so your skin is calm and ready.
Avoid in-office treatments like peels, laser, or waxing on the face for 14 days before and after this service.
If you're using prescription skincare (like tretinoin), let your provider know so we can adjust the treatment accordingly.
Hydrate well and get good sleep—your skin shows everything!
After your appointment
Avoid getting skin wet for 4-12 hours depeneding on product use and provider recommendation.
Skip makeup for at least 12 hours if extractions were performed.

Use gentle, hydrating skincare and mineral SPF to maintain results.
Sleep on a clean pillow case the night of your service.
This treatment offers a level of exfoliation that’s deeper and more controlled than what’s possible at home. Whether through dermaplaning or a professional-grade enzyme, we’re lifting dull surface buildup and dead skin that can clog pores and dull your glow. This kind of infrequent, intentional exfoliation helps reset the skin without overstripping it. After exfoliation, we focus on customizing to your needs, patients with acne may receive extractions and redlight while patients with pigment will receive brightening treatments. We always finish by flooding the skin with hydration and barrier-repair serums. The result? A smoother, softer, more radiant complexion that stays balanced and glowy between more corrective treatments.
Key Ingredients
- Dermaplaning (mechanical exfoliation) or enzymatic exfoliant
- LED red light therapy
- barrier-supportive and corrective serums (tailored to skin type)
Mild pinkness, temporary sensitivity, or a small purge may occur due to increased cell turnover. Dermaplaning may cause minor scratch marks if skin is sensitized. Peeling is normal and expected.
