What To Expect After

  • Mild redness or sensitivity may occur and typically resolves within 24 hours.

  • If congestion was addressed, a few temporary blemishes may surface as the skin clears.

  • Your complexion will continue to improve over the next several days.


“A mild pink glow or slight sensitivity after your facial is a normal response as circulation increases and your skin begins its renewal process. This typically fades within a few hours and is often a sign that your skin has been gently stimulated. Keeping your skin hydrated and protected with SPF will help support the healing process.”

— Gabrielle Riddle
