During the recovery period, it is important to protect the treated area from sun exposure, avoid applying makeup or other products that may irritate the skin, and follow any aftercare instructions provided by your healthcare provider or licensed aesthetician. This may include using gentle cleansers and moisturisers, avoiding harsh scrubs or exfoliants, and applying sunscreen with a high SPF to protect the skin from UV damage.
Most people are able to resume their normal activities within a day or two of the treatment, but it is important to avoid intense physical activity, saunas, and hot tubs for a few days to minimise the risk of infection and other complications.
