PRE TREATMENT ADVICE AND AFTERCARE

​

Knowing how to prepare for a chemical peel the right way ensures there is no delay in starting your Medik8 skin journey, normally with all the Medik8 peels, the pre-treatment advice involves using less concentrated forms of active ingredients found in the skin peels, preparing your skin in this way is essential to the final outcome of the treatment and ensures your skin is in its best condition possible.

​

Your practitioner will outline which medik8 products you’ll be required to use before and after your skin peel. These products will be products like SPF, serums with vitamin c and retinoids that assimilate Medik8,s philosophy.

​

The philosophy Medik8 has invented is called the CSA philosophy – which is as simple as using vitamin C + sunscreen during the day and then vitamin A at night. Vitamin C and SPF during the day provide antioxidant protection against free radical damage and environmental aggressors such as pollution and UV rays which are the main contributors that accelerate skin damage. The 2 products combined stimulate collage production and prevents the development of pigmentation for smoother brighter skin.

Vitamin A at night is so important for an anti-ageing routine and does many things for the skin such as speeding up cellular renewal and controlling sebum production.

​

After your face peel, the aftercare advice will usually be to continue using the same products you were using before the treatment as this will enhance the results for longer.

​

After every peel, your expert clinician will apply a complimentary Medik8 Ultimate recovery BIO Cellulare mask which is worth £30 This is a hydrating mineral sheet mask that contains zinc, hyaluronic acid and rockweed algae extract which helps soothe the skin and harnesses the power of detoxifying natural minerals. This leaves your skin completely nourished, soothed and refreshed.
