Post-RF Skincare

Following an RF treatment, it's important to handle your skin with care. Here's a breakdown of what you should and shouldn't do:

Do's

  • Hydrate Well: Drink plenty of water after your treatment. This helps improve the results.
  • Gentle Cleansing: You can gently wash your face. Avoid any harsh rubbing. Use a mild cleanser.
  • Continue Usual Skincare Routine: You can resume your regular skincare regimen after washing your face.

  • Avoid Irritation: Gentle washing helps to clean the skin without causing irritation.
  • Use Mild Products: Opt for gentle, non-abrasive cleansers that are suitable for sensitive skin.
  • Pat Dry: After washing, gently pat your face dry with a soft towel. Avoid rubbing.
