Use of Retinoids or Acids Before Treatment

Use of Retinoids or Acids Before Treatment

Clients using skincare products with active ingredients like retinoids, AHAs, or BHAs may be concerned about their effects on upcoming treatments, such as waxing, peels, or laser services. Advising clients to discontinue the use of these products for a few days prior to treatment can help reduce the risk of irritation or adverse reactions. It’s important to discuss their current skincare regimen during the pre-treatment consultation to ensure a safe and effective experience. Providing alternatives for pre-treatment skincare can also help maintain results without compromising skin safety.
