If some sun exposure cannot be avoided, first apply sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or greater. Sunscreen (with at least a SPF of 20) should become a part of your daily skin care regimen as your skin will become more sensitive to the sun as a result of this treatment.

Gently moisturize your face using Image Skincare Prevention + SPF with Moisturizer a minimum of 3 times a day.
Do NOT apply any type of glycolic acid or exfoliation products as this can severly damage or irritate the skin during the entire healing process.
Do NOT peel, rub, or scratch your skin at anytime, whatsoever. This WILL cause damage and compromise your results as well as prossible cause severe scarring.
If you experience painful areas of the face, contact your skincare therapist immediately, especially if you are prone to cold sores. Any blisters that form will need to be reported immediately.
In the event that you may have additional questions or concerns regarding your treatment or suggested home product/post-treatment care, you must consult your therapist immediately.
