Low Energy Treatments – 3-5 days recovery time with minimal skin peeling 

• After low-energy treatment, the skin must be kept dry. 
• If mild irritation persists, then gently pat the skin with cool water. 
• Do not cleanse for 24 hours, only gently cleanse with clean hands and water. 
• After this period, a mild water-based cleanser can be used. 
• Only lightly lubricate the skin with a basic gentle moisturiser or ALLSKIN MED Growth Factor ampoule whilst the skin is getting ready to shed and healing. 
• Apply SPF 30 or above daily. Do not expose your skin to the sun. 
• Avoid all extremes of hot or cold for 48-72 hours. 
• When peeling has almost completed the skin can then be rehydrated with mild moisturisers. 
• Avoid all Acid based products and retinols for 7-10 days. 
• Using rehydration products too early, or over moisturising, will delay the peeling process. 

Medium Energy Treatment – 5-7 days with skin flaking/peeling 

• Basic care as per low energy. 

High Level Energy Treatment – 7-10 days recovery time with skin peeling from around day 9. 

• The skin may be red and appear darker until it is ready to peel. 
• A moderate sunburn sensation will be felt. 
• At high energy your practitioner might apply a barrier cream such as Vaseline or similar alternative to the treated area directly after treatment. 
• This keeps the skin moist, which you must continue to do until it begins to peel and rejuvenate. 
• If you are using barrier cream this can be removed gently after 24 hours with water and reapplied with clean hands. 
• You may be advised to cleanse and reapply the barrier cream or gel for 2 or 3 days, twice a day, depending on your treatment and skin reaction. 
• Apply SPF 30 or above daily. Do not expose your skin to the sun. 
• When your skin starts to peel, allow it to happen naturally and don’t pick it or use any moisturiser, if the peeling process continues for a few days, then a mild moisturiser can be used.
• If your provider has prescribed antibiotics or other medications, please continue to take them as advised.

Make up and Shaving - After a low or mid energy treatment it can be up to 3 days before you are able to shave or wear make-up. For high energy treatments avoid shaving or make up until the skin has healed. 

When make-up is applied it is advised to use a mineral based type. If in doubt, please ask your practitioner. The new skin that is produced must be treated gently. 

Sun Exposure and Tanning – All sun exposure and tanning treatment must be avoided for at least 3-4 weeks after a AgeJet treatment. If exposed to the sun, the skin must be protected by a high factor SPF and wearing sun protective clothing. Sunglasses will also be required, expecially in cases where the eyes have been treated. 

Exercise and Hot / Cold Exposure - During the first week after treatment avoid any activity that will increase the blood flow such as exercise, or exposing the skin to hot or cold temperatures - such as a sauna or winter sports. These kinds of activity will aggravate the skin and induce redness or swelling while the skin is starting to repair and heal. 

GOLDEN RULES TO FOLLOW:
