If you are seeking transformative solutions for your skin concerns, skin rejuvenation is a brilliant way to achieve beautiful results without committing to invasive procedures.
One of the best ways to ensure a successful skin rejuvenation treatment is by properly preparing your skin. Optimal preparation primes your facial skin to allow professional treatments to provide enhanced results. Let’s look at what you should consider when preparing for skin rejuvenation in Los Angeles.
The first step to prepare for your skin rejuvenation treatment is to schedule an initial consultation at our office. You will meet with one of our board-certified dermatologists, Dr. Rebecca Fitzgerald, Dr. Helen Fincher, Dr. Ray Jalian, or our nurse practitioner, Angela Sarff. After reviewing your medical history, skin concerns, and goals, and performing an in-depth skin evaluation, we can recommend a personalized treatment plan to meet your unique needs and provide preparation guidelines.
Our priorities are your comfort and safety throughout your skin rejuvenation process. We want you to feel supported every step of the way. This initial consultation in Los Angeles is an ideal opportunity to address any questions or concerns you may have as you prepare for your skin rejuvenation treatment.
We will likely schedule your skin rejuvenation treatment for a few weeks after your consultation. It is essential that you properly prepare your skin in the weeks before your treatment. Drink plenty of water and eat a healthy diet to support hydrated, healthy skin. Purchasing a gentle cleanser without alcohol or fragrance is not only a great way to prepare your skin, but it is also necessary to ensure proper healing after your treatment.
Protecting your skin from the sun is essential to preparing it for treatment. In addition, adopting healthy lifestyle habits such as getting enough sleep and managing stress prior to skin rejuvenation treatment will support a successful outcome and encourage overall wellness.
By following these steps prior to your Los Angeles skin rejuvenation treatment, you may effectively get your skin ready for optimal rejuvenation.
In addition to what you can do to support healthy skin before your skin rejuvenation treatment in Los Angeles, there are some things you should avoid while getting it ready. For at least two weeks prior to your appointment, you should avoid waxing or lasering the treatment area, exposing your skin to the sun and using tanning beds, and taking certain medications such as blood thinners, aspirin, or NSAIDs (Advil).
One week before your appointment, we ask that you stop the following:
On the day of your treatment, you should arrive at our office with a clean face. Do not apply any makeup, lotions, or serums to your skin. You should also avoid strenuous exercise the day of your appointment, or at least for several hours before, to prevent undue sensitivity.
While the guidelines we provide here are an excellent way to prepare your skin for treatment, we offer many procedures that have unique preparation requirements. The best way to ensure you get your skin ready is by scheduling an initial consultation with our team.
As part of your individualized treatment plan, we will provide personalized guidance that considers your specific skincare routines, skin type, and medical history. Contact us today to schedule your initial appointment and learn more about preparing for skin rejuvenation in Los Angeles.
