Post Procedure Care:
After procedure they advise and hand you out a list of precautions to be taken.I have discussed pre/post procedure care in detail in another post which you can check out all here.Some of the most important ones are:
1)Always wear a sunscreen.
2)Do not use harsh cleansers cause it may cause more dryness.
3)Use a non-comeodogenic moisturiser.
4)Do not use acne creams for the next 2-3 days.
If necessary they will give a prescription for acne applications and give you a skin care routine to be followed.
My Experience & Final Verdict:
My first package-acne free aqua therapy was to treat acne.I signed up on the second package-Intense Clarity Peel to treat my acne blemishes.Hyper-pigmentation was bothering me a lot,Epiduo which was prescribed Kaya Doctor itself helped tremendously with acne and blemishes but I still wanted faster results to opted for this package.Peel is customised as per your skin requirements.Though higher concentrations of Glycolic acid peels was used,I could tolerate well. After 6 sessions my face cleared up really well.I do have future plans for laser and if I do sign up,you can expect a review from me. Laser gives faster results when compared to peels in terms of skin lightening.If not Laser, I am thinking of signing up another peel package for skin maintenance once in a while.For now I am following Epiduo Acne Regimen,which you can check out here.As I said before you get a free product when you sign up on their packages,this time I got Kaya Soothing Cleansing Gel which I have reviewed here.If you have any questions,please drop a comment below :)Contact Information:
