Frequently Asked Questions

What not to do after BioRePeel?

After a BioRePeel treatment, your skin is in a delicate state as it starts its natural healing process. To ensure the best results, here are some things you should avoid:
  1. Harsh Products: Skip skincare with acids, retinoids, or alcohol; use gentle, hydrating products instead.
  2. Heat and Steam: Avoid hot showers, saunas, and steam rooms for 48 hours to prevent sensitivity.
  3. Exfoliating: Don’t scrub or use exfoliating tools for at least a week to avoid irritation.
  4. Touching or Picking: Resist touching or picking at your skin to prevent scarring or infection.
  5. Intense Physical Activity: Avoid sweating from intense workouts; stick to light exercises for a few days.

When to wash face after BioRePeel?

You should wait at least 6-8 hours after the treatment before cleansing to allow the ingredients to fully absorb.

Can you go in the sun after a BioRePeel?

We recommend that you stay out of the sun or pool for 48 hours after your peel. If you must go outside, make sure to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. UV rays can cause pigmentation, redness, and even reverse the benefits of the treatment. Wearing a wide-brimmed hat and staying in the shade as much as possible can also help protect your skin. According to studies, even short periods of sun exposure without protection can cause damage, especially when your skin is in a vulnerable state post-treatment.

Can you put makeup on after a BioRePeel?

It is best to wait at least 24-48 hours before applying makeup to your skin after a BioRePeel treatment. Makeup, especially heavy foundation or powders, can clog pores and interfere with the healing process. If you absolutely need to wear makeup, opt for a lightweight, non-comedogenic formula that won’t irritate your skin. Remember, the longer you wait, the better your skin will heal and the more radiant it will look naturally.

What Products to Use After BioRePeel?

Proper aftercare products are crucial to enhancing and maintaining the results of your BioRePeel. Here are the essentials:
  1. Gentle Cleanser: A mild, non-foaming cleanser will help keep your skin clean without stripping away its natural moisture. Look for products labeled “for sensitive skin” to ensure they are gentle enough. You could use Mixi Clean Gel Cleanser from skincare line.
  2. Hydrating Moisturizer: Use a moisturizer that is fragrance-free and rich in hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid or ceramides. This will help lock in moisture and support the skin’s barrier as it heals.
  3. Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen: Sunscreen is your skin’s best friend, especially after a BioRePeel. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 and reapply every two hours when outdoors.
  4. Antioxidant Serum: A serum containing antioxidants, such as Vitamin C, can help protect your skin from free radicals and promote healing. However, introduce it slowly to avoid irritation.
  5. Barrier Repair Cream: Consider using a barrier repair cream if your skin feels particularly dry or sensitive. These creams help restore the skin’s natural barrier, preventing moisture loss and reducing redness.
