Morpheus8 offers an excellent treatment alternative for individuals who may have reservations about undergoing laser or surgical procedures, yet desire to enhance their facial appearance.
After your Morpheus8 treatment, these are some recommendations you have to follow:
Dos:
- Prioritize Cleanliness: Always wash your hands thoroughly before touching your face and make sure to use fresh pillowcases regularly.
- Gentle Cleansing: Employ a mild soap or facial cleanser to cleanse your skin, ensuring it doesn’t irritate the healing process. After washing, gently pat the treated area dry with a clean towel.
- Hydration is Key: Maintain skin hydration by applying a gentle moisturizer or ointment.
- Minimal Makeup: While it’s best to avoid makeup until your skin has healed, if necessary, opt for mild makeup products and use clean makeup brushes.
- Sun Protection: After the initial 24 hours following the procedure, use a high-SPF sunscreen when outdoors. Opt for physical sunscreens over chemical ones, and make SPF 30 or higher your go-to choice to safeguard your skin and prevent future sun damage.
Don’ts:
- Sun Avoidance: Minimize sun exposure as much as possible, and steer clear of tanning beds as direct sunlight can lead to hyperpigmentation.
- Refrain from Active Skincare Products: Avoid using products classified as active skincare and those containing harmful chemicals.
- Gentle Bathing: While bathing is allowed, refrain from scrubbing the treated area. Additionally, avoid swimming for the first 24 hours post-treatment.
- Steer Clear of Fragranced Soaps: Avoid soaps with heavy fragrances and perfumes that could irritate the skin.
- No Exfoliation: Hold off on using exfoliating skincare products until your skin has fully healed.
- Avoid Picking: Be cautious not to pick at any small pinpoint scabs that may appear after the treatment, as this can lead to scarring or skin hyperpigmentation.
- Skip Heavy Exercise: Avoid vigorous exercise and the gym for the first 24 hours after treatment, as sweating can lead to the buildup of bacteria on the skin.
