KOREAN GLASS SKIN
CARE GUIDE
Your guide to getting the most from your K-Glass Skin treatment, including important information before and after your session, what to expect and our recommended treatment plan.
Before your
Treatment
To help prepare your skin and ensure your treatment is suitable:
Avoid retinol, prescription retinoids, AHAs, BHAs and other strong exfoliating or active skincare for 3–5 days before your appointment.
Avoid waxing, chemical peels, laser treatments or other intensive facial treatments in the treatment area for approximately one week beforehand, unless otherwise advised.
Arrive with clean skin where possible and avoid heavy makeup on the day of your appointment.
Let us know if you have active acne, cold sores, broken or irritated skin, sunburn or any other current skin condition.
Please advise us if you are currently taking, or have recently taken, isotretinoin (Accutane/Roaccutane) or any other prescription medication that may affect your skin.
Treatment suitability will be assessed before proceeding. Please tell us about any recent cosmetic or skin treatments so we can ensure your K-Glass facial is appropriate for you.
After your
Treatment
To keep your skin comfortable and support your fresh Glass Skin finish:​
Keep your skincare gentle, hydrating and simple following your treatment.
Avoid retinol/retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, exfoliating products and other strong active skincare for 3–5 days, or until your skin has completely settled.
Avoid gym workouts, strenuous exercise and excessive sweating for 24 hours.
Avoid saunas, steam rooms, spas, very hot showers and excessive heat for 24–48 hours.
Avoid swimming in chlorinated pools for approximately 24 hours.
