Your treatment does not end when you leave the clinic. What you put on your skin in the first days afterwards matters - and simple, gentle care is what post-treatment skin loves most. One rule comes first: always follow your provider's instructions for your specific treatment; the guidance below is general care education, not medical advice.
Right after your treatment
Keep things calm and simple. Cleanse gently with lukewarm water, keep skin hydrated, and let it settle. This is the moment the Recovery Mask was made for: after treatments like microneedling or laser, once your clinician gives the go-ahead, a single biocellulose mask delivers serum-rich hydration that soothes and comforts skin that feels tight, warm or dry. Apply for 15-20 minutes, remove, and gently massage in the remaining serum - do not rinse.
The first 24-48 hours
Pause the actives: skip retinoids, exfoliating acids and scrubs for at least 24-48 hours, or as your provider directs. Keep skin moisturised, avoid heavy makeup while skin feels sensitive, and be extra diligent with SPF by day - freshly treated skin and sunshine are not friends.
Lip care after filler
After a lip appointment, lips appreciate the same gentle approach: keep them hydrated and comfortable, and avoid pressure and heat while they settle. Arnica Lip Repair pairs hydrating, comforting lip care (with arnica, camellia and argan) with a tint of colour, in five shades named for the nurses of Skin6.
Every day after
Hydrated skin holds its glow longer. A weekly Recovery Mask, daily SPF, and gentle products between appointments keep the results of your in-clinic treatments looking their best - and your take-home Post-Treatment Kit keeps the essentials in one place.
