What To Do
Day 1
4 HOURS POST-TREATMENT
- Using your fingertips only, cleanse your skin with VI Derm Gentle Purifying Cleanser (included in your take-home kit).
- Rinse with cool water and pat dry. Avoid hot water for 7 days.
- Apply the 1st towelette:
- The towelette is to be applied over the entire treated surface of the skin.
- Avoid passing towelette over eyelids and lips.
- Problem areas may be applied with firm pressure for best results.
- The skin should not be cleansed after the towelette application.
- Wash your hands thoroughly after application of towelette.
Makeup can be worn. Use the VI Derm Post-Treatment Repair Cream as a moisturizer before applying makeup. No other personal hydrating products should be applied.
Important: If you have medium to dark skin (e.g. Fitzpatrick Skin Types 4, 5 and 6), you must apply the VI Derm Post-Treatment Repair Cream approximately 10 minutes after the towelette has been fully absorbed to reduce the body’s natural inflammatory response.
