Steps Before Getting Fibroblast
Hey friends! If you’re gearing up for a Fibroblast treatment like Plasma Lift or Jet Plasma, prepping your skin properly can really make a difference in how well you heal and the results you see. Here’s the lowdown on getting your skin ready …and I’ll share some tips on what products to use before your appointment to keep your skin barrier happy!
Step 1: Avoid Sun Exposure
Try to stay out of the sun as much as you can for at least 4 weeks before your treatment. Sunburned or tanned skin can complicate things and slow down your healing. If you’re out and about, don’t forget broad-spectrum sunscreen!
Step 2: Stop Using Certain Products
About 2-4 weeks before your appointment, ditch anything with retinoids, exfoliants, or aggressive acne treatments. These can leave your skin extra sensitive and more prone to irritation during the treatment.
Step 3: Keep Your Skin Hydrated
Hydration is key! Drinking plenty of water helps, and using a mild moisturizer daily keeps your skin barrier strong. One product we love and have on our website is Epicutis—it’s great for reinforcing your skin’s barrier before treatment. Just skip heavy creams on the actual day of your session so your skin can breathe.
Step 4: Be Careful With Blood Thinners
Before reducing any medications like aspirin or ibuprofen, check with your doctor. Cutting back on blood thinners can help lower the risk of bruising after your treatment. This also includes COFFEE 24 hrs before the procedure.
Step 5: Cleanse Thoroughly on Treatment Day
Make sure your skin is clean—no oils, makeup, or dirt. This helps the plasma technology work its best without interference.
Step 6: Say No to Alcohol and Smoking
At least 24-48 hours before your appointment, avoid alcohol and smoking. Both can slow your healing and increase inflammation, so it’s best to give your body a little break.
Step 7: Be Open With Your Technician
If you have any skin conditions, allergies, or medications you’re taking, be sure to share this during your consultation. Personalized care means safer and more effective treatment.
Oh, and a quick bonus tip—eating plenty of leafy greens can support your skin from the inside out. The vitamins and antioxidants in greens like spinach and kale help keep your skin resilient and glowing, which is perfect prep before your fibroblast session.
Follow these steps, and you’ll be setting yourself up for some seriously rejuvenated, youthful skin. Can’t wait for you to see your results!
