Skin recovery after aggressive procedures!

What has to be done?

The main task is to restore the skin barrier, which will ensure further regeneration, so here are some recommendations on how to do it right.
- Do not touch your face with your hands!
- Do not tear off the crusts and do not squeeze the rash!
- Eliminate aggressive products (acids, scrubs, alcohols) from care. Give preference to delicate cleansing (for example, Bioderma Sensibio gel).
- Moisturize the skin as much as possible to restore the hydrolipid mantle and prevent transepidermal moisture loss. Products containing ceramides work best. Ceramides are fats (lipids) contained in the skin and are a kind of "glue" for epidermal cells, creating a protective barrier and protecting against moisture loss (CeReve moisturizing cream, moisturizing milk, Physiogel Calming Relief A.I).
- It is also good to have CICA-means, which can be applied for the first 1-2 days. CICA cream is a kind of SOS for the skin. They contain extract from centella asiatica, Zn (zinc), Cu (copper). Together, these components increase skin regeneration, heal and soothe the skin after contact with an irritant. Remember, the main rule of dermatology is that "treat wet with wet, and dry with dry", so if there is wetting, it is better to use sprays, and if there is dryness, creams.

Examples of means:
Sprays - Uriage Bariederm Drying Repairing Cica-Spray, spray-concentrate La Roche-Posay Cicaplast B5, A-Derma Cytelium Spray, Bioderma Cicabio Lotion Spray
Creams: Topicrem CICA Soothing Cream,
Avene Cicalfate+ Repairing Protective Cream, Bariéderm Cica-Cream with Copper-Zinc, A-Derma Dermalibour Repairing Cream.

- An auxiliary element is the use of fabric masks, which will provide intensive nutrition and hydration. Due to the occlusive effect, all components will penetrate the skin better. I recommend Rejuran recovery shooting mask. Panthenol and allantoin are part of the composition - it calms the skin, polynucleotides - restoration.
-  Sunscreen is a must to prevent possible pigmentation, because damaged skin is overly sensitive to UV rays.
- It is better to continue treatment or use cosmeceuticals with retinol.
