Yes. We customize exfoliation strength and use soothing agents to protect delicate skin. A consultation and patch test are performed; for active rosacea or open wounds we may recommend gentler options or delay treatment to ensure safety and optimal results.

Most clients benefit from an initial series of three to six sessions at two to four week intervals, then maintenance monthly or quarterly depending on skin response. Your esthetician will create a personalized plan based on severity and lifestyle factors.

Downtime is minimal for most; some clients experience mild redness and light peeling for one to three days. We provide aftercare instructions and products to soothe and protect skin, accelerating healing and minimizing visible recovery time.

The Ahimsa treatment integrates biochemical exfoliants, so additional peels may be unnecessary immediately. Touch-up or combination protocols can be scheduled by your esthetician after assessment to avoid over-exfoliation and ensure safe, effective layering.

Yes. The dual-exfoliation approach addresses congestion in both teenage and adult acne, reducing breakouts and improving texture. We customize intensity and homecare to treat hormonal, clogged pores and maintenance needs safely across age groups.

Avoid intense sun exposure, retinoids, and harsh home treatments for at least 72 hours. Cleanse gently, skip heavy makeup, and disclose medications or recent procedures. Arriving hydrated supports comfort and optimal treatment results.
