Let me tell you a story that will preserve your skin.
A few weeks ago I got a micro-infusion faciala treatment I’ve received a handful of times.

The bottom line
How long should you wait?
Remember that everyone, and every complexion, is ultimately different.

During this period, your skin is more sensitive and prone to irritation, flushing, and breakouts.
When in doubt, ask your dermatologist or esthetician for the best post-facial routine.
