Should I tan before or after I get a facial?

Skin experts advise that you should avoid tanning your face for 24 to 48 hours after a facial due to new skin being exposed from exfoliation.

What do you need to avoid after a facial?

  • No exfoliation or masks at home for about 48 hours after.
  • Do not go to the gym or workout immediately after a facial. It's best to wait 24 hours.
  • Do not apply any Retinols, Retin-A, or other topical medications to the face for 24 hours.
  • No steam saunas for 24 to 48 hours after.
