HydraFacial Pre/Post Treatment Instructions

To ensure you get the absolute best results and experience from your HydraFacial HydraScalp with Keravive treatment, please carefully review and follow these clinical guidelines.

Before Your Treatment (Pre-Care)

    • The 14-Day Chemical Rule: Do NOT dye, highlight, bleach, or chemically relax your hair for at least 14 days prior to your treatment. Performing this treatment on newly processed hair can cause severe scalp burning, skin irritation, and will strip or fade your hair color.
    • Arrive with Clean, Dry Hair: Please wash your hair either the night before or the morning of your appointment. Your hair and scalp must be 100% dry when you arrive.
    • No Styling Products: After washing your hair, do not apply any styling products. This includes dry shampoo, hairspray, gels, mouses, oils, serums, or leave-in conditioners. We need a clean canvas to effectively clear your follicles.
    • Sun Protection: Avoid direct sun exposure on your scalp. We cannot treat sunburned scalps.

After Your Treatment (Post-Care)

    • Do Not Wash or Wet Your Hair: Leave the infused peptides on your scalp for a minimum of 6 to 12 hours before washing, rinsing, or getting your hair wet (including heavy sweating or rain). Allowing the serum to dry completely maximizes its absorption.
    • Avoid Heat and Styling Immediately: Allow your hair to dry naturally right after the treatment. Avoid using blow dryers, curling irons, flat irons, or applying styling products for at least 1 hour post-treatment.
    • Avoid Tight Hairstyles: Keep your hair loose for the rest of the day. Avoid tight ponytails, braids, extensions, or hats that compress the scalp.
    • Take-Home Maintenance Spray: Starting the evening after your treatment, begin using your Keravive Peptide Complex Take-Home Spray. Apply 1–2 sprays directly to your primary target areas every night and massage it into your scalp. Consistent daily use is critical for optimal hair growth results.
