Most of the result from a peel, laser or microneedling comes from your skin healing itself in the days and weeks afterward. What you put on your skin in that window can support that healing or get in its way, and good aftercare is mostly knowing what to leave alone.

The short answer

After a procedure, your skin is repairing a controlled injury that was made on purpose, and that repair is what produces the result. Caring for it means following your provider's aftercare, using only soothing products and nothing anti-inflammatory for the first 48 hours after microneedling, and keeping your routine gentle and hydrating while it heals. Protect it from the sun with a mineral sunscreen, and bring your usual products back in stages.

What a procedure does to your skin

Peels, lasers and microneedling all work by creating a controlled injury. A peel removes layers of skin with acid, a laser heats or removes skin with light, and microneedling makes many tiny channels with fine needles. Each one is designed to be small enough to heal well and large enough to prompt your skin to rebuild.

Your skin then heals in stages. First comes inflammation, which brings redness, warmth and some swelling. During this stage, platelets and immune cells release growth factors, the signals that tell skin cells to multiply and tell fibroblasts, the cells that make collagen, to make more of it. Over the following weeks and months, new collagen is laid down and slowly reorganized, which is why results keep improving long after the procedure.

Why we do not reduce inflammation after microneedling

The inflammation after microneedling is part of how the procedure works, because it is what produces the growth factors that build new collagen. At LAZ Skincare, we do not use anything anti-inflammatory in the first 48 hours, and we do not apply exosomes or peptide serums during that window. Applying them straight after microneedling has become popular, and it works against the response the procedure relies on. Soothing is different from reducing inflammation, and we do apply soothing masks in the clinic to calm how your skin feels.

There is a second reason. The tiny channels stay open for a short time, and anything applied then can travel far deeper than it is designed to go. It is the whole formula that goes deep, not only the active ingredient, and most ingredients are designed for a specific layer of skin. Going deeper than that is where irritation comes from. A published report described three people who developed firm, inflamed lumps on the face, called granulomas, after products were applied to their skin as part of microneedling.

If your provider gives you a specific product for that window, follow their aftercare, since they know what was done and what that product is made for.

Peels and lasers are different

Peels and lasers vary much more. A light peel may leave skin slightly pink for a day, while a deep peel or a resurfacing laser can mean a week or more of redness and peeling. Because of that range, aftercare for peels and lasers is decided case by case, depending on what was done and how your skin responded.

What normal healing looks like

Redness, warmth, tightness and a feeling like mild sunburn are expected for the first one to three days after microneedling or a light peel, and for longer after a deeper peel or laser. Light flaking or peeling often follows as new skin comes through. The signs that are not part of normal healing are listed in the Good to know section below.

The redness after microneedling releases the growth factors that build new collagen, which is why we leave it alone for 48 hours.

How to care for skin after a procedure

Follow your provider's aftercare first

Your provider's instructions are written for the procedure you had and the skin they saw. If anything below differs from them, follow theirs. If you are a client at our New York City LAZ Clinic, ask us and we will tell you exactly when to start each product.

Keep it simple while your skin heals

Once your provider says you can use products, keep to a gentle cleanser, a moisturizer and a mineral sunscreen. Cleanse with lukewarm water and your fingertips, and pat your skin dry. Skip scrubs and cleansing brushes until your skin has healed. Skip saunas, swimming pools and hard workouts for the first two days, since heat, sweat and chlorine can irritate healing skin.

Hydrate and support repair

When your skin is ready for more than the basics, ingredients that hydrate and support your barrier help it through the tight, flaky stage. These are the ones we use most after procedures, and each has its own article in the Ingredients that help section below.

Sodium hyaluronate and hyaluronic acid hold water in your skin, which eases tightness. Sodium hyaluronate also supports wound healing, which makes it welcome on skin that is recovering.

Panthenol is vitamin B5. It hydrates, calms irritation and gives your skin material to repair itself with.

Ceramides, cholesterol and fatty acids are the fats that hold your barrier together. Replacing all three, in balance, keeps water in while new skin forms.

Ectoin holds water steady around your skin cells and helps skin cope with heat and dryness while it recovers.

Hypochlorous acid is one of the few things we can send someone home with after a peel or a laser that will not sting. We suggest it for occasional use rather than every day, because it reduces every kind of bacteria on your skin at once, and your skin relies on that population staying in balance.

Protect it from the sun

New skin is thinner and pigments more easily for the first few weeks. Stay out of direct sun as much as you can and wear a wide-brimmed hat. Once your provider says you can use products, wear a mineral sunscreen with zinc oxide every morning and reapply it throughout the day. Mineral filters settle into the topmost layer of skin and stay there, which is why they are usually more comfortable on healing skin.

Bring products back in stages

Bring your usual products back in order of how gentle they are. Moisturizer and sunscreen come first, then hydrating serums, then vitamin C and niacinamide, and last of all exfoliating acids and retinoids. Add one product at a time, and wait until your skin is comfortable, with no stinging, before adding the next.

Prepare for your next procedure

The weeks before a procedure matter too. Using exosomes before a procedure helps prepare your skin, and a carboxy mask beforehand gets skin into better condition going in, which amplifies the result. Pause exfoliating acids and retinoids beforehand for as long as your provider advises.

Common questions

When can I go back to my usual routine?

It depends on the procedure. After microneedling, most people are back to gentle products after 48 hours and to their full routine after about five to seven days. After a light peel, it is often three to seven days. After a deeper peel or a resurfacing laser, it can be two weeks or more, and your provider will tell you when.

Days three to five are where people tend to give up on waiting, because skin is flaking and it is tempting to scrub it away or bring an exfoliant back early. Let the flakes shed on their own. Starting strong products too soon is the most common way healing skin gets irritated.

Should I calm the redness after microneedling?

You can soothe it, but do not reduce inflammation in the first 48 hours. Redness is not always a sign of inflammation, and something soothing can make your skin feel calmer. What we avoid is anything anti-inflammatory, because the inflammation produces the growth factors your skin uses to build new collagen. If the redness is getting worse after two days rather than better, see a doctor and let your provider know.

Can I wear makeup after a procedure?

No, not straight away. Wait until your provider says you can, which is usually at least 48 hours after microneedling and longer after deeper peels and lasers, because makeup on healing skin can travel deeper and irritate it.

Is aftercare different for deeper skin tones?

Yes, in one important way. Deeper skin pigments much easier, and healing skin is inflamed skin, which means sun, heat, picking and starting strong products too soon can leave dark marks behind. Gentle care and steady sun protection for the first four to six weeks protect against that.

Can I have procedures during pregnancy?

It depends on the procedure. Speak to your provider and your OB or midwife first, since many providers postpone some procedures until after pregnancy. The aftercare ingredients above, such as hyaluronic acid, panthenol and ceramides, are commonly used during pregnancy.

How to use it

  • Follow your provider's aftercare first, and ask them before adding anything that is not on it.
  • After microneedling, use only soothing products for the first 48 hours, and nothing anti-inflammatory, unless your provider has given you a specific product for that window.
  • Cleanse with lukewarm water and your fingertips, and pat your skin dry.
  • Keep to a gentle cleanser, a moisturizer and a mineral sunscreen until your skin is comfortable.
  • Stay out of direct sun, and once products are allowed, wear a mineral sunscreen every morning and reapply it throughout the day.
  • Bring products back one at a time, from the gentlest to the strongest.
  • Photograph your skin on day one, in the same spot and in natural daylight, and again every four weeks.

A note on the evidence. How skin heals after an injury is well understood. Research on aftercare itself is thin, and most aftercare guidance comes from clinical experience rather than trials. The granuloma report describes three people, which shows that the risk exists rather than how often it happens. What we describe here combines that research with what we see in the clinic.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    HA HydraSerum+

    $109.00

    Oil-free hydration serum that boosts moisture by up to 61% in 15 minutes.

    If your skin feels tight, dehydrated, dull, or somehow oily and dry at the same time, there's a good chance it's lacking water, not oil. A surprising number of skin concerns get worse when the skin is dehydrated, including irritation, tightness, dullness, fine lines, excess oil production, acne, and clogged pores. Revision HA HydraSerum+ helps restore hydration without feeling heavy, sticky, or greasy. Once the skin is properly hydrated, it often feels calmer, less reactive, and more balanced overall.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Delivers Immediate and Long-Lasting Oil-Free Hydration

    Most hydrating serums hydrate the surface only and the effect fades within hours. HA HydraSerum+ uses multi-molecular hyaluronic acid alongside biosaccharide gum, glycerin, sodium PCA, and sodium lactate that together attract and retain moisture at multiple levels of the skin simultaneously. The result is both an immediate visible plumping effect and a sustained hydration benefit throughout the day that keeps skin consistently comfortable and balanced.

    Plumps Fine Lines and Improves Skin Texture

    Dehydration is one of the most underestimated contributors to visible fine lines. When skin lacks moisture, lines look deeper and texture looks rougher. HA HydraSerum+ restores moisture at multiple depths, visibly plumping the skin and softening the appearance of fine lines. Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 further supports collagen production, improving firmness and texture with consistent daily use.

    Supports Collagen and Firms Skin Over Time

    Hyaluronic acid provides the hydration foundation that collagen needs to function effectively. HA HydraSerum+ goes beyond standard hydration serums by including Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, a collagen-stimulating peptide that supports the skin's structural proteins alongside the hydration complex. With consistent twice-daily use, skin not only feels more hydrated but gradually looks firmer, more elastic, and more resilient as the collagen-supporting benefits compound over time.

    Conditions and Protects With Botanical Actives

    A hydrating serum that also nourishes and protects the skin provides more value than one that simply adds moisture. HA HydraSerum+ contains honey and sea kelp that condition and soften, watermelon, apple, and lentil extracts that maintain uniform hydration throughout the day, and pomegranate extract and vitamin E that provide antioxidant protection against the daily environmental damage that depletes moisture and accelerates skin aging.

  • Alastin

    HA Immerse Serum

    5.0 out of 5.0 stars

    $134.00

    Deeply hydrates, plumps fine lines, and stimulates the skin’s natural hyaluronic acid production.

    If your skin feels dry, dull, dehydrated, inflamed, or just not as plump as it used to, Alastin HA Immerse Serum helps with more than surface hydration. It helps the skin stay hydrated long term by supporting its natural hyaluronic acid production over time instead of only temporarily hydrating the skin. I also like it for acne-prone or congested skin because proper hydration can help calm inflammation and support healthier-looking skin without feeling heavy or greasy.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Deep, Lasting Hydration

    HA Immerse Serum delivers immediate hydration while helping your skin boost its own hyaluronic acid production. This dual-action formula plumps, smooths, and softens your skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines while maintaining a healthy, youthful glow all day. Silver mushroom extract, often called natural hyaluronic acid, helps retain moisture and smooth the skin.

    Strengthens the Skin Barrier

    Powered by Alastin’s proprietary Octapeptide-45, this serum not only hydrates but also supports long-term skin health. It reinforces your skin barrier, helping it retain moisture more effectively and resist environmental stressors that can lead to dryness or premature aging. Hexapeptide-11, a bioidentical peptide from yeast fermentation, adds firming, toning, and elasticity-enhancing support.

    Clinically Proven Results

    HA Immerse Serum is backed by clinical research showing visible improvements in skin hydration, texture, and plumpness. With consistent use, it delivers both instant and long-term results, making it a powerful addition to any anti-aging or hydration-focused skincare routine. For best results, apply one to two pumps as the first product after cleansing, morning and evening.

    Perfect for Every Skin Type

    This lightweight, oil-free formula absorbs quickly and works for all skin types, even sensitive skin. It layers effortlessly under other products and makeup, so you can enjoy maximum hydration and anti-aging benefits without disrupting your daily routine. It also suits acne-prone or congested skin, since proper hydration can help calm inflammation without feeling heavy.

  • Hale & Hush

    Hush Hydrate Gel

    5.0 out of 5.0 stars

    $40.00

    Moisturizer and mask that calms, hydrates, and supports reactive skin without heaviness.

    If your skin feels overheated, reactive, dehydrated, or irritated, Hale & Hush Hydrate Gel gives hydration and calming support without feeling heavy or greasy. I recommend it a lot for rosacea-prone, acne-prone, and post-treatment skin because it feels lightweight while still keeping the skin comfortable and hydrated. If your skin is very dry, I recommend layering Hale & Hush Vital Lipid Lotion on top or the Rehab Oil. Play with both and see which one works best for you.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    A Lightweight Oil-Free Gel That Calms and Hydrates

    Hale and Hush Hydrate Gel is an oil-free gel moisturizer formulated for sensitive, reactive, and inflamed skin that needs hydration without heaviness or congestion. Rich in botanical anti-inflammatory extracts and a fermented resveratrol complex, it soothes and cools skin on contact while delivering antioxidant protection and gentle collagen support. It can also be applied generously as a calming mask. Suitable for all skin types.

    Cools and Soothes Inflammation on Contact

    Reactive skin that is hot, red, or inflamed benefits from something that works right away.

The effect is immediate and noticeable, making it a reliable choice during a flare-up or whenever skin feels uncomfortable and reactive.

    Targets Micro-Inflammation at a Cellular Level

    Surface redness is often the visible result of micro-inflammation happening beneath the skin. Hush Hydrate Gel contains a fermented resveratrol complex with a small bioavailable molecule that penetrates deeply into the skin to interrupt inflammatory signaling, support the integrity of skin cells, and promote collagen production from within. It calms what is happening beneath the surface as well as the redness you can see.

    Hydrates Without Clogging Pores or Feeling Heavy

    If your skin is oily, acne-prone, or reactive, you may want a moisturizer that feels light. Hush Hydrate Gel is oil-free, absorbs immediately, and leaves no residue. Squalane, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin provide genuine hydration that keeps skin comfortable and balanced throughout the day without adding weight or shine, even on acne-prone skin.

  • Hale & Hush

    Hush Hydrate Mask

    $98.00

    A cooling, calming mask that takes redness down fast and doubles as a leave-on moisturizer for reactive and rosacea-prone skin.

    If your skin is red, reactive, or just went through something like a peel, extractions, or a bad flare, Hale and Hush Hush Hydrate Mask can help calm your skin and restore balance. It cools on contact, which our in-clinic clients notice immediately, and it takes redness down fast. What I really like about it is that you can use it as a mask or leave it on as a moisturizer, so it adapts to what your skin needs that day. It pairs especially well with the Bio Relief Powder if redness is your main concern. It's one of the staples for reactive and rosacea-prone skin.

    Instantly Soothes Irritated And Reactive Skin

    Hale and Hush Hydrate Mask is designed to calm inflamed, sensitized skin on contact.

Neem extract supports this calming effect, helping ease irritation so skin feels more comfortable.

    Supports Barrier Recovery And Skin Stability

    This mask helps reinforce the skin barrier while delivering hydration that supports long-term resilience. By calming inflammation and reducing stress on the skin, it allows the barrier to recover and function more effectively. Squalane provides lightweight hydration and helps support the skin barrier, so skin feels calm, balanced, and comfortable after each use.

    Improves Tone And Restores Radiance

    Beyond calming benefits, the formula helps improve skin clarity and brightness. With continued use, the complexion appears more even, refreshed, and visibly healthier with a soft, natural glow. Resveratrol ferment extract, an antioxidant, helps protect against environmental stress, and neem extract helps support clearer-looking skin, so your complexion can stay brighter and more balanced.

    A Flexible Mask For Changing Skin Needs

    Hale and Hush Hydrate Mask can be used as a traditional mask or a leave-on moisturizer when extra support is needed. This versatility makes it especially useful during flare-ups, post-procedure recovery, or periods of increased sensitivity. As a leave-on step, it is built for calming skin that feels overheated or aggravated.

    $89.00

    Moisturizer, antioxidants, and broad-spectrum SPF 45 in one easy morning product.

    A lot of clients struggle with consistency when their routine has too many steps. Revision Intellishade Original SPF 45 combines moisturizer, antioxidants, and SPF into one product, which makes it much easier to stay consistent with daily sun protection. For many clients, all they need in the morning is a cleanser and Intellishade, making it one of the simplest routines I recommend.

Fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and appropriate for all skin types, particularly normal, dry, and mature skin.

    Intellishade Original contains three bioavailable peptides that work synergistically to increase hyaluronic acid synthesis, reinforce the dermal-epidermal junction, and stimulate collagen production. Used daily as the final morning step, the peptide complex contributes anti-aging benefits alongside sun protection. In a 12-week clinical study, once-daily use produced improvements in the appearance of fine lines, skin clarity, brightness, and evenness of tone.

    Hydrates and Nourishes the Skin Barrier

    A final step that both hydrates and protects removes the need for a separate moisturizer in most morning routines. Intellishade Original contains squalane, sodium hyaluronate, aloe, and glycerin that enhance the skin's natural moisture barrier and keep skin comfortable and plump. It leaves a healthy glow rather than a matte finish, which suits dry and mature skin types.

    5.0 out of 5.0 stars

    $45.00

    Hydrates deeply, calms irritation, brightens and restores balance.

    For anyone who struggles to stay consistent with masking because it feels like too much work, Jelly Mist from KRX Aesthetics is the answer. You can use it as your final step in the morning before SPF, mist it over makeup during the day, or apply it as a sleeping mask at night for an extra layer of hydration and recovery. The fact that it works in all three situations and leaves no residue makes it genuinely easy to stay consistent with. I recommend it to anyone whose skin needs more hydration, more glow, or faster recovery after stress or a procedure.

    A Spray-On Gel Mask That Works Three Ways

    KRX Jelly Mist is a hydrating gel mask in a spray bottle usable as a daily final step, an overnight sleeping mask, or a midday hydration refresh over bare skin or makeup. The jelly texture sprays on evenly, melts in without stickiness, and delivers barrier-repairing actives in seconds.

    Deeply Hydrates Without Any Heaviness

    If you want the hydration of a mask without setting time aside, Jelly Mist delivers concentrated hydration in a format that takes seconds to apply and leaves no residue. The multi-weight hyaluronic acid system hydrates at different skin depths simultaneously, creating a plump, cushioned feeling that lasts. Mist three to five sprays over the face and neck, then pat gently to help it absorb.

    Calms Redness and Repairs the Skin Barrier

    A compromised skin barrier shows up as redness, sensitivity, and tightness. Jelly Mist contains ceramide NP and centella asiatica that reinforce the barrier and calm inflammation. With regular use, skin becomes more stable, less reactive, and better able to retain moisture on its own. It is especially helpful for reactive, post-procedure, or environmentally stressed skin that needs recovery support.

    Works as a Sleeping Mask for Overnight Recovery

    Applied as the last step at night over moisturizer, Jelly Mist functions as a sleeping mask that keeps skin deeply hydrated and in active repair mode overnight. The jelly texture forms a breathable layer that seals in everything beneath it. Used this way consistently, it helps you wake up with noticeably plumper, more radiant skin.

  • Young Goose

    L.A.D.R. Serum

    $196.50

    For use with LED therapy to repair damage and strengthen skin.

    L.A.D.R. from Young Goose is the serum I recommend to anyone who uses red light therapy or is thinking about adding it to their routine. Red light therapy is something I find hard to stay consistent with myself. I use it about once a week, so knowing this serum helps me get the most out of each session makes it worth it. If you are the same way, this is what should be on your skin before you use your device.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Helps Your Red Light Therapy Work Better

    Young Goose L.A.D.R. is a light-activated serum formulated specifically for use alongside red and near-infrared light therapy. Applied before a session, it works with the light to enhance the skin's ability to repair UV-induced DNA damage, rebuild collagen, and restore cellular energy. Apply it as the first serum on clean skin before each session.

    Repairs Years of Built-Up DNA Damage

    UV exposure causes cellular damage that accumulates silently over years, showing up as uneven tone, premature lines, and skin that looks older than it should. L.A.D.R. contains light-activated enzymes that locate and repair this damage directly at the source of the problem. Applied in the morning before sun exposure, it can activate these repair benefits without a device.

    Amplifies the Results of Your Red Light Device

    Red and near-infrared light therapy stimulates cellular repair and energy production in the skin. L.A.D.R. makes the skin more receptive to that process, improving how it absorbs the light, strengthening collagen-building signals, and supporting the cellular energy needed to carry out repair. Its resveratrol adds antioxidant protection against environmental stress and supports longevity pathways.

    Firms Skin and Softens Fine Lines

    Young Goose L.A.D.R. Serum is formulated to work synergistically with red light therapy, helping enhance visible results. It supports repair and recovery processes, making it a strong addition to routines focused on advanced skin rejuvenation. Spermidine supports cellular renewal and helps improve skin resilience and structure, while NAD supports the energy processes linked to repair and regeneration.

    From $74.00

    Restores skin elasticity and smoothness while replenishing hydration, ideal for stressed or dry body skin.

    I am absolutely hooked on the Lipid Body Treatment; it’s my latest obsession! The elegant, subtle scent smells a little different to everyone, which makes it feel so unique and personal. The texture is lightweight yet super moisturizing, making it perfect year-round. It’s designed for all over the body, but the best part is how beautifully it works on the neck and décolleté, my clients see such a big difference there. The new travel size just makes it even easier to keep in your routine.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Body Care, Elevated to Clinical Skincare

    The Lipid Body Treatment delivers the same advanced barrier-repair technology found in the Epicutis facial care line, now for the entire body. This ultra-nourishing lotion hydrates, soothes, and restores sensitive or compromised skin while relieving dryness, redness, and rough patches. Lychee seed extract helps protect against glycation, supporting elasticity and hydration.

    Soothe, Strengthen, and Restore Skin Health

    Infused with the brand’s patented TSC molecule, the Lipid Body Treatment reduces inflammation at the cellular level. It helps calm irritation, smooth texture, and reinforce the skin barrier, making it ideal for anyone dealing with eczema, sensitivity, or post-procedure skin stress. Spilanthes acmella flower extract helps smooth the look of fine lines and improve firmness.

    Weightless Hydration That Lasts

    The fast-absorbing formula delivers deep moisture without heaviness or residue. Whether you are applying it after a shower or post-procedure, it leaves skin feeling supple, comfortable, and protected, not sticky or greasy. Use it daily to maintain healthy skin across the body. Apply it while skin is still slightly damp; a little goes a long way.

    Lipid Recovery Mask

    5.0 out of 5.0 stars

    From $105.00

    A soothing mask that deeply hydrates compromised skin, calms irritation, and helps repair barrier damage.

    My clients adore the Lipid Mask for its quick redness reduction in just 10 to 15 minutes, texture improvement, and the resulting smoother, tighter skin, plus the soothing sensation it provides. I also use the Lipid Mask regularly in the clinic because it delivers such reliable, visible results. Personally, I reach for it both before and after procedures and airplane travel. Usually, it takes two to four days for the skin to adjust to a new climate and recover from dehydration after flying, but this mask speeds that process up, helping the skin heal twice as fast. It’s also perfect before a red carpet event! 💖 And I have to say, the Lipid Eye Mask is something really special. It actually works for dark circles.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Immediate Relief for Stressed, Irritated Skin

    The Epicutis Lipid Recovery Mask is a professional-grade sheet mask designed to soothe and restore compromised skin. Whether recovering from an in-office procedure or dealing with dryness and irritation, this mask delivers fast-acting comfort and visible improvement in hydration and redness.

    TSC Calms Skin at the Cellular Level

    Infused with Epicutis’ patented TSC molecule, the Lipid Recovery Mask helps reduce inflammation, strengthen the skin barrier, and support healing from the inside out. It is ideal for post-procedure care or anytime your skin feels overworked, inflamed, or sensitive. Hyaluronic acid adds deep hydration, plumping the skin and supporting the skin barrier.

    Bio-Friendly Sheet That Hugs the Skin

    This bio-cellulose sheet is made from coconut fibers that adhere snugly to the face, which helps absorption and keeps evaporation to a minimum. It locks in moisture, allowing the calming and hydrating actives to penetrate deeply and work more effectively. Apply it to clean, dry skin and smooth it out to remove any air bubbles.

    Clinic-Trusted Post-Procedure Recovery

    Professional clinics use the Lipid Recovery Mask as part of recovery after laser and peel procedures, following each provider's aftercare, and it also works well before a procedure. After microneedling, wait forty-eight hours before using it, unless your provider gave you specific aftercare for that window. It helps minimize downtime and reduce the appearance of redness within 10 to 15 minutes.

  • Epicutis

    Lipid Serum

    5.0 out of 5.0 stars

    $250.00

    A gentle yet powerful serum that repairs, calms inflammation, and strengthens the skin barrier.

    Our skin ages faster from inflammation, and that’s why the Lipid Serum is such a standout. It’s deeply hydrating, lightweight, and amazing at reducing inflammation from within the skin. It quickly calms redness, restores comfort to a stressed barrier, and over time helps slow visible signs of aging. I love how it plumps, smooths, and hydrates while also being effective for both inflamed and non-inflamed acne. My clients notice such a difference in their skin’s quality and radiance; it’s truly an everyday essential.

    Epicutis Lipid Serum is a calming serum designed to reduce redness, irritation, and signs of stress. With a lightweight, silky texture, it penetrates deeply to help restore the skin's natural balance, making it ideal for sensitive, post-procedure, or inflamed skin types. Hyaluronic acid adds deep hydration, plumping the skin and supporting the barrier.

    Powered by The Patented TSC Molecule

    At the heart of this serum is Epicutis’ proprietary TSC molecule, clinically shown to reduce inflammation and support the skin's healing response. It targets the root cause of many skin concerns, chronic inflammation, helping to visibly smooth, strengthen, and restore compromised skin. TSC also supports collagen production and improves elasticity at the cellular level.

    The Lipid Serum delivers immediate relief from discomfort while working over time to improve tone, texture, and resilience.

    Clinical and Compatible With Any Routine

    Free from fragrances, parabens, and sensitizing ingredients, this serum fits into any skincare routine. Use it morning and night as your first step after cleansing. If you use a retinoid, apply the Lipid Serum first and the retinoid over it. With exfoliating acids, apply the acid first and the Lipid Serum after. One to two small drops on damp skin is all you need.

    Lipid Shield SPF 30

    4.9 out of 5.0 stars

    $90.00

    A mineral sunscreen with a soft glow tint that protects from UV and soothes skin.

    It’s always hard to find a skin tone–correcting SPF that doesn’t give cakey coverage or mess with your natural skin, especially if you don’t wear makeup. As someone who’s been using tinted SPF for 19 years, I’m obsessed with how lightweight this one is. It feels like nothing on the skin, but gives you an instant glow-up. It doesn’t just protect; it soothes, calms redness, balances oil, helps with dryness and even supports acne-prone skin. Total game-changer.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Advanced Mineral Protection

    This daily-use sunscreen delivers SPF 30 broad-spectrum defense with 21% non-nano zinc oxide, offering safe and effective coverage against UVA and UVB rays. Unlike chemical filters, zinc oxide sits on the skin’s surface to reflect and scatter light, making it gentle, non-irritating, and suitable even for sensitive or post-procedure skin.

    Supports Skin Health

    Powered by Princeton-developed TSC technology, this formula goes beyond UV defense by calming inflammation, reducing redness, and preserving collagen integrity. By protecting against UV-induced stress, it helps minimize signs of aging like fine lines and uneven texture while also improving skin resilience, leaving your complexion smoother, stronger, and more balanced.

    Repair and Restore

    Unlike sunscreens that only shield, Lipid Shield actively works to restore skin health. Antioxidants such as vitamin E and squalene support barrier strength while shea butter and sunflower seed oil lock in moisture. Together, these ingredients help repair existing UV damage, soothe irritation, and maintain supple, hydrated skin throughout the day.

    Everyday Wear, No Compromise

    With a silky, lightweight texture, this sunscreen stays put even during sweat or activity without clogging pores. Its hydrating, non-greasy finish makes it comfortable for daily use and it layers beautifully under makeup with no pilling. By combining effective sun care with restorative benefits, it keeps your skin calm, protected, and radiant.

  • Biojuve

    Living Biome Essentials Serum Duo

    4.9 out of 5.0 stars

    $220.00

    Two-step mist and probiotic serum duo that balances the microbiome, repairs the barrier, restores glow.

    My clients and I have had wonderful results with the Biojuve Living Biome Essentials Serum Duo. It contains live bacteria that settle onto your skin and produce what healthy skin relies on, including antioxidants, amino acids and fatty acids, which helps bring the bacteria on your skin back into balance. In the clinic we have seen it help with texture, redness, breakouts and oiliness, and it works on signs of aging without the dryness or peeling some people get from retinoids. I have used it in my evening routine since 2023, and it helped my acne when nothing else was working. Because the bacteria are live, some products in your routine can kill them, which is why this works best on its own in the PM, without other products.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    The Core of the BIOJUVE System

    The Living Biome Essentials Duo is the foundation of the BIOJUVE regimen, combining the Living Biome Essentials Serum (PM) and Activating Mist (PM). Together, they deliver and support live probiotics on the skin, designed to improve texture, tone, hydration, and overall skin health by restoring a balanced, thriving microbiome.

    Powered by Live Xycrobe™ Technology

    The serum in this duo contains live, skin-native Xycrobe cultures, an exclusive BIOJUVE innovation that adds skin-native bacteria back to your skin to support its balance. These microbes continuously produce proteins, peptides, and antioxidants that help reduce inflammation, repair skin damage, and support long-term barrier function. Once applied, they live on the skin and help reduce visible signs of aging.

    Skin Health That Goes Beyond the Surface

    This duo works on the balance of bacteria on your skin, which plays a role in many skin concerns. When used consistently, the Living Biome Essentials Duo can visibly improve dullness, dryness, sensitivity, and even breakouts by supporting your skin’s microbial balance and natural defenses. Glycerin in the formula attracts moisture, keeping skin soft and hydrated.

    Fits Easily Into Your Routine

    Easy to use and gentle for all skin types, this duo fits effortlessly into any routine. The mist activates the serum’s performance. Together, they set the stage for healthier, stronger, more resilient skin, starting from the microbiome up. At night, apply one pump of serum to your hand, add three to four sprays of mist, and massage into clean skin.

  • Vivant

    Marine Skin Nourishment Cream

    5.0 out of 5.0 stars

    $48.00

    For dry, dehydrated, textured, barrier depleted or mature skin.

    If your skin feels tight, rough, or just chronically dry, Vivant Marine Skin Nourishment is one of those creams that actually makes a difference. I love it for clients who have dehydrated or mature skin that needs deep nourishment, especially at night - and for anyone whose skin barrier isn’t holding onto moisture the way it should. I do not recommend it for oily skin.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Deep Hydration for Dry, Depleted Skin

    Marine Skin Nourishment Cream is designed for skin that feels chronically dry, tight, or depleted - even with regular moisturizing. It delivers lasting hydration that helps replenish moisture levels and improve overall comfort. With consistent use, skin feels softer, more supple, and better able to retain hydration throughout the day.

    Improves Rough Texture and Flakiness

    Dry skin often shows up as rough texture, flaking, or uneven patches. This cream helps smooth the look and feel of dryness-related texture by nourishing the skin and supporting flexibility. Over time, skin appears more even, refined, and less prone to visible dryness or irritation.

    Supports Barrier Strength and Resilience

    A weakened barrier can lead to sensitivity, dullness, and poor tolerance to active treatments. This formula helps reinforce the skin barrier, improving its ability to hold moisture and protect against external stressors. It’s an ideal daily moisturizer for skin that feels stressed, over-exfoliated, or inconsistent.

    Restores Glow to Dull, Stressed Skin

    When skin lacks nourishment, it can look flat and fatigued. Vivant Marine Skin Nourishment Cream helps restore a healthier-looking glow by improving hydration and skin quality. It is especially helpful when skin feels worn down from environmental exposure, travel, or corrective procedures. Massage it over the face, neck, and chest after serums, at night or anytime skin feels dry.

  • Marini SkinSolutions

    Marini Reboot PDRN Face Serum

    $185.00

    For acne, acne marks, aging, pigmentation, and sensitive skin.

    I am obsessed with PDRN, it works for basically every skin concern and every skin type. Acne, aging, pigmentation, texture, pores, it addresses all of it. I especially love recommending it for PIE and PIH because it actually helps the skin recover and repair faster. It has been studied extensively, it is gentle enough for sensitive skin, and that combination is rare.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    What PDRN Is and Why It Matters

    PDRN stands for polydeoxyribonucleotide, a compound made from purified DNA fragments that the skin uses as building blocks to repair itself. Applied topically, it supports fibroblast activity responsible for collagen and elastin production while helping reduce inflammation. For aging skin, this means the skin has more of the raw materials it needs to do its own repair work better.

    Firms Skin and Reduces Fine Lines

    When collagen production is supported and cellular repair is functioning well, fine lines fill in gradually and skin maintains more of its structural density over time. Marini Reboot supports both processes at once, helping skin feel firmer and more resilient and lines appear softer with consistent daily use. Its peptide complex works alongside PDRN to reinforce collagen-building pathways.

    Brightens Tone and Improves Radiance

    PDRN has been shown in medical studies to inhibit melanogenesis, the process that produces pigment in the skin. This means it helps keep excess pigment from forming new dark spots and supports a more even, brighter tone over time. With turmeric root extract, ginseng, and saccharomyces ferment, Marini Reboot addresses dullness and uneven tone from several angles for a more luminous look.

    Soothes Redness and Supports Skin Recovery

    PDRN is a potent anti-inflammatory compound, which makes Marini Reboot particularly effective for skin that is reactive, stressed, or recovering from environmental exposure. The formula also contains lactobacillus ferment and saccharomyces lysate for microbiome support, which helps maintain the skin's natural defense systems and reduce the chronic low-grade inflammation that accelerates aging. Skin looks calmer, more even, and more stable with regular use.

  • Hale & Hush

    Mist Me

    $36.00

    Soothing facial mist for reactive, inflamed, post-procedure, or dehydrated skin.

    If your skin gets red, overheated, dehydrated, or reactive easily, Hale & Hush Mist Me Calming Spritz helps calm and hydrate the skin throughout the day without feeling heavy or sticky. I especially recommend it for rosacea-prone, sensitized, and post-treatment skin, as well as for clients who experience flushing, tightness, or irritation from heat, travel, workouts, or environmental stress.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Calming Mist for Sensitive and Reactive Skin

    Hale and Hush Mist Me Calming Spritz is a facial mist for sensitive, reactive, and post-procedure skin that needs hydration, calming, and antioxidant support. Use it as a toning step after cleansing, over bare skin or makeup, or any time skin feels tight or hot. It has a light cranberry scent and is pregnancy safe, oncology safe, and acne safe.

    Visibly Reduces Redness on Contact and Over Time

    Redness in sensitive skin is often a signal of ongoing low-grade inflammation. Mist Me addresses this directly through a blend of calming botanicals that quiet the skin's inflammatory response, reduce visible redness on contact, and help skin return to a more settled, comfortable state. Used morning and evening and whenever skin needs it, it builds a progressively calmer baseline.

    Hydrates the Skin and Locks in Moisture Daily

    Sensitive and reactive skin often struggles to hold hydration when the barrier is compromised. Mist Me draws moisture into the skin and helps prevent it from evaporating, keeping skin comfortable between routine steps and throughout the day. Over makeup, it refreshes hydration without disrupting anything beneath, and after cleansing, it primes the skin to absorb serums and moisturizer.

    Ideal for Compromised and Post-Procedure Skin

    Post-procedure and post-reaction skin benefits from products that support recovery without adding stress. Mist Me delivers calming, hydrating, and antiseptic support in a format that takes seconds to apply. It is formulated for skin that is sensitized after a peel or laser procedure, offering barrier support and soothing relief in the hours and days that follow.

    $200.00

    Rich cream that smooths texture, boosts firmness, and hydrates deeply for multiple aging concerns.

    I recommend Calecim Multi-Action Cream to anyone who wants firmer, lifted skin and a more youthful look. It works wonders on deep wrinkles and sagging, while restoring volume and evening out skin tone for that super glow. Most people see a visible difference in just a couple of weeks. Because it works like a serum, I suggest layering it under your moisturizer for the best results.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Visibly Rebuild and Rejuvenate Aging Skin

    CALECIM Multi-Action Cream is an intensive anti-aging formula designed to firm, plump, and refine mature or thinning skin. With powerful stem cell-derived proteins, it supports collagen production, smooths deep lines, and restores facial fullness, leaving skin visibly lifted, hydrated, and more resilient with every application.

    Stem Cell Technology for Comprehensive Renewal

    This formula features CALECIM’s patented Rejuvenating Conditioned Media, rich in growth factors, cytokines, and peptides derived from umbilical cord lining stem cells. These biologically active ingredients work deep within the skin to encourage cellular repair, rebuild dermal structure, and improve elasticity, targeting multiple signs of aging at once.

    Ideal for Daily Use or Post-Procedure Recovery

    Multi-Action Cream is gentle enough for everyday use yet powerful enough to support healing after aesthetic procedures like laser or chemical peels, following your provider's aftercare. After microneedling, wait forty-eight hours before using it. It helps reduce redness, accelerates recovery, and enhances long-term results by promoting optimal skin regeneration.

    Lightweight Comfort, Maximum Impact

    Despite its rich benefits, the cream has a fast-absorbing, non-greasy texture that layers well with other products. Free from fragrances and parabens, it is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, and delivers visible improvements in skin volume, smoothness, and radiance over time. Linoleic acid and vitamin E add barrier support and help skin hold on to moisture.

    Mystro Active Balance Serum

    4.8 out of 5.0 stars

    From $115.00

    Adaptogen-powered serum that restores balance and improves redness, dullness, and uneven tone.

    Our skin is always working hard to find a balance while dealing with stress and other factors that come with aging. It takes a lot of energy for our skin to find that balance, and sometimes it needs a little help. Mystro Serum gives your skin the boost it needs to achieve that perfect balance. Works wonders on dullness, redness, rough texture, enlarged pores, or uneven tone.

    Laziza SFounder & Head Esthetician

    Restores Balance for Healthier, Glowing Skin

    Mystro Active Balance Serum takes a unique approach to skin health by helping your skin adapt to stress and maintain its natural equilibrium. Using proprietary P.A.T.H. Technology, it works to visibly improve skin quality while restoring a healthier, more radiant appearance. Apply half to one pump after your serums and before moisturizer, morning and night.

    Targets Multiple Skin Concerns

    Within two to eight weeks of twice-daily use, Mystro helps reduce visible redness, smooth rough texture, minimize pore size, and brighten uneven pigmentation. Over time, skin appears clearer, softer, and more even-toned, with a renewed glow that reflects healthy skin. Alpha-lipoic acid, a naturally occurring antioxidant with brightening properties, supports a calmer, more even look, and the formula suits all skin types.

    Boosts Skin Resilience and Hydration

    A blend of plant-based adaptogens, antioxidants, and moisture-balancing ingredients supports your skin barrier while locking in hydration. This dual action not only improves suppleness and smoothness but also helps skin bounce back more easily from daily stressors. It is fragrance-free and non-comedogenic, a good fit for reactive skin or skin recovering from a procedure.

    Clinically Proven Results

    In studies, noticeable improvements began within two weeks, with visible changes in skin clarity, texture, and tone after eight weeks of twice-daily use. By 12 weeks, 98% of participants reported feeling more confident about their skin’s appearance. The formula pairs P.A.T.H. Technology with astaxanthin, an antioxidant derived from algae that also gives the serum its unique color.
