What to Expect During Your Pixie Treatment
Custom Skin Consultation
We begin by assessing your skin, goals, and treatment history. Your provider maps out the areas to be treated and determines the ideal energy settings for both the RF Microneedling and Erbium laser portion.
Pre-Numbing Session
You’ll arrive 45 minutes early for topical numbing to ensure a smooth, comfortable experience throughout both phases of Pixie.
Dual-Action Treatment
First, RF Microneedling delivers controlled heat into the deeper layers to stimulate collagen. Next, an Erbium YAG resurfacing pass gently polishes the surface to refine texture and tone. Most clients describe the sensations as warm, prickly, and very tolerable.
Immediate Recovery Phase
Expect a pink or sunburn-like flush for 1–3 days, with possible mild swelling or dryness. Makeup can typically be worn after 24–48 hours unless otherwise advised.
Progressive, Layered Results
Your skin will look smoother and more radiant as the initial glow sets in, with deeper collagen improvements revealing themselves over the following weeks.
Pre + Post Care Instructions
Before Your Pixie Treatment
To ensure the safest and most effective results, please follow these guidelines:
- Arrive 45 minutes early for topical numbing so we can start your treatment comfortably and on time.
- Pause retinoids, exfoliants, AHAs/BHAs, and benzoyl peroxide for 5–7 days prior.
- Avoid self-tanner and minimize direct sun exposure for at least one week before your appointment.
- If you’re prone to cold sores, request a preventative antiviral prescription.
- Refrain from waxing, laser hair removal, or aggressive facials on the treated area for 2 weeks.
- Avoid NSAIDs (Advil, aspirin) 3–5 days before if combining with RF microneedling, unless medically necessary—check with your provider.
- Please reschedule if you have active breakouts, a rash, infection, or sunburn.
After Your Pixie Treatment
Your provider will give you personalized instructions, but here are the general guidelines:
- Expect pinkness and a warm, sunburn-like sensation for 1–3 days.
- Keep the skin clean and untouched for the first 6 hours.
- Avoid skincare, makeup, workouts, heat, saunas, and steam for 24–48 hours or until redness has resolved.
- When approved, resume skincare with gentle cleansers, hydrating serums, and nourishing moisturizers only.
- No exfoliating acids, retinoids, scrubs, or active products for at least 5–7 days.
- Use SPF daily and avoid direct sun exposure for 1–2 weeks; skin will be more sensitive.
- Flaking or dryness may occur—do not pick or peel.
- Expect early radiance within days, with deeper collagen improvements unfolding over the following weeks.
