Wondering what products to use after a laser treatment to soothe your skin and optimize your results? Proper post-laser skincare can make all the difference in how your skin heals and how radiant your results look. After treatments like IPL, laser resurfacing, or Fraxel, your skin is more sensitive and needs soothing, hydration, and barrier protection to recover safely.
At Skyn Alchemy, we curate clinical-grade skincare that supports recovery and enhances your post-treatment glow. Below is our expert-approved post-laser skincare routine featuring professional-grade products you can trust.
Gentle Cleansing with SensiCalm Cleanser
Product: SensiCalm Cleanser – AlumierMD
After a laser treatment, gentle cleansing is essential. Skip harsh foaming formulas and reach for SensiCalm Cleanser, a non-foaming, sulfate-free cleanser made for post-procedure and sensitive skin.
Infused with aloe, allantoin, and ceramides, it effectively removes debris while calming redness and supporting your skin barrier. Use morning and night, beginning 24 hours after your laser (or as directed by your provider).
Calm Inflammation + Redness
Product: Calm Sereum – plated Skin Science
After cleansing, your skin may feel warm, tender, or flushed. Calm by plated Skin Science is specifically formulated for post-procedure skin using exosome technology to accelerate healing, reduce redness, and restore balance on a cellular level.
This serum helps calm inflammation while supporting collagen production and barrier repair, making it an ideal first step after cleansing. Apply twice daily to soothe and restore skin health following your laser treatment.
Lock in Moisture & Support Barrier Repair
Product: ÂN-BALM – ANFISA
ÂN-BALM is a luxurious, 100% natural healing balm beloved by estheticians for its ability to soothe, protect, and deeply nourish compromised skin. It melts into the skin, sealing in hydration while allowing it to breathe, perfect for reducing tightness, dryness, and irritation after a laser.
Apply morning and night during the first few days post-treatment for a calm, comfortable complexion.
Deep Hydration + Skin Rebuilding
Product: Hydrinity Restorative HA Serum (HA+)
Once initial redness begins to subside, hydration becomes essential for optimal healing. Hydrinity Restorative HA Serum (HA+) delivers medical-grade hyaluronic acid technology that penetrates deeply to hydrate, plump, and restore elasticity.
It not only replenishes lost moisture but also supports cellular renewal and barrier repair, helping to reduce dryness and flaking. Use morning and night after cleansing or applying Calm serum.
Strengthen + Restore Barrier Function
Product: Epicutis Lipid Serum
Next, strengthen your skin’s lipid barrier with Epicutis Lipid Serum. This medical-grade formula contains patented lipid technology and anti-inflammatory actives to restore balance, reduce redness, and accelerate healing.
Use twice daily after your HA serum to rebuild resilience and achieve a hydrated, glowing complexion.
Intensive Recovery Mask Treatments
Product: Epicutis Lipid Recovery Mask
A few days after your treatment, once your provider gives you the go-ahead, introduce this cooling biocellulose mask to help soothe and rehydrate post-laser skin. It’s infused with the same lipid complex found in the serum, helping calm irritation and enhance recovery for a supple, dewy finish.
Use it 2–3 times per week during the first two weeks after treatment.
Product: Hydrinity Hyacyn Active Purifying Mist + Restorative HA+ Mask
For a professional-level at-home treatment, mist with Hydrinity Hyacyn Active Purifying Mist to calm inflammation and balance skin, then apply the Hydrinity Restorative HA+ Mask. This deeply hydrating mask locks in moisture, reduces post-laser tightness, and leaves your skin visibly smoother and plumper.
Use once or twice a week to maintain hydration and comfort during your healing phase.
Protect + Maintain Results
Your skin will be more photosensitive following laser treatments, so sun protection is non-negotiable. Apply a broad-spectrum mineral SPF 50 every morning, even indoors, to prevent pigmentation and protect your results.
We recommend these two zinc-based, medical-grade formulas:
- Colorescience Sunforgettable® Total Protection® Face Shield Flex SPF 50 – A tinted, tone-adapting sunscreen that provides all-mineral protection and a natural, radiant finish.
- Colorescience Total Protection® No-Show™ Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 – Lightweight, transparent coverage with 100% zinc oxide for an invisible shield ideal for healing skin.
Bonus: Post-Laser HydraFacial (2 Weeks Post Procedure)
Two weeks post-laser, a HydraFacial is an excellent way to gently exfoliate and restore hydration. This non-invasive facial removes flaky skin, infuses antioxidants, and refreshes your glow without irritation.
Ask your provider to customize your HydraFacial with hydrating or peptide boosters formulated for post-laser skin.
