Can I touch my face after facial?

24 June 2024 | By Sheeza

After a facial, it's generally recommended to avoid touching your face excessively to allow the skincare products applied during the treatment to fully absorb into the skin. Your skin may be more sensitive immediately after a facial, so touching your face could potentially transfer bacteria from your hands or irritate the skin. Additionally, excessive touching can disrupt the benefits of the facial, such as the deep cleansing and moisturizing effects. If you must touch your face, ensure your hands are clean and avoid rubbing or pressing on the skin. Following post-facial care instructions provided by your esthetician can help maintain the results and promote skin healing.
