Scheduled for Halo/BBL skin reacting to Alastin pre-procedure prep, are there alternatives?

I’ve been using the non invasive kit with my halo, halo/bbl and vivace treatments for the last several years. None of my patients have had issues with the nectar. In that kit, however, is a face wash which can be a bit drying. This may be more of the issue than anything if you are using too much or too often and your skin is sensitive. This being said, for me, the kit is entirely voluntary. It improves results and lessens the downtime slightly but it is not necessary to get the results halo/bbl will provide. Gentle face wash with cetaphil, o Cera ve cream and good hydration (drink water) is sufficient hope this helps. 

I just had my own halo with alastin and didnt have any problems but everyone's skin is different. If you are reacting to the product, stop the product. It is not necessary and may reduce downtime and improve healing but again, isn't necessary. Best, Dr. Ali 

Reactions happen some times to different products before and after lasers. Back off product for a few days and maybe use some over the counter hydrocortisone cream for a day. Usually fixes things
