At Turkle & Associates and Phases® Skin Care & Laser Center, we know that great skin isn’t a one-and-done deal—it’s a journey. Whether you’re smoothing fine lines with neurotoxins, rejuvenating your complexion with lasers or facials, or targeting stubborn fat with CoolSculpting®, you deserve lasting results. That’s why at-home care between appointments is just as important as your treatments themselves.
Here’s your expert-backed guide to maintaining those results between visits—so you can stay glowing, confident, and radiant, every day.
Neurotoxins
Neurotoxins like BOTOX®, Daxxify®, and Xeomin® are excellent for softening fine lines and wrinkles on the face and neck caused by aging, frowning, and repeated facial expressions. While results are temporary—lasting anywhere from 3 to 6 months depending on the product and the individual—there are smart ways to extend your results and maximize the benefits.
Tips to Maximize Results:
- Avoid excessive facial movements or high-impact exercise for 24 hours post-treatment.
- Avoid lying down flat for 4 hours post-treatment.
- Stay consistent with treatments every 3–4 months (or up to 6 months for Daxxify).
- Use medical-grade skincare products with peptides and antioxidants to support skin health.

Hair Restoration
Hair loss can feel frustrating, but consistency is key. Hydrafacial Keravive stimulates follicle health by deeply cleansing the scalp and delivering targeted hydration to promote a healthier environment for hair growth. Ariessence Pure PDGF+ delivers potent growth factors that encourage regrowth and help restore thinning areas over time. These treatments work best when performed in a series and maintained regularly. For optimal results, it’s essential to complement in-office treatments with consistent at-home care between appointments.
Tips to Maximize Results:
- Stick to the full series of treatments and schedule recommended by your provider.
- Use the nourishing daily take-home spray (for HydraFacial Keravive patients) to continue improving circulation and providing nourishment to hair follicles.
- Consider adding oral supplements and vitamins to further address hair thinning from the inside out.

Laser Treatments
Lasers treatments, like HELIX, Laser Genesis, or Halo, are powerful tools for treating pigmentation, texture, fine lines, wrinkles and sun damage—but your post-treatment care can make or break the results.
Tips to Maximize Results:
- Avoid sun exposure and always apply broad-spectrum SPF.
- Use gentle cleansers and barrier-repairing moisturizers during the healing phase.
- Schedule maintenance treatments as recommended—MOXI, for example, pairs beautifully with BBL HERO for ongoing radiance.
- Avoid nicotine.
- Stick to the recommended series of treatments by your aesthetician.

Chemical Peels
Chemical peels remove damaged outer layers and stimulate renewal, revealing a brighter, smoother complexion. But what happens after you peel is just as important as the treatment itself. The post-peel phase is when your skin is most vulnerable—and most responsive—so how you care for it directly impacts the longevity and quality of your results. With the right approach, you can extend your glow, prevent irritation, and continue to build on your progress between appointments.
Tips to Maximize Results:
- Don’t pick off peeling skin or exfoliate too early—let your skin shed naturally.
- Avoid sun exposure, tanning beds and spray tans for up to 2 weeks post treatment.
- Stay hydrated.
- Avoid retinol and other harsh topical prescription products until fully healed. Instead, support your skin barrier with gentle moisturizers labeled for “sensitive skin.”

CoolSculpting®
Body contouring with CoolSculpting delivers long-term fat reduction by freezing and eliminating targeted fat cells, but it’s not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle. It’s designed to enhance your natural shape. To make the most of your investment, what you do after your treatment can make all the difference. Staying consistent with healthy routines and supporting your body’s recovery process can help you maintain sculpted, lasting results for years to come.
Tips to Maximize Results:
- Maintain a balanced diet and stay active.
- Stay hydrated and consider lymphatic drainage massage to support recovery.
- Results can take up to 3 months to fully develop—be patient and consistent.

Facials
Facials, like the Glo2Facial or DiamondGlow, can bring your skincare to a whole new level. Utilizing personalized facials in a patient’s treatment plan helps us steer the skin in the right direction based on both short-term and long-term goals. At the core of our facials are three key components: deep cleansing, exfoliation/extractions, and a mask. Glo2Facial infuses the skin with oxygen, while DiamondGlow deeply exfoliates and nourishes with serums.
Tips to Extend Results:
- Based on your facial type, your aesthetician will recommend skincare products to help your skin appear fresh and radiant between appointments.
- Avoid direct sun exposure and wear sunscreen to protect the newly treated skin.
- Avoid harsh scrubs or acids for a few days post-facial.
- Schedule regular facials based on your skin goals and aesthetician recommendation – every 4 to 6 weeks is ideal.
