What to expect
Before & after
Before you come
- Arrive makeup-free if you can (we'll cleanse either way)
- Pause retinol and exfoliating acids 2–3 days before
- Don't wax or thread the face on the same day — book threading after, not before
- Bring a list of what you use at home; it shapes the homecare advice
Aftercare
- Leave skin bare of makeup for the rest of the day if you can
- Skip retinol, acids and scrubs for 48 hours
- SPF every morning — newly exfoliated skin burns faster
- No sauna, steam or hot yoga for 24 hours

Is a Diego dalla Palma facial worth driving from Cambridge for?
If you want a targeted, professional result rather than general pampering, yes. DDP's RVB Skinlab rituals ($158.98–$194) use Italian professional actives like the 51+3 Hyalu Complex and Golden Collagenine, and they're uncommon in Waterloo Region. Book a Saturday if you'd rather avoid Highway 8 traffic.
Which facial is best for mature skin for Cambridge clients?
The Iconic Timeless Ritual ($194, 75 minutes) — Golden Collagenine, an amino-peptide complex and a dedicated eye and lip treatment to soften fine lines and restore firmness. The NaturMed Radiant Renewal Facial ($95.98) with Retinol Synergy is a lower-cost alternative.
How soon after my facial can I drive back to Cambridge?
Straight away — there's no downtime with any of MK Elegance Studio's facials, and you'll leave with SPF on. Skin may look slightly pink for an hour after exfoliation. If you've booked SQT Bio Microneedling instead, it's still fine to drive, but plan the following few days around light flaking.
