The Hero Set

If you’re experiencing any of the following, do not stress. It is a completely normal part of your journey to a healthier complexion.

• Redness and flaking
• Dryness and tightness
• Purging
• Darkening pigment

These effects can occur during what we call the “adjusting phase”. Generally speaking, the adjusting phase will last one skin cycle (for most people, this is around 4 – 6 weeks, but this can change depending on your current rate of skin cell-turnover). For more information on the adjusting phase and our treatment recommendations for ensuring a seamless experience, please refer to the Patient Journey Guide emailed to you after ordering or contact us. 

Some deeper pigment may take longer depending on the skin cycle.

As everyone’s skin is different, the timing of results will be varied between patient to patient. Generally, it will take at least one skin cycle (4 – 6 weeks, however, longer depending on their current state of skin cell turnover) for your skin to adjust to the active formulas and begin seeing improvement.
