Environ Hand or Foot Add-on

Please follow the personalised instructions from your practitioner, as they take priority over this general guidance.

View treatment details →

Our Anti-Ageing Hand or Foot Treatment is a luxurious add-on designed to rejuvenate dry, rough, sun-damaged, and ageing skin. Using professional Environ® skincare and/or Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), this treatment gently exfoliates, deeply hydrates, and improves the appearance of fine lines, pigmentation, uneven texture, and overall skin health.

Following these instructions will help you achieve the best possible results.

BEFORE YOUR TREATMENT

For 3–5 days before your appointment:

Keep your hands or feet well moisturised.

Wear SPF 50 daily on your hands if they are regularly exposed to the sun.

Avoid excessive sun exposure or tanning.

Stop using the following products for 3–5 days before treatment:

Retinol or Retinoids (Vitamin A)

Glycolic, Lactic or Salicylic Acids

Exfoliating scrubs

Home chemical peels

Strong exfoliating creams

Please inform your therapist if you:

Are pregnant or breastfeeding

Have open wounds, cuts, blisters, or skin infections

Have eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, or an active skin condition in the treatment area

Have recently had another professional exfoliating treatment

Have known allergies to skincare ingredients

AFTER YOUR TREATMENT

It is normal to experience:

Softer, smoother skin

Mild warmth or redness

Increased hydration

A brighter, healthier appearance

Any mild redness should settle within a few hours.

FIRST 24 HOURS

DO:

Apply the recommended moisturiser regularly.

Keep the treated area clean.

Apply SPF 50 to treated hands if they will be exposed to sunlight.

FOR THE NEXT 5–7 DAYS

Avoid:

Retinol or Retinoids

Continue to moisturise the treated area several times a day to maintain hydration and support the skin barrier.

SUN PROTECTION

Hands are one of the first areas to show signs of ageing.

Apply SPF 50 to your hands every morning.

Wear protective gloves when gardening or using cleaning products.

Sun protection helps maintain your results and reduces the appearance of pigmentation and premature ageing.
