Uses, Recovery, And Key ConsiderationsThe Tixel Treatment Process

Skincare Prep: The Do’s And Don’ts

The skin’s gotta be prepped right. No shortcuts. No guesswork.

• Sunburnt? Game over. Avoid sun two weeks before or reschedule. Burnt skin doesn’t heal well.
• Retinoids, acids, peels? Ditch ‘em 5-7 days prior. No need to arrive with irritated skin.
• Hydration is king - drink water and slap on moisturiser. Dry skin reacts worse.
• Ditch hair removal a week before. No waxing, no lasers, no plucking. Let your skin be.
• No fake tan! You will get patchy results if you do. Natural skin tone only, please.
• Wait if you are flying - Its adviseable not having a Tixel treatment within 2 days of a long-haul flight.

Medical Considerations: Is Your Skin Ready?

This ain’t a one-size-fits-all deal. Let’s talk medical stuff.

• History of cold sores? Let your provider know. A preventative antiviral can stop an outbreak.
• On meds? Certain drugs slow healing. Your doctor needs to know.
• Darker skin tones? Might need pigment inhibitors first to avoid hyperpigmentation.

The Big Day: What to Expect

• Arrive fresh-faced—no makeup, no lotions, no SPF. Just you.
• Wear comfy clothes if treating the neck/décolleté. No tight collars rubbing on fresh skin.
• No coffee, no alcohol. Both can make the skin extra sensitive.
• Pain? Most patients don’t need painkillers. If you’re worried, ask your doctor first.

Key Takeaways for a Smooth Treatment

• Skip the sun, skip the acids, skip the waxing.
• Hydrate, cleanse, and come in with bare skin.
• Your provider needs the full picture—medical history included.
• Small steps now = big results later.

The Science Behind Tixel – How It Works

Let’s keep this simple. No lasers. No cuts. Just controlled heat doing its job. The Tixel handpiece presses against your skin, a fraction of a second per pulse. That’s all it takes.

• A heated titanium tip touches the skin—quick and precise.
• Microthermal zones form, tricking the skin into healing faster.
• Unlike lasers, no burning, no charring, and no unnecessary damage.

Step-by-Step Process of the Treatment

• Step 1: Cleanse – Gotta start fresh. Your skin is cleaned of dirt, oil, and makeup.
• Step 2: Stamping – The Tixel device is lightly pressed against your skin, section by section.
• Step 3: Heat transfer – A quick pulse of heat stimulates collagen production.
• Step 4: All done! – Most sessions take 15-30 minutes—in and out before lunch.

Patients say it feels like a warm stone touch or mild sun exposure. Not painful, just warm.

Treatment Levels – Customised for Every Face

Not everyone’s skin is the same. So why should treatment be? We adjust it based on what you need.

• Low-intensity: Think of it as a skincare booster. Great for helping serums absorb better.
• Medium-intensity: Targets fine lines, dullness, and pigmentation.
• High-intensity: Heavy-duty work. Deep wrinkles, acne scars, major texture concerns.

Each level is precisely controlled. No surprises, no over-treatment, just results.

What You’ll Feel And How to React

• During the session, it feels like a warm breeze on your skin. The forehead and bony areas might be a bit more noticeable.
• Right after, expect redness and tightness, similar to a mild sunburn.
• No downtime needed, no wounds, no peeling. You can go back to life within 24 hours.

Temporary Effects You’ll Notice

• Skin turns red. Swelling, too. 24 hours. Maybe 48. Normal.
• Micro-crusts. Tiny dots. Don’t pick, don’t touch.
• Feels dry? Itchy? Weird tightness? That’s your skin healing.
• Feels warm, like you sat in the sun too long? Totally fine.

Mistakes That Can Slow Healing

• Sunscreen? Non-negotiable. SPF 50+, every day, rain or shine.
• Picking crusts? Just don’t. Let them fall off when they’re ready.
• Exfoliants, scrubs, retinoids? Put ‘em away. Let skin rest.
• Touching your face all day? Germs don’t help healing.
• Skipping moisturiser? Hydrated skin heals faster.

Rare Issues That Need Attention

• Redness that won’t quit. More than 3 days? Call your provider.
• Blisters. Uncommon, but if they pop up, don’t ignore them.
• Dark spots forming? Hyperpigmentation risk—protect your skin from sun exposure.
• Pain that doesn’t get better. If it worsens, it’s a red flag.

When to Call the Clinic

Call if:

• Pain keeps increasing instead of easing up.
• Blisters, peeling, or oozing show up unexpectedly.
• Dark patches or scars start forming.
• Healing feels off—trust your gut, check in.
