Before your treatment
To ensure your skin and lymphatic system are optimally prepared and get the most out of the session, we recommend:
Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water beforehand – this keeps your tissue well-hydrated and makes it easier to activate lymph flow.
Keep it light: Avoid heavy or very rich meals shortly before the treatment so you feel comfortable and light going in.
Arrive with time to spare: Come a few minutes early, settle in calmly, and give yourself a moment to breathe before the session begins.
Use the consultation: If you have any questions – about your skin condition, puffiness, or previous treatments – let your expert know beforehand so the treatment can be individually adapted for you.
After your treatment
After your Lymphatic Face Glow session, it's important to give your body time and space to process. A few valuable tips:
Keep drinking water: This continues to support the removal of activated substances and promotes regeneration.
Gentle movement & rest: A short walk or gentle movement helps the lymphatic system – but avoid intensive physical activity.
Enjoy some warmth: A cosy blanket, a calm environment, or a warm drink can help intensify the aftereffects.
Be gentle with your skincare: Your skin has received new impulses through the treatment – use mild products so the effects can continue to work undisturbed.
Give yourself time: You may feel an immediate lightness or a new clarity in your face. Take a moment to enjoy it and let it sink in.
Why these steps matter
The Lymphatic Face Glow works specifically with your lymphatic system to reduce puffiness, define contours, and bring a natural radiance to your complexion. When your lymphatic system is well-supported and you give your body attention before and after, you noticeably amplify the effect – for results that are felt not just in the moment, but that last.
FAQ
Is the Lymphatic Face Glow suitable for sensitive skin? Yes – we use an organic serum that is also suitable for sensitive skin. The treatment works with very gentle, rhythmic techniques and is well-tolerated even by reactive or sensitive skin. If you have specific skin concerns – such as redness, tightness, or irritation – let your expert know beforehand so they can adjust their touch accordingly.
Do I need to remove my make-up before the treatment? No – you don't need to remove your make-up yourself. We have everything on-site. Just come as you are and relax.
Can I book the Lymphatic Face Glow if I have puffy eyes or a tired complexion? Yes. The treatment works especially well for puffiness, a dull complexion, or tired-looking features. The gentle techniques support decongestion and bring freshness and clarity to the face.
Is the treatment suitable if I have blemishes? Mild blemishes are usually not a problem. Activating lymph flow can help harmonise and support the skin's appearance. Facework is not possible with acute acne, rosacea (couperose) or herpes. For other skin concerns, please speak to your expert beforehand.
How long do the effects last? Many clients notice the effects immediately: less puffiness, more defined contours, a fresh glow. How long this lasts varies from person to person – regular sessions can deepen and prolong the results.
Can I exercise after the Lymphatic Face Glow? We recommend avoiding intensive physical activity after the treatment. Give your body some rest so the effects can fully develop.
Can I book the Lymphatic Face Glow after Botox, hyaluronic acid, fillers, or microneedling? Please allow these waiting times before your appointment: at least 14 days after Botox, at least 2 weeks after fillers including hyaluronic acid, at least 2 weeks after laser treatment or a chemical peel, and at least 14 days after PRP (vampire lift), microneedling, or mesotherapy – a shorter interval is not possible. These waiting times apply across all Soulhouse studios, regardless of how the injection sites appear to have healed. Background: the tissue needs time to settle, and the active substances need to take effect undisturbed. The Lymphatic Face Glow is a gentle treatment, but the rhythmic strokes still stimulate the treated area. If your last treatment was longer ago than the relevant waiting time, you can book the Lymphatic Face Glow without hesitation. For individual questions, please consult your treating doctor first. For Assisted Stretch, a waiting time of 3 days applies.
Which Soulhouse treatments are affected?These waiting times apply to Facework treatments:
Lymphatic Face Glow
Lymphatic Duo
Combinations with Face Glow
Massages have no waiting period after Botox or fillers.
My Botox treatment was a few days ago – can I still keep my Soulhouse appointment? For Facework treatments, no. Please reschedule to at least 14 days after your Botox treatment. Massages have no waiting period, Assisted Stretch has 3 days.
Is 1 week after hyaluronic acid enough? No. After fillers including hyaluronic acid, at least 2 weeks apply before a Facework treatment, so the tissue can fully settle.
I only had microneedling, no Botox – does this still apply? Yes, microneedling, PRP, and mesotherapy are also covered by the 14-day rule.
My last cosmetic treatment was months ago – do I still have to wait? No. If the treatment was longer ago than the relevant waiting time, you can book without concern.
I already booked, but the waiting time isn't met – what do I do? Just write to [email protected] – we'll happily reschedule you.
Questions?For individual questions, please consult your treating doctor first. More info on our treatments at soulhouse.me.
Can I combine the Lymphatic Face Glow with a Brazilian Lymphatic Drainage? Yes – the two treatments complement each other beautifully and support the body’s natural decongestion and regeneration process. If you’re interested in combining both in one session, please let your expert know at the start of your appointment – they’ll be happy to adjust the treatment accordingly.
Is the treatment suitable for people with rosacea? No. Facework is not possible with rosacea (couperose), and this includes the Lymphatic Face Glow. If you have questions about your skin, please speak to your expert or your doctor beforehand.
Can I apply make-up directly after the treatment? We recommend giving your skin a little breathing room after the Lymphatic Face Glow. Lymphatic stimulation activates many processes – a short make-up break supports the effects and gives your skin time to continue calming and regenerating.
Is the Lymphatic Face Glow painful? Not at all. The treatment is very gentle, slow, and pleasant. The techniques are deliberately light to optimally stimulate lymph flow. Many clients describe a wonderful feeling of softness and clarity during the session.
Can I book the Lymphatic Face Glow if I have acne or blemishes? Facework is not possible with acute acne, and this includes the Lymphatic Face Glow. Mild to moderate blemishes are usually not a problem and can even benefit from the decongesting effect. While our organic serum is suitable for sensitive skin, we cannot guarantee how your individual skin will respond.
Are there any health conditions where I should not book the Lymphatic Face Glow? Yes – there are situations where we recommend postponing or skipping the treatment entirely.
Please do not book if you currently have:
Acute skin infections, open sores, or an active herpes outbreak in the face
Open wounds or fresh injuries to the facial area
Severe acute inflammation (e.g. a significant active eczema or psoriasis flare-up)
Facial surgery within the last 4 weeks
Why: These conditions are contagious, which is also why we protect our experts with this rule. It is a fixed rule for this treatment, not a medical assessment.
Please consult your doctor first if you have:
A diagnosed lymphatic disorder such as lymphedema
Active cancer or are currently undergoing cancer treatment
Uncontrolled high blood pressure or a serious heart condition
Pregnancy
For Botox, fillers, microneedling, and similar cosmetic procedures, the waiting times above apply. When in doubt, please consult your treating doctor before booking.
When is the Lymphatic Face Glow not possible? Facework is not possible with rosacea (couperose), acute acne, herpes simplex (cold sores) and fresh microneedling (only after it has healed).
