How It Works 

This recovery cream provides sustained support throughout the healing process. Willowherb extract delivers concentrated anti-inflammatory compounds that modulate the inflammatory cascade triggered by professional treatments. Red algae provides marine-derived polysaccharides that form a protective, breathable film while delivering essential minerals for repair. The combination supports the skin’s natural healing processes while maintaining optimal hydration through HylaTech™. The lightweight texture won’t interfere with the skin’s natural healing or trap heat, crucial for post-procedure care. 

Application Method 

  1. Apply after skin treatments, sun exposure or intimate area laser 
  2. Gentle pressing motion – no rubbing 
  3. Thin layer is sufficient 
  4. Reapply 2-3 times daily as needed 
  5. Continue until skin fully recovered 

Frequency 

  • 2-3 times daily post-treatment 
  • Continue for 7-10 days minimum 
  • Can use longer term for sensitive skin 
  • Safe for extended use 

Pro Tips 

  • Can layer over treatment serums once healed 
  • Use preventatively before aggressive treatments

The Balense® Philosophy 

This cream represents our professional partnership approach; providing clinical-grade homecare that complements and protects professional treatment investments. 

Recovery vs Regular Moisturiser 

Herbi Recovery Cream is specifically formulated to support healing processes, not just moisturise. Different needs require different formulations. 

The PIH Prevention Window 

Preventing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is easier than treating it. Proper recovery care is crucial for even-toned results. 

How long should I use this post-treatment?

Minimum 7-10 days, or until skin is completely normalised. 

Can I use my regular skincare over this?

Wait until initial healing is complete (usually 3-5 days) before adding other actives. 

Is this necessary if I’m using the Jelli Recover Laser Gel?

The gel provides immediate relief mostly for use on the body; this cream provides sustained recovery support mostly for the face and Intimate areas.
