Why Dr. Howarth recommends it
On Dr. Howarth’s shelf for the first days after laser or microneedling, when skin needs occlusion more than actives. ALASTIN developed it for that window, in a short eight-ingredient petrolatum formula.
  • Softens, calms and moisturizes compromised skin
  • Helps restore the skin’s natural barrier
  • Helps improve the look of skin after a procedure
  • Non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic

Use as directed by your provider. ALASTIN publishes no fixed directions for this balm; how often and how long to apply depends on the treatment, so follow the aftercare plan from the practice.

  • Physalis Angulata Extract: plant extract that helps calm skin and improve its look after a procedure
  • Shea Butter Triterpenes: soothe post-procedure skin
  • Petrolatum: occlusive base that holds moisture in dry, compromised skin
