iS Clinical Sheald Recovery Balm

Sheald Recovery Balm is specifically designed for post-procedure skin recovery after treatments such as laser, chemical peels, and microneedling. It's also excellent for anyone with severely dry, compromised, or sensitive skin that needs intensive barrier repair and protection from environmental stressors.

Sheald Recovery Balm is highly regarded for post-laser recovery due to its antimicrobial properties, fragrance-free formula, and triple ceramide complex that accelerates healing whilst protecting compromised skin. Many aesthetic professionals recommend it specifically for post-procedure aftercare.

Yes, Sheald works beautifully layered over active treatments. It can help buffer the irritation from retinoids and acids whilst you're adjusting to them. Apply your actives first, allow them to absorb, then seal with Sheald to protect and soothe.

Yes, this is one of its primary benefits. The combination of hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and ceramides delivers deep hydration whilst the occlusive petrolatum base locks in moisture to prevent transepidermal water loss. It's particularly effective for winter dryness and flaking after chemical peels.

For daily use with thin applications, the 60g size typically lasts 2-3 months. For post-procedure use with more generous applications, it may last 4-6 weeks depending on the treatment area and frequency of reapplication.

Sheald Recovery Balm contains retinyl palmitate (a form of vitamin A). Whilst topical vitamin A derivatives in skincare products are generally considered low risk due to minimal systemic absorption, we recommend consulting your doctor, midwife, or healthcare provider before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding to ensure it's appropriate for your individual circumstances.
