Treatment guidelines

Before Your Session

A few simple steps help us give you the best results. Most of these you're probably already doing!

✓ Avoid getting a sunburn on the treatment area—regular sun exposure is fine, just no active burn

✓ Arrive with clean, dry skin (we'll cleanse the area prior to treatment, but starting clean helps)

✓ No lotions, oils, makeup, or deodorant on the treatment area the day of your appointment

 ✓ Shave the area the night before or morning of (don't wax—shaving only)(does not apply to eyebrow treatments - do not shave your eyebrows off)

 ✓ Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to treatment

 ✓ Eat something before your appointment

 ✓ Skip aspirin and ibuprofen for 24 hours before (they can increase bruising)—Tylenol is fine

 ✓ Wear comfortable, loose clothing that gives easy access to the treatment area

After Your Session

ou may have some redness, mild swelling, or tenderness for a day or two, similar to a mild sunburn. Some people develop small blisters or light scabbing as part of the healing process—this is your body doing its job.
