TO PREPARE FOR YOUR SERVICE:
Remove any piercings obstructing the area to be treated.
Do not have electrolysis, laser hair removal, or any waxing done in the area within 1 week prior in case of burning/irritation.
Minimize sun exposure and avoid tanning beds/booths for 2 weeks prior (we cannot work on sunburnt skin).
Do not have botox or fillers done within 6” of the area within 2 weeks prior.
Do not schedule any spa-grade peels within 6 weeks prior.
LIP LINER REMOVAL CLIENTS ONLY: If you have ever had a cold sore, you must partner with your PCP to begin an oral antiviral regimen at least 1 week prior to your service, and plan to continue treatment until 1 week after. The trauma to the skin is likely to cause breakouts for those that have experienced them in the past, and can even trigger breakouts in those that have never experienced them.
LIP LINER REMOVAL CLIENTS ONLY: In the 3 days prior to your service, you may want to begin a regimen of Arnica tablets (found at Whole Foods) & pineapple. Both of these will help to prevent excess swelling, which means a better healed result.
