5-6 WEEKS PRIOR TO TREATMENT

• All tanning and use of sunless tanning products should be completely avoided as clean, natural, untanned skin will allow for the most effective treatments.

• Tanning is a strong factor on the quantity of sessions needed and will negatively impact your results.

2-4 WEEKS PRIOR TO TREATMENT

• Avoid waxing, plucking, threading, depilatory creams or bleaching agents on the treatment area(s) as the follicle needs to be untouched for a successful treatment.

• Chemical peels should be avoided.

• Continue to avoid the sun and sunless tanning products.

1 WEEK PRIOR TO TREAMTMENT

• Exfoliate the surface of your skin to remove dead skin cells from the follicles. 

• Avoid taking antibiotics, blood thinners as well as acne medications such as alpha hydroxy and beta hydroxyl products (AHA/BHA), hydroquinone, Accutane, Retin-A, and Differin for 7 days before treatment (if approved by your physician).

• For clients who are prone to cold sores we strongly recommended taking an anti-viral medication prior to your treatment.

DAY OF TREATMENT

• Shave the treatment area thoroughly. The closer the shave the more comfortable the treatment will be.

• Ensure a clean, dry, makeup-free, untanned treatment area.
