FAQs

BEFORE AND AFTER YOUR FACIAL OR PEEL TREATMENT

• Avoid working out right before and after a facial. Workouts increase the core temperature of your body, which can make your skin more reactive to products.
• Discontinue use of any products with glycolic and salicylic acid 24-48 hours before/after treatment.
• Discontinue use of retinol products 72 hours to 1 week before/after treatment.
• Avoid tanning or direct sunlight 72 hours before/after treatment. If you have a sunburn you will not be able to receive any treatments.
• Don't exfoliate your skin 1 week prior to treatment. 
• Wait 1 week after receiving Botox and or fillers before receiving any facial treatments.
• Make your Esthetician aware of any prescription strength topical agents you are currently using or have used.

BEFORE AND AFTER YOUR HAIR REMOVAL/WAX TREATMENT

• Avoid tanning or extreme heat (hot tubs or saunas) 24-48 hours before/after treatment.
• Do not apply lotions, self tanners, body sprays the day of treatment.
• Discontinue use of any products with glycolic, salicylic acid and retinol 72 hours before/after treatment.
• Gently exfoliate the area being treated 24 hours before your appointment. It will remove the dead skin cells and allow for a cleaner wax.
• Heightened sensitivity can occur 24 hours after waxing so schedule wax 2-3 days before beach and poolside vacations.
• Let your hair grow out. Your hair should be 1/4 inch long (length of a grain of rice)
