Pre & post care instructions

Following these guidelines helps you get the best results from your treatment and ensures a safe, comfortable recovery.

Proper preparation and aftercare are just as important as the treatment itself. Please read the instructions relevant to your upcoming or recent procedure. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out before your appointment.

Before your treatment

  • Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your appointment — do not wax, thread, or use depilatory creams for at least 4 weeks prior.
  • Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for 4 weeks before treatment. Apply SPF 30+ daily to any exposed areas.
  • Arrive with clean, product-free skin — no lotions, deodorant, or perfume on the treatment area.
  • Inform your practitioner of any recent sun exposure, medications, or skin changes.

After your treatment

  • Avoid sun exposure for at least 2 weeks after treatment. Apply SPF 50+ whenever outdoors.
  • Do not use hot tubs, saunas, or steam rooms for 48 hours post-treatment.
  • Avoid vigorous exercise for 24–48 hours to reduce heat and friction on treated skin.
  • Gently exfoliate the area after 1 week to help shed treated hair follicles.
