FAQ

To get the best results and reduce the risk of irritation, here’s how to prepare before your appointment:

• Avoid sun exposure and tanning (natural or artificial) for at least 2 weeks.

• Shave the treatment area 24 hours before your session. Do not wax, pluck, or use depilatory creams.

• Skip skincare products (like lotions, deodorants, or perfumes) on the treatment area the day of your appointment.

• Consult with your specialist if you’re on any medications or have had recent cosmetic treatments.

Proper preparation ensures your treatment is safe, effective, and as comfortable as possible.
