Medical Aesthetics FAQ

Before your electrolysis session, it's important to ensure your skin is in the best possible condition. Avoid sun exposure and tanning for at least 48 hours prior to your appointment, as this can increase skin sensitivity and potentially affect the effectiveness of the treatment. Ensure your skin is clean and free of any products. If you are prone to discomfort or have sensitive skin, consider taking an over-the-counter pain reliever about an hour before your session. Hydration is also key - well-hydrated skin tends to be more pliable, which can make the treatment more comfortable and effective.

The frequency of HydraFacial treatments can differ based on various factors such as your skin type, specific skin issues, and personal skincare objectives. For the majority of our clients, we suggest arranging for a HydraFacial every four to six weeks. This schedule coincides with the skin's natural regeneration cycle, ensuring each session effectively eliminates dead skin cells to unveil a fresh, healthy skin layer. Regular treatments can help maintain optimal skin health, enhance complexion, and address specific skin concerns effectively.

Post-treatment care is crucial to the success of a PRP treatment. For at least four hours after the procedure, avoid washing the treated area. This allows the PRP to fully penetrate the skin and maximize its benefits. For at least 24 hours post-treatment, avoid direct sun exposure, rigorous exercise, and alcohol, as these can interfere with the healing process. We will provide you with specific aftercare instructions tailored to your treatment area and individual needs.

Yes, individuals with sensitive eyes can still enjoy the benefits of a lash lift. Our highly trained technicians take extra precautions with clients who have sensitive eyes, ensuring the treatment is as comfortable as possible. However, we always recommend a patch test 24 hours before the treatment. This helps ensure you don't have an adverse reaction to the products used during the lash lift.

The ideal length of time between waxing sessions can vary depending on the area being waxed and your individual hair growth cycle. However, most people find that they need to wax every three to six weeks. It's important to allow your hair to grow long enough for the wax to grip it effectively, usually about a quarter of an inch. Regular waxing sessions can help to weaken the hair follicle, potentially leading to less hair growth over time.
