Pre treatment advice – 

Sensitivity patch must be carried out at least 24hrs prior to treatment. 

Do not take aspirin, ibuprofen, Coumadin and alcohol for 48hrs prior to treatment. (Please consult with a doctor if medication is needed on a daily basis) 

Any waxing or threading should be performed at least 48hrs prior to treatment.

Some selling may appear after treatment and slight redness around the brow area from wiping away pigment, so we do recommend to not have any social plans that day. 

If you have a history or have ever had cold sores (herpes simplex), we advise you contact your doctor to obtain the proper medication to prevent such outbreaks. 

Permanent make up treatments do not cause cold sores but however, if you carry the virus, it lay dormant in the body and can be aroused by the treatment. 

Lip waxing or bleaching treatments should not be undertaken for at least a 2 week period preceding your permanent make up treatment.
