Treatment Guide

Before & After Your Treatment

Your comfort, safety, and results are our top priorities. Following these care guidelines helps ensure effective treatments and beautiful, smooth skin.

Before Your Treatment

24–48 Hours Before
  • Shave the treatment area completely
  • Avoid waxing, threading, plucking, or bleaching hair for at least 4 weeks prior
  • Do not use tanning beds or self-tanning products
  • Avoid excessive sun exposure to the treatment area
Skin Care Preparation
  • Arrive with clean skin — no makeup, lotions, oils, deodorant, or perfume on the area
  • Avoid retinol, acids, and exfoliants for 3–5 days before your appointment
  • Inform your technician about any medications or skin sensitivities
Day-of Tips
  • Stay well hydrated before your appointment
  • Wear loose, comfortable clothing if a larger area is being treated
  • Avoid caffeine if you are sensitive to heat or discomfort

After Your Treatment

First 24–48 Hours
  • Avoid hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and intense workouts
  • Do not scratch or exfoliate the treated area
  • Apply soothing aloe vera or a calming product if the skin feels warm
  • Keep the area clean and moisturised
Sun Protection
  • Avoid direct sun exposure after treatment
  • Apply SPF 30 or higher daily to the treated area
  • Avoid tanning beds and self-tanners throughout your treatment series
Hair Shedding
  • Treated hairs may begin shedding within 1–3 weeks — this is normal
  • Do not wax or pluck between sessions
  • Shaving is perfectly fine if needed between appointments
Getting the Best Results
  • Hair grows in cycles, so multiple sessions are needed for lasting smoothness
  • Keep to your recommended treatment schedule for optimal results
  • Reach out to us between sessions if you have any concerns — we're always happy to help
