Pre treatment information
Aesthetic treatments OVER 18’s only ID will be requested prior to treatment
Consultations last around 15-30 minutes where we will discuss everything and carry out a patch test. If you wish to then proceed with the procedure a non-refundable booking fee is required to secure your booking. I can re schedule appointments with a minimum of 48 hours’ notice anything less than this will result in the loss of the booking fee and therefore will need to re book with a booking fee again. Booking fees are deducted off your treatment cost on the day of treatment.
Pre treatment information for Dermal Fillers and Botox
Pre -Treatment Information for Dermal Fillers and Botulinum Toxin
Avoid aspirin (e.g., Excedrin), vitamin E, St. John’s wort, and other dietary supplements including ginkgo, evening primrose oil, garlic, feverfew, and ginseng for 2 weeks.
Avoid ibuprofen (e.g., Advil, Motrin) and alcohol for 2 days.
If possible, come to your appointment with a cleanly washed face.
It is recommended to discontinue use of Aspirin, Motrin, Gingko Biloba, Garlic, Flax Oil, Cod Liver Oil, Vitamin A, Vitamin E or any other essential fatty acids at least 3 days - 1 week before and after treatment to minimise bruising/bleeding. Consult your GP prior to discontinuing any medications.
Avoid alcohol, caffeine, Niacin supplement, high-sodium foods, high sugar foods, refined carbohydrates, spicy foods, and cigarettes 24-48 hours before and after your treatment. These items may contribute to increased swelling or irritation.
If you have a history of cold sores with outbreaks occurring more than 4 times a year, it is recommended that you are pre-treated with medication prior to the injection treatments around or near the oral area. The medication will need to be initiated 3 days prior to your treatment visit. Please consult with your GP in obtaining the medication.
If you develop a cold/flu, cold sore, blemish, or rash, etc. in the area to be treated prior to your appointment, we recommend that you please reschedule your appointment until it resolves.
It is recommended to discontinue Retin-A 2-3 days before treatment to avoid any increased redness and irritation.
It is recommended that you wait at least 2 weeks to have dermal filler treatments performed if you have previously had cosmetic treatments with laser, ultrasound, peels, facials, or microdermabrasion.
Be sure to have a good breakfast, including food and drink a minimum for 2 hours before your procedure. This will decrease the chances of light-headedness during your treatment.
You are not a candidate if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Thank you so much for taking time to read through the above points, I like to be thorough prior to procedure, as I do during and post procedure. PERFECTION is key to me.
