Protect your skin from sun exposure and tanning 3–4 weeks prior to treatment, or use a minimum SPF 30 sunscreen regularly to prevent skin damage and complications during and after the treatment.
Refrain from using any topical products that may irritate your skin, such as retinoids, exfoliants, alpha or beta hydroxy acids, or other harsh skincare products, for 2–3 days before your treatment. Switch to gentle skincare options during this period to keep your skin calm and balanced.
If your medical condition permits, avoid using anticoagulant medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or other blood thinners for 7–10 days before your treatment. These medications can increase the risk of bruising and bleeding during the procedure.
Shave the treatment area before your appointment and ensure that all shaved hair is removed. Ensure your skin is thoroughly clean, free of any lotions, oils, makeup, or other products.
Protect the treated area from direct sun exposure and apply SPF for 3 weeks after the treatment.
You can apply a moisturizer after your treatment to help support the aftercare process and maintain skin hydration.
If your skin feels calm and isn’t showing any signs of irritation, you can apply makeup after your treatment.
