HOW TO PREPARE

PLEASE READ THE PRE-PROCEDURAL INSTRUCTIONS AND SCHEDULE YOUR APPOINTMENT ACCORDINGLY.

FOR EYEBROWS AND LIP BLUSH & Liner

• Do not consume caffeine and alcohol for 24 hours prior to your appointment to prevent excessive pain and bleeding which may result in poor retention. This includes coffee, decaf, tea, pop, energy drinks, etc.
• Do not take Advil (Ibuprofen), Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E unless medically necessary, 48-72 hrs prior to your procedure. Extra strength Tylenol can be taken if you have low pain tolerance.
• Avoid Fish Oil, Primrose Oil, Prenatal Vitamins, Nutritional Shakes (Shakeology, etc), “Hair, Skin, Nail” supplements for a minimum of 48 hours prior to procedure.
• Discontinue Retin-A, and Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) at least 6 weeks prior.
• No chemical peels, laser skin resurfacing at least 4 weeks before your appointment.

EYEBROWS

• No brow waxing, tinting or threading one week prior (the more natural hair growth you have, the better).
• Do not get botox 4 weeks before and after this procedure.

LIP BLUSH

It is optional, but recommended that clients take an anti-viral medication each time they receive a lip procedure. Although you may not have a history of cold sores, the Herpes Simplex Virus could still be present in your body without being active. It is possible that a cold sore outbreak could be triggered by the procedure. If you choose to obtain a prescription for anti-viral medication before our procedure, prior to your appointment you will need to inform your physician that you are getting permanent cosmetics applied to your lips. Take the medication as prescribed by your doctor. Examples of antiviral medications include: Zovirax, Famvir, and Valtrex. Your doctor may also not recommend  taking anti-virals for this procedure. Previous history to cold sores does not mean you will get a cold sore but a possibility.

• Please allow 6 weeks in between lip fillers before or after this procedure.
• Must wait 6 months after lip implant and get written clearance from your surgeon.
• Prior to your appointment exfoliate your lips for 7 days with a lip scrub and keep lips moisturized.

Lash Enhancement

• Avoid lash serums, retinol, or glycolic acid around the eyes.
• No lash extensions — must be removed at least 3 days before.
• No tanning or sunburns on the face.
• No Botox or fillers around the eyes for at least 2 weeks.
• Do not wear waterproof mascara the day before or of your appointment.
• Stop wearing contacts on the day of the procedure — bring glasses if needed
