PRE CARE + aPPOINTMENT dAY

(24-72 HOURS BEFORE TREATMENT):

FOR ALL TREATMENT TYPES:

• IMPORTANT!!! Moisturize your treatment area 2-3 times a day and at least 3 days before your session. That will allow for a cleaner canvas and make the session go by much faster.
  • If you are coming back from ​your 1st session, use the aftercare product (or EVOO, extra virgin olive oil) as instructed 2 times a day to keep the area moisturized.
  • If you have dry/flakey skin, please exfoliate to remove all dandruff in the area 3 days before the procedure up to the day of your appointment.
• Healing takes about 7-14 days after each session.
  • If you are still flaking A LOT 3 days before your session, please let us know so we can reschedule the appointment.
  • If you’re flaking a little bit 72 hours before your session, please let us know so we can monitor and decide if you can come in or wait a few more days. You will lose your deposit if you come in with unworkable skin.

FOR SCALP TREATMENT:

• Hair:
  • Wash hair before coming in as you cannot wash head shower immediately after procedure.
  • Do NOT leave product in hair before the procedure (including hair fiber, hair spray, leave in conditioner).
• Haircut/hairstyle:
  • ​If you have a haircut you will adopt or continue going forward with after the scalp treatment, please come in with that haircut for best SMP outcome.
  • Make sure to provide at least 48 hours notice if you want to have our on-site stylist to cut your hair (price varies $15 per haircut, excluding when it’s free for your 1st complimentary consultation). Otherwise, make sure you get your haircut on the day of or day before your session and all sessions.
