you've schedule an appointment, how should you prepare?
Please come to every appointment with a clean, makeup-free face. Moisturizer is great, but give your skin a break, let it breathe and just come as you are. No judgment here! The importance of this is twofold: it helps prevent infection and it allows me to assess your skin needs and suggest treatments/skincare products that will benefit you.​
Please take the time to complete any online consent forms or health history forms before you arrive as that will assure that your appointment time isn’t wasted.
during your appointment...
After reviewing your health history, your goals and budget, we will start with your chosen service. If at any point you have questions or concerns, please always feel free to stop me and ask questions. I LOVE questions!
post service care.
Neuromodulator (Botox/Dysport/Jeuveau)
Stay upright for at least 1 hour after your treatment. Avoid touching/rubbing/massaging the areas treated for 24 hours, as this could move the neuromodulator into other, unwanted areas of the face and eyes. Avoid strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours after injections. Wash your face that evening using gentle patting motions, avoiding vigorous cleaning with hands or any facial cleansing devices.
Dermal Fillers
Stay upright for 24 hours. Avoid sleeping on the areas you had injected (think cheeks and lips). If you can, it’s easiest to sleep in a more upright position the first evening after your appointment. You can use ice packs on and off for your comfort. Please DO NOT massage the areas injected unless directed otherwise by me. Please avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours after your appointment.
Luxe Dermaplane Facials
Avoid any application of makeup for 24 hours post dermaplane as your skin heals. Please follow a gentle skin care routine for the first 48 hours after your procedure and avoid using any retinol containing products for 24 hours after your dermaplane.
