Questions & Answers
Care FAQs
Do I need to stop my medications before treatment?
Never stop a prescribed medication without talking to your doctor. If your doctor approves, avoiding alcohol and blood-thinning supplements like fish oil and vitamin E for a day or two before injectables can lower bruising. Tell us about every medication and supplement you take.
Why do I need to avoid the sun before laser and peels?
Tanned or sunburned skin is more sensitive and more likely to react to laser energy and peels. Avoiding sun and self-tanner for about 2 weeks beforehand keeps your treatment safe and effective.
When should I stop retinol before a treatment?
For peels, microneedling, CoolPeel and laser treatments, stop retinoids and exfoliating acids 5 to 7 days beforehand. For facials, 48 hours is usually enough. Restart once your skin has fully healed.
I get cold sores. Does that matter?
Yes, please tell us. Lip filler, microneedling, peels and CoolPeel can trigger a flare-up, so we may recommend an antiviral before your appointment.
Can I work out after my treatment?
Most treatments call for skipping strenuous exercise, saunas and hot yoga for 24 to 48 hours. Check the instructions for your treatment.
Who do I call if I have a question after my treatment?
