PRE-TREATMENT ADVICE
​
✔ Keep your lips hydrated as dry lips will heal patchy.
✔ Exfoliate 5-7 days prior and use coconut oil on the lips for 1 week prior.
✔ Drink plenty of water every day for 7 days leading up to your appointment.
✔ If you have a history of cold sores (herpes simplex), we advise you to contact your doctor to obtain the proper prescription medication to prevent such outbreak
✔ Alternatively, obtaining herpes medication - e.g. Zovirax from your local chemist and use one week before and one week after your treatment. This can help minimise an outbreak.
✔ Permanent Cosmetic treatments do not cause cold sores, however, if you carry the virus, it lays dormant in the body and can be aroused by the treatment.
✔ Bring along your favourite lip liner/lipstick to colour match on your appointment day.
​
✘ DO NOT drink any coffee or exercise on the day of your appointment.
✘ DO NOT use sun beds or expose your lips to direct sunlight for at least a week before and a week after your appointment.
✘ NO Lip wax or bleaching treatments should not be undertaken for at least a two-week period preceding your permanent cosmetic treatment.
✘ Having Juvederm or other lips fillers prior to the booked session needs clearance from the Juvederm technician and a minimum 4 weeks gap before our lips treatment or 8 weeks after.
