Pre & Post-Care Guidelines

Before your facial or hydrafacial, avoid sun exposure and exfoliation for 24–48 hours to ensure the best results. Refrain from using retinol or retinoids for at least 3–5 days to minimize irritation and sensitivity. Additionally, avoid laser treatments and chemical peels for at least 2 weeks prior to your appointment. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please inform your aesthetician before your service. Pregnancy-safe products and protocols will be used, for your safety.

After your facial or hydro facial, avoid washing your face for 4-6 hours, sun exposure, and makeup for 12-24 hours, and always apply sunscreen (SPF 30+). Keep your skin hydrated with a gentle moisturizer, and refrain from exfoliating or using harsh products for 3-5 days. Drink plenty of water, and avoid hot showers, saunas, or intense exercise for 24-48 hours. 

It's recommended to get a facial every 4 weeks. This timing aligns with your skin's natural renewal cycle, which typically takes around 28 - 30 days, helping to maintain healthy, radiant skin. However, the ideal frequency can vary depending on your age, skin type and concerns. For example, if you're addressing specific issues like acne, dryness, or hyperpigmentation, more frequent facials may be beneficial. 

Not suitable for individuals with active skin conditions like acne cysts, eczema, rosacea, or dermatitis, or those with sunburned, irritated, or compromised skin. Contraindications also include recent surgery or skin injuries, active cold sores, and those using strong medications like retinoids or Accutane. Additionally, individuals with blood disorders, circulatory issues, or severe allergies to skincare ingredients should avoid facials.  

Regular facials and hydro facials every 4 weeks offer numerous benefits, including deep hydration, improved skin texture, and enhanced radiance. Consistent treatments help maintain healthy, glowing skin by addressing concerns such as clogged pores, acne, fine lines, and uneven tone. With regular care, these treatments promote collagen production, leaving your skin refreshed, rejuvenated, and better equipped to handle environmental stressors.

Before waxing, avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and harsh exfoliation for at least 48 hours. Make sure the area to be waxed is clean and free of lotions or oils. If you’re using any topical treatments like retinol or acne medication, refrain from applying them to the area for a few days prior to waxing to prevent irritation. Additionally, make sure your hair is at least ¼ inch long for optimal results. Avoid caffeine or alcohol before your appointment, as they can make your skin more sensitive.

After waxing, avoid sun exposure, hot showers, saunas, and swimming for 24-48 hours. Keep the area clean and moisturized with a gentle, fragrance-free lotion. Avoid tight clothing and scratching, and if redness occurs, apply a cold compress or aloe vera to soothe the skin. 

The perfect length for a new waxing session is typically 1/4 inch (about the length of a grain of rice). This allows the wax to effectively grip the hair and remove it from the root, providing the best results. For optimal outcomes, it's recommended to schedule your waxing session every 4 weeks to ensure the hair has grown to the ideal length, ensuring a smoother and more effective experience. 

Waxing is not recommended for those with active skin conditions, sunburn, or broken skin. Avoid waxing if using retinol, acne treatments, or after recent chemical peels or laser treatments. It’s also advised to consult with a healthcare provider if you're pregnant or breastfeeding. 

Waxing offers smooth, long-lasting results by removing hair from the root, leaving skin soft and hair-free for weeks. It helps reduce hair regrowth over time, making future waxing sessions more effective. Regular waxing also exfoliates the skin, removing dead cells and promoting a healthier, more even texture. Unlike laser hair removal, waxing is suitable for all skin types and tones from all ethnicities, making it a versatile and inclusive option for everyone. 

Avoid using retinol, exfoliating products, or any harsh treatments on your brows for at least 48 hours, as these can make the skin more sensitive. Make sure your brows and/or lashes are clean and free of makeup, oils, and residue. If you're using any brow/lash serums or growth products, discontinue them a few days before your appointment for optimal results. Avoid sun exposure or tanning for 1 week prior.

Avoid getting your brows/lashes wet for the first 24 hours. Refrain from rubbing or touching them, and avoid applying makeup, oils, or harsh products to the area. Do not expose your brows/lashes to steam, saunas, or excessive sweating for at least 48 hours. Keep your brows/lashes clean and moisturized with a gentle, non-oily product. Please use a clean pillowcase and avoid sleeping on your side or face-down for at least 24 hours after your brow lamination treatment.

For brow/lash tinting, touch-ups are typically needed every 3-6 weeks, as the tint fades over time. Brow lamination usually lasts about 6-8 weeks before a touch-up is recommended, depending on hair growth. Brow design (shaping) may require maintenance every 3-4 weeks to keep the shape fresh. However, the frequency of touch-ups can vary depending on your individual brow growth and maintenance preferences. 

Not recommended for individuals with active eye infections or conditions (such as conjunctivitis or blepharitis), recent eye surgery, or known allergies to products used during lash or brow services. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please consult your healthcare provider before treatment.

Brow design is a customized shaping technique that defines and sculpts your brows to perfectly complement your facial features. Brow/lash tinting darkens the brows/lashes, giving them a fuller, more defined look, ideal for lighter brows or those who want a more polished appearance. Brow lamination smooths and lifts the brow hairs, creating a fuller, more uniform look that lasts for weeks, perfect for those with unruly or sparse brows.
 

Before your appointment avoid alcohol, caffeine, and blood thinners (like aspirin) for at least 24 hours to minimize sensitivity and bleeding. Refrain from tanning, waxing, or using exfoliating products on the area for a few days prior. Additionally, avoid laser treatments or chemical peels for at least 2 weeks before your appointment. Make sure your skin is clean and free of makeup on the day of the procedure, and inform your technician of any allergies or skin conditions. 

Keep the treated area dry for 5–7 days. Change your pillowcase on the day of the procedure and avoid sleeping face-down for 7 days. Avoid sun and UV exposure for 4 weeks and heavy exercise, hot showers, and steam for 7 days. Do not pick at scabs. Avoid makeup, sunscreen, and filling in patchy areas until healed. If lymph fluid appears, gently blot it with a clean tissue. Avoid facials, Botox, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion for 1 month. Apply only the ointment recommended by your artist. 

A touch-up is typically needed 4–8 weeks after your initial permanent makeup procedure. To maintain optimal color and shape, maintenance touch-ups are generally recommended every 1–3 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and proper aftercare. As fading occurs naturally over time, periodic touch-ups every 1-3 years help keep your results looking fresh.

Permanent makeup is not recommended for individuals with active skin conditions, certain medical conditions (such as uncontrolled diabetes or blood disorders), a history of keloid scarring, or known allergies to pigments used in permanent makeup. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please consult your healthcare provider before treatment. Please text a clear photo of your brows or lips to +1 (727) 242-3480 prior to scheduling for evaluation and approval.

Permanent makeup offers a long-lasting solution for enhancing your features without the daily hassle of applying traditional makeup. This technique involves cosmetic tattooing pigment onto the skin to create defined eyebrows, giving you a polished look that stays put. Ideal for those with busy lifestyles, or those with allergies or difficulty applying makeup, permanent makeup saves time while providing natural-looking, smudge-proof results that can last for years.  

When texting us the photo, please also include your desired technique and let us know if you have had any previous cosmetic tattooing on the treatment area (brows or lips). We will assess whether we can safely and effectively perform permanent makeup over existing work. If removal is recommended, we will inform you. Variations in pigment color and technique can affect the natural, consistent outcome we aim for, so removal ensures a clean canvas for optimal results. 

Before a body treatment, it's important to stay well-hydrated, avoid heavy meals for at least 1-2 hours prior, and limit caffeine or alcohol intake, as they can dehydrate the body. Wearing comfortable, loose clothing and getting plenty of rest the night before will also help you relax during the session. It's recommended to avoid intense exercise beforehand, as the body will already be working to eliminate toxins. This is not a medical treatment.

After your session, it’s important to support your body’s natural detox process. Be sure to drink plenty of water to help flush out any impurities released during the treatment. For the next few hours, avoid heavy meals, caffeine, and alcohol to give your system time to reset. Also, refrain from applying any products to the treated area to allow your skin to breathe and fully benefit from the session.

These body treatments are not recommended for individuals with acute infections, cancer—particularly involving the lymphatic system—severe heart or kidney conditions, blood clots, certain skin conditions, recent surgery, or pregnancy without prior medical approval. If you’re considering Cryo-Sculpting, it’s important that you do not have any implanted medical or electrical devices. In such cases, the Brazilian Body Detox may be a safer alternative. 

These non-invasive aesthetic treatments are designed to support skin health, promote the body’s natural processes, and enhance relaxation and overall well-being. Many clients report feeling lighter, and refreshed. These treatments are not intended for weight loss, though they may complement a healthy lifestyle or weight management program. They are not medical procedures. Results vary, and a series of treatments is typically recommended for best results.
