AFTERCARE

 

It usually takes between 7-10 days for the skin to heal. While the skin is healing these aftercare instructions are recommended. Note that the skin will be extremely scabby while healing and it’s critical that clients do not remove or pick at the scabs.  

 

CLEAN 

1. Keep the removal area clean, dry and open to the air. Do not cover with anything to ensure a faster healing time. Only touch the area with clean hands.

 

2. Dab lightly over the area with saline 3 to 4 times a day using a clean cotton pador gauze. DO NOT USE ICE.

 

 KEEP THEM DRY

 4. Don't soak the removal area in water. You can shower asnormal but keep the area out of the shower spray the best you can and do not let the area stay wet for more than a few minutes. It is best to keep it dry but if you do get it wet gently pat dry. This includes steam and sweat, so no saunas or steam of any kind, and no sweaty exercise.

 

DON’T PICK

 5. All scabbing needs to fall off naturally. If you force or pick a scab off you will disrupt the process and possibly cause scarring. It is critical to keep the scabs on as long as possible to achieve optimum results.

 

BE PROTECTIVE

 6. Do not do anything to disrupt the healing process.

 

ONCE HEALED

 7. Now you can apply some Vitamin E Oil throughout the day for at least 4 weeks, or until the next session. Start this AFTER all scabs have fallen off. It is our goal to keep the area as dry as possible until all scabs have naturally fallen off.

 

FOR LIPS

 8. Avoid abrasive items like straws and cup lids while healing. Be mindful of facial expressions so you don’t create cracks in scabs.
