PERMANENT MAKE UP
Permanent make up also called a cosmetic tattoo or micropigmentation, is a cosmetic procedure to create long-lasting eyeliner, lipliner or eyebrow definition. There are several different techniques and methods to choose from and we will help you decide which one works best for your personal needs. MICROBLADING is a manual, semi-permanent technique of hyper-realistic eyebrow drawing in which eyebrow shape is calculated according to face morphology and golden proportion (phi 1.618). It is manual process of inserting pigment below epidermis and the upper part of the reticular dermis of the skin. This procedure is performed manually using sterile disposable tools and using pigment that matches the natural color of the client's eyebrows. The result is very realistic because we follow only natural hair growth of eyebrows during the work, we create the desired fullness and shape of the eyebrows. How long the pigment will last depends most on the oilnes of the skin. The more oily the skin, the shorter the pigment retention. Sweating and sun exposure also affect pigment retention. On average, the expected time for a new pigment refresh is 10 tto12 months. If the skin is oily, it may take up to 9 months. The top up of the pigment session is fully made 5 weeks after the initial treatment and then the pigment that has been lost in the meantime should be added. If the skin is problematic and oily, several such corrections can be made. It is of great importance to follow the instructions of post treatment care, on which the success of the treatment also depends. AFTER CARE: DAY 1-3 Don not wash , wet or moisturise your eyebrows at all. Keep them DRY and CLEAN No excercise. DAY 1-14 No sun exposure. No swimming. No sound, jacuzzi and sunbed.

See you at the top up session! Now you can wash your eyebrows like rest of the face. Keep using 50 factors UV protection. OMBRE BROWS Ombre brows is a technique of eyebrows shading performed with Permanent Make-up device. Pigments are used to achieve very natural 'soft powder' effect. This way of shading gives the most natural soft result which replaces a daily make up and saves time for you. Top up session is required after 5 weeks. Some skin types might need more top up then one for addition cost. Everything will be discuss with you at the initial consultation where the patch test will be carried on.

ANTI WRINKLE INJECTIONS
BOTOX is one of the most widely known brands of botulinum toxin injections. There is many more brands producing the same substances but just under diffrent logo. Botulinum toxins are neurotoxins that affect nerves and cause muscle weakening. You might get a botulinum toxin injection for cosmetic or medical reasons. Botox blocks nerve signals to muscles. As a result, injected muscles can’t contract (tense up). These effects are always temporary, but can last for several months. The muscle injected depends on the primary area of concern. Several areas can be treated in one session. Botox cosmetic injections are used to address signs of aging. This treatment can smooth fine lines and wrinkles in several areas of your face.

VITAMIN INJECTIONS
Vitamin injections are a concentrated dose of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They can be taken in tablet form or given intramuscularly as an injection. Many supplements and vitamins are not completely absorbed by our bodies through ingestion and thus intramuscular injections are helpful in increasing levels faster and more effectively in patients. Vitamin injections provide a variety of benefits, from improved immune system functioning to enhanced energy levels and improved overall well-being. We offer a wide selection of injections like Biotin, Vitamin B12, C and D.
DERMA FILLERS
Dermal fillers are a cosmetic treatment which involves small injections. They are used to add volume to the soft tissue in the face – in areas such as the cheek, mouth, lips, around the eye and the jawline – combatting signs of ageing by filling in wrinkles, as well as thinning lips. They use a gel which includes hyaluronic acid. How do dermal fillers work? As time goes on, our bodies produce lower amounts of the proteins which give us a youthful look – namely elastin and collagen. Dermal fillers work to smooth the deep lines in the face which appear as wrinkles. This injectable treatment is able to add volume which has been lost in these areas since elastin and collagen production has dropped. In this way, dermal fillers are able to enhance the appearance of the face, adding ‘lift’. One Week Prior to Lip Injections Avoid blood thinning over-the-counter medications such as aspirin, Motrin, ibuprofen, and Aleve. Avoid supplements, including St. John’s Wort, Gingko biloba, primrose oil, garlic, ginseng, and Vitamin E. 2 Days Prior to Injections Avoid topical products such as Tretinoin (Retin-A), Retinol, Retinoids, Glycolic Acid, or any “anti-aging” products. Avoid waxing, bleaching, tweezing, or using hair removal cream on the area to be treated. Do start taking Arnica two days prior to the procedure. (This is not required, but it will help to lessen bruising.) 24 Hours Prior to Injections Do not drink alcoholic beverages 24 hours prior. General Recommendations If you have previously suffered from facial cold sores, there is a risk that the needle punctures could contribute to another eruption of cold sores. Please let your physician assistant know if you are prone. Do not use dermal fillers if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, are allergic to any ingredients, or suffer from neurological disorders. Please inform us if you have any questions about this prior to your treatment PLEASE CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY IF YOU: Have fever and/or chills Have discolored blotches in areas not injected Have blanching of injected areas Notice the area appears red and/or hot to the touch Have severe or increasing pain
SKIN BOOSTERS
We offer a wide range of non-surgical face and body rejuvenation treatments to address a variety of skin concerns and improve the appearance of the skin. Some of the treatments that we offer include Profhilo, Lumi Eyes and Seventy Hyal. PROFHILO® treatment is revolutionary for skin rejuvenation, and you will be able to see and feel the results almost instantaneously. It improves the skin's overall appearance and remodels aged & sagging tissue. There are 5 injection points for your area of concern, they stimulate 4 different types of collagen and elastin due to the slow release of hyaluronic acid. It not only boosts and hydrates the skin, but it also remodels aging and sagging tissue. The stimulation results in significant tightening and lifting of the improved skin tissue. Results last between 6-12 months and are visible after 4-6 weeks. LUMI EYES is a tissue stimulator designed for needle mesotherapy treatments around the eyes and the tear valley with a filling effect, but with no side effects in the form of lymphoedema. Lumi Eyes is a high-quality product that repairs damage to the dermis with polynucleotides with a strong tissue regenerating effect. The effect of the treatment is strong hydration and rejuvenation of the tissue, as well as the reduction of symptoms of fatigue and skin blueing. Polynucleotide PDRN is used to regenerate damaged tissues, moisturise, restore volume, and smooth skin. PDRN is a low molecular weight complex that affects the repair of cells and damaged tissues, homeostasis from the inside. The mechanism of action of the substance is to stimulate the active synthesis of collagen, which helps to restore the DNA chains and increase the production of its own elastin. Glutathione, in turn, is responsible for the antioxidant effects during the biorevitalisation procedure. Lumi Eyes is a high-quality injection product based on polynucleotides (obtained from purified salmon milk DNA) that repair damage to the dermis with tissue regenerating material. Ruthlessly destroys dark circles under the eyes, moisturises and fights fine wrinkles, as well as smoothing and lifting the skin under the eyes. As a tissue booster, it has a proven rejuvenating effect. Stimulation of the skin cells, collagen and elastin allows for a delay in the aging processes and strengthens the skin. It improves the firmness, density and quality of the skin in an extremely natural way. Dermaren Lumi Eyes stimulates the skin to self-regenerate.

Dermaren Lumi Eyes allows you to achieve a perfect effect after just one treatment. For better results, it is recommended to perform a series of 3 treatments with an interval of 4 weeks. SEVENTY HYAL 2000 works to treat the physiological depletion of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) via the infiltration of high molecular weight of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) back into the skin. As we age, we lose approximately 1% of our Hyaluronic Acid (HA) stores per year after the age of 30. Thus, resulting in fine lines and loss of facial volume. However, the high molecular weight of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) within Seventy Hyal 2000 (>2000 kDa) helps to replenish and rejuvenate the skin. Working as the perfect Hyaluronic Acid (HA) skin treatment to improve skin tone, texture and laxity whilst adding gentle volume. The longevity of results can vary between individuals however Seventy Hyal 2000 isn’t your typical skin booster. Results are expected to show almost immediately with full results showing two weeks post-treatment. During the next 2-3 weeks bio-stimulation improves elastin and collagen to improve overall skin texture and skin laxity. If, however, it is decided to not maintain the skin treatment with further top-up treatments – the skin will eventually return to its pre-treatment state over time. Regardless of age, gender and even skin type – these Hyaluronic Acid skin injections deliver incredible results for every skincare objective including reducing the appearance of fine lines. Due to the versatile properties of Seventy Hyal 2000, the skin injecting treatment will provide benefits whether you’re prone to dry, oily or combination skin.

HAIR LOSS TREATMENT
The microneedling mesotherapy is an effective treatment that halts hair loss and stimulates and restores hair regrowth in existing hair follicles. This treatment can aid the recovery of many symptoms which can cause hair loss.
NEEDLE MESOTHERAPY
Mesotherapy is a modern form of therapy that consists of injecting medicines, vitamins and minerals as close as possible to the area that needs treatment. It is an astonishingly effective technique in aesthetic medicine as it treats layers of the skin, which are hardly penetrated by other non-invasive treatments.
PLASMA FIBROBLAST
Phi-Ion treatment is based on the creation of a series of minute dots adjacent to the tension lines on the skin, this process triggers an instant contraction and tightening of skin fibers to create a lifting, remodeling and rejuvenating effect. Phi-Ion pen uses the plasma state of matter. The principle involves the ionization of gases from the atmospheric air to create micro electrical discharge causing sublimation (direct turn solid substance in gas) of the excessive/sagging superficial skin layer. This method can be used to treat specific areas of concern without damaging the surrounding tissue or applying unwanted heat energy to them. Plasma is much less invasive than laser. Phi-Ion provides an effective non-surgical blepharoplasty (baggy eyelid correction) and can be used for non-surgical neck-lift, scars treatment including acne scars as well as wrinkles tensioning. PLASMA PEN AFTERCARE & POST TREATMENT GUIDELINES Please ensure you read and follow the advice provided. Like most skin rejuvenation treatments, there may be some side-effects but the post-treatment downtime and recoveryfrom Plasma Pen - plus the end result - is frequently shown to be far superior to treatment with other devices. However, we are not in control of what you do when you leave, and you must follow these important guidelines carefully if you wish to enjoy optimal results and protect your investment in Plasma Pen treatment. Before Your Treatment: • We recommend you avoid sun-tanning, spray-tanning, tanning injections and sunbeds for 4 to 6 weeks before your treatment. Ideally, we recommend using SPF-40 to prep your skin for 2 to 4 weeks before your treatment, especially if you are naturally darker skinned. You may even wish to consider a Pre-Treatment product using a Tyrosinase Inhibitor as this can help prevent overproduction of pigment in the skin. Tyrosinase Inhibitors are not just useful for those who suffer from hyperpigmentation but for all clients – even those with healthy, even skin. • Avoid any other type of procedures for 3-4 weeks on the same area which you intend to have treated with Plasma Pen, such as laser therapy, chemical peels, Botox/fillers, as this may prevent your treatment being performed. • Discontinue any use of topical Retin-A products a minimum of 4 days prior to treatment. • You may not look your absolute best during the initial healing process (usually 5 to 7 days). We recommend NOT exercising straight after a treatment because any heat, steam or sweat could add to the inflammation already present. Ideally you want to avoid excessive sweating for 5-7 days during the healing process. • We recommend you do not wear makeup in the area treated during the 5-7 day healing process because the application and/or removal of makeup could prematurely disrupt the scabs before they are ready to flake off. • Remove contact lenses and any eyelash extensions prior to treatment. Pre-treatment check list: • We recommend taking a high dose of Vitamin C supplements along with Magnesium Citrate, Zinc and Copper 2 weeks before treatment and 12 weeks over the course of the healing process as this will help give your immune system a big boost. In turn this helps you to repair and helps avoid hyperpigmentation. Emergen-C is a great option. • Set up an area in your bathroom that is clean to apply products to your skin that were provided. Have some Q- tips available if the eye area is treated to clean the eyelashes without getting the area treated wet. • You may want to use eyedrops if the eyes feel irritated. If doing so, tip your face so that the eyedrop comes out by the nose, use a tissue to gently blot in order to avoid getting the area treated wet. Make sure to use a fresh bottle eye drops or use the single portion sterile drops. Immediately Following Your Treatment: • We recommend applying small amounts of Silver Gel (morning, noon and evening) to soothe inflamed skin and heal. You may apply Stem Cell Serum once per day. It may also provide relief from possible itching and helps expedite a scar free healing process. • We recommend the only products you use during the 2 weeks post treatment healing stage are the products provided for you. It’s important use un-opened products until the skin is no longer pink. Other acceptable chemical free sunblock after the first 2 -12 weeks are: Coppertone Pure & Simple baby botanicles SPF50 (won’t sting eyes), BION Titanium Dioxide SPF 35 (won’t sting eyes). • Do NOT wash or get water over the treated areas until the scabs are off. Use the facial sponge with the face wash provided to clean areas of the face or neck not treated UNTIL the scabs come off. This is considered a “dry heal”. If the area becomes wet while showering, gently blot dry. • Stay away from heat & steam for the next 2 weeks while the skin may be pink and very sensitive. • There may be some mild to moderate swelling to the area(s) treated, especially around the eyes and within the periorbital region then moderate to excessive swelling is expected and common. • Swelling and inflammation for 1 to 5 days post-treatment is normal. If swelling lasts beyond the 5 days, contact your treatment provider. • Do NOT take any anti-inflammatory medicine, allergy medicine, Advil or ibuprofen for 2 weeks after your treatment. Tylenol is acceptable if needed. • Use ONLY fragrance-free detergent and fabric softener on bedding post treatment. NO dryer sheets of any kind. Please change your pillowcase every day or every other day for 1 week post treatment. It’s important to keep chemicals away from the area treated while keeping the skin as clean as possible. Keep your hair pulled back to keep off your area while healing. • We recommend that you do NOT apply cold packs or ice packs during the swelling period. Icing will diminish the outcome and inhibit the inflammation process that we want to happen naturally. Applying cold or ice packs on the skin could interfere with the mechanism of action performed by the device and the skin’s natural heat and healing process to achieve the desired result. Swelling is a minor inconvenience to achieve the desired outcome. • You may experience a “stinging” sensation in the treated area(s) immediately after treatment and up to 24 hours after treatment. This is normal and is simply the heat exiting the skin. It generally only lasts for about an hour or so. The hot feeling on the area treated can be felt up to 24 hours post treatment, this is normal. • After treating areas of the face, we recommend you sleep on your back with your head elevated to minimize swelling. If you have received treatment to your eye area, then it is important you sleep slightly elevated for up to 7 days as this can greatly reduce swelling. • It is highly unlikely you will ever get an infection from a Plasma Pen treatment as the wound we cause is not open. However, the first 12 hours post-treatment is of vital importance in protecting you from any kind of potential infection so please avoid any activities where you could expose yourself to contaminants, meaning going to the gym, public places where you can pick up germs by touching things then touching your skin. In the Following Days After Your Treatment: • It is normal for the area that has been treated to feel tight and dry. Occasional weeping will settle, tiny crusts will quickly form on the treated area. These may be visible for up to about a week. The crusts/scabs will become darker before the fall off. • Do NOT pick crusts off as this will delay the healing process and could cause scarring. • If washing your hair after treating areas on the face, we advise you do NOT stand with your face under a hot shower or direct water from shower head for the first 7 days. This could increase swelling. Try to avoid shower gels or hair products running on to your face as this could cause irritation. If water does get on the area treated, blot very gently with a clean cloth or towel. • Absolutely do NOT use any lotions or creams that are not provided for the next 2 weeks. • ONLY use the products you are sent home with for the next 2 weeks. The area must be kept free of oil to help the crusts form and then fall off the skin naturally. Do NOT rub or abrade the area(s) or use exfoliating products. This could result in scarring and/or pigmentation. • Shaving in the area treated should be avoided until it is fully healed. • If you have had treatment around your eyes, you should avoid wearing contact lenses for 72 hours after your treatment. • When the crusts have fallen off then your skin may be a little pink as it is fresh, new and rejuvenated baby skin. This pinkness will fade over time in as little as 2 weeks up to a few months. In rare cases it may take up to 6 months. • Once the crusts/scabs have all fallen off, use the sterile saline wipes gently over the area treated to clean the area. Continue using the saline wipes for 2 days. Continue to cleanse the areas NOT treated with the face wash provided for the next 2 days or until the skin looks as though it’s healing. • Once the scabs come off, you absolutely MUST now begin to apply SPF 50 while your skin is in the healing stages (pink in color) and you should continue to do so for at least the next 12 weeks (and ideally longer). The area(s) treated have produced brand new skin and may burn and/or pigment without adequate protection from the sun. Even while indoors - if your home has sunlight coming in the windows and you can not block the light, apply SPF 50. • SPF 50 should be worn before going outside, even with 5 minutes of sun exposure, as well as overcast days. Indoor lighting can cause risk of pigmentation on new healing skin. • You absolutely must NOT use saunas or sunbeds during your 12 week healing period and ideally for longer. Avoid the midday sun. • All other facial treatments on the same area should be avoided while your skin is healing. • Use of topical Retin A products should be avoided for 4 weeks. Other Important Aftercare Recommendations: • Avoid smoking and alcohol • Taking Vitamin C supplements over the course of your healing process can give your immune system a big boost and help you to repair. • Any additional treatments that may be required must only be performed once the skin is completely healed and has returned to its normal color. This usually takes about 12 weeks. • Plasma Pen treatment is the gift that keeps giving and, on top of the immediate rejuvenation, lifting and tightening affects you will likely experience, it can take 8 to 12 weeks for the full effects of your treatment to be seen. You may not actually require further treatment once the effects of your original treatment are more determinable. Please note that if you do require a longer period of time between treatments then the delay will not alter the outcome/results.
CHEMICAL PEEL
BioRePeelCl3 is an innovative biphasic medical device with biostimulating, revitalizing and peeling actions, with trichloroacetic acid (TCA) as the main ingredient. It promotes cell turnover by removing the outer corneal layer cells with selective action on corneocytes’ junction bonds. It has 14 active ingredients that contribute to a profound stimulation of skin replication and biosynthetic process, essential to counter the effects of skin aging and oxidative damage induced by UV radiation and pollution. BioRePeelCl3 FND (Face, Neck and Decollete) contains 35% of TCA.
FACIALS & LED THERAPY
We offer a wide range of facials to address a variety of skin concerns and improve the appearance of the skin. Our salon uses professional skincare products by THEO Marvee. LED therapy delivers energy in the form of light deep into the body to energise and improve cell activity, kick-starting the rejuvenation process and treating all layers of the skin as it penetrates, conditioning and hydrating the outer cells as well as boosting the deeper cells. It places the skin into a state of repair, which leads to an increase in the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. Hydration is also boosted, improving plumpness, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, and brightening the complexion, allowing the skin to look fresher. LED therapy also maintains youthful complexions and supports and repairs ageing skin, speeding up blood circulation which nourishes the treatment area, further boosting regeneration. It switches on your immune system, allowing the body to efficiently ingest compromised and damaged cells, reproduce healthy cells and aid call detoxification which helps in the prevention and treatment of glycation. LED therapy is effectively a 'first aid kit', healing wounds, reducing bruising and swelling and calming skin disorders (rosacea, psoriasis, eczema). It can be used to treat the most vulnerable and sensitive skin types and acts as an anti-inflammatory, whilst also strengthening the skin to help alleviate further symptoms. Even the most inflamed conditions can be treated; improvements in acne-prone skin, for example, can be seen from the first treatment. There are no adverse reactions or limitations to the treatment or pre- or post-guidelines. Most importantly, no damage is done to the skin to gain a result - the treatment is entirely non- invasive. However, although results are noticeable from the very first treatment, the cumulative effect means the longer the course of treatment, the better land the longer lasting) the results. Low wattage light is directed through the skin's epidermis and aimed at fibroblast cells, which produce collagen and elastin. The light stimulates the cell's own energy transport system, therefore helping to stimulate and renew the skin. RED: Anti-ageing, stimulates collagen, reduces fine lines, scar reduction and, rejuvenates skin. YELLOW: Tightens and tones, detoxifies and stimulates the sensory motor nervous system. BLUE: Treats acne, antibacterial, regulates oil glands VIOLET: Treats psoriasis, dermatitis and Vitiligo GREEN: Calms red skin, broken red capillaries, anti-inflammatory, Rosacea, traumatised skin (sunburn), aid in fading pigmentation and uneven skin colour. Light doses ranging in colour have been proven to be most effective for skin reiuvenation treatments that relate to rehabilitation of the microcirculation and encouragement of fibroblast activity.
BODY SHAPING
Body contouring, or body sculpting, helps eliminate fat and reduce cellulite in the desired areas of the body by the use of cold, heat and other methods like injections. We offer two types of non-surgical treatments: Cryolipolysis - commonly referred to as fat freezing, is a nonsurgical fat reduction procedure that uses cold temperature to reduce localised fat deposits in certain areas of the body that don't respond to diet or exercise. Fat dissolving injections - work by liquidating fat cells and destroying them permanently. The broken-down cells are then eliminated naturally through the lymphatic system. This treatment can target stubborn areas of fat anywhere on the body.
LASER HAIR REMOVAL
A diode laser uses semiconductor technology that produces coherent projection of light in the visible to infrared range. It uses a light beam with a narrow spectrum to target specific chromophores in the skin. Compared to other laser systems such as the Ruby and Alexandrite, the 800nm diode laser wavelength offers the deepest penetration levels and superior melanin absorption. These unique characteristics make the diode laser the most suitable technology for laser hair removal, enabling safe and effective treatment of all skin and hair types, in all body areas. Laser reduces hair growth, permanently – We recommend a minimum of 8 sessions. If you have the recommended number of treatments for your hair and skin type, you’ll see up to 90% hair reduction. Any hair that does grow back will be much finer and will grow back less frequently, which means smoother skin for longer. No more ingrown hairs – You won’t need to shave as frequently, minimising rashes or brittle stubble, and less waxing will also result in fewer ingrown hairs too. The hair must be targeted at a specific time during the growth cycle (the anagen phase) when the hair is still attached to the follicle so the root can be damaged or destroyed. Each hair will be in different phases of the 4-stage hair growth cycle at the beginning of your treatment, so you will need to have several sessions to target the hairs in the correct phase of growth. We usually recommend around 8 hair removal treatments spaced 4 or 6 weeks apart, depending on the area of treatment, to see long-term results. In some cases, you may need a few less or few more treatments. BEFORE TREATMENT •Avoid the sun 2 weeks before and after treatment. •You MUST avoid bleaching, plucking or waxing hair for 6 weeks prior to treatment. •Do not use Depilatory creams 1 week prior to treatment. •If have had a history of cold sores, zovirax may be used prior to treatment and continued one week after treatment. •The use of tanning cream must be discontinued 2 weeks before treatment. •Please shave the area the day before or morning before the treatments •No swimming in chlorine before and after the treatment AFTER CARE ADVICE •Avoid picking or scratching the treated skin. • Do not use any other hair removal treatment methods (waxing, electrolysis or tweezing) that will disturb the hair follicle at the treatment area for 4-6 weeks after treatment. •Do not expose skin to UV at least 2 weeks after the treatment Protect the skin with SPF 50 + or greater every day •Do not shave for 48-72 hours after the treatment •Avoid perfumed products, make up for 24h Makeup may be used immediately after the treatment unless there is epidermal blistering. •Avoid heat treatments like sauna, steam rooms, hot baths for 48h •Keep the are clean and dry, loose clothing-you can use purified talk for sensitive wet areas like bikini/under arm to keep it dry •Use cooling compress, ice, Aloe Vera gel to improve skin comfort and reduce swelling or redness. •No exfoliation, microdermabrasion, acid peels at least 1 week before the treatment •Do not exercise for 48 hours •No waxing, plucking or depilating between treatments. You can only shave. Immediately following treatment the area may show erythema (redness and some swelling) around the follicles which looks similar to large goose bumps. Around 2 or 3 weeks after a laser hair removal treatment 10 to 20% of the treated hairs will fall out. During the healing phase, the area must be treated delicately. Do not rub or scratch. If a crust develops let it fall off on its own. Apply a thin layer of aloe vera ointment to the treated area several times a day to keep it moist. Pat the area dry. Do not shave the area if is swollen or crusting. Apply ice when swelling occurs. Wrap the ice in a clean soft cloth. Discomfort or stinging may be relieved with Paracetamol. Do not take Ibuprofen or Aspirin as these medicines may react to the laser light. If you need to apply make-up on the area you must apply and remove it delicately. Excess rubbing can open the treated area and increase the chance of scarring. Avoid sports and strenuous exercise for two days following the treatment for laser hair removal. Walking is encouraged though. Avoid very hot baths, showers, steam baths or saunas, and don’t swim in strong chlorinated water for two or three days. Don’t use bleaching creams or perfume products for 24 to 48 hours. Avoid exfoliating or peels for one week. Try to avoid wearing tight clothing for two or three days. And if there are signs of infection like pus, tenderness or fever, contact the clinic. Post treatment skincare instructions must be followed to prevent any complications.
