Following pre treatment advice is an important step to achieving the best possible results.
Your PMU pre-treatment advice:
Leading up to your appointment, it is important to keep yourself well hydrated and keep the treatment area well moisturised. You will also need to AVOID the following:
On The Day:
• Excess Caffeine
• Strenuous Exercise
24 hrs Prior:
• NSAIDS such as ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac. (However, please do not discontinue any prescribed medication without medical consent.)
• Alcohol
1 Week Prior:
• Anticoagulants such as aspirin & warfarin. (However please do not discontinue any prescribed medication without medical consent).
• Supplements that are known to thin the blood. • Fake tan application.
2 Weeks Prior:
• Botox in the treatment area. (You will also need to wait until your retouch is complete before having Botox).
1 Month Prior:
• AHA’s, retinol, tretinoin, chemical peels or any regenerating treatments such as micro needling within 3cm of the treatment area.
Additionally:
Brow Specific
• Arrive to your appointment with your everyday makeup (if you wear it) so that we can see how you usually draw in your brows.
• Do not tint your brows within the 2 weeks leading up to your appointment.
• Do not wax or thread your brows within the 48hrs leading up to your appointment.
Lip Specific
• Bring your desired lip shade or your ‘everyday’ lipstick/liner to your appointment with you.
• Moisturise your lips for 1 week prior to your treatment (as often as you like). Vitamin E oil is amazing for this - apply as a topical oil to your lips.

• If you suffer from cold sores, please call us to discuss.

• If you wear contact lenses, please remove them prior to your appointment and bring your glasses with you instead.
• Have any eyelash extensions professionally removed at least 48 hours prior to your appointment.
• Do not use lash growth serums in the 6 months leading up to your appointment.
• Do not wear any mascara or eye makeup on the day of your appointment.
