Frequently asked questions

  • Most treatments are instant, so you’ll begin to see results immediately after your treatment.

    l offer a complimentary 4 week follow-up appointment to assess the results of your treatment.

  • To enjoy the best results and to avoid any adverse reactions, it is important to follow your aftercare instructions. I will discuss aftercare with you during your appointment and provide you with a pamphlet to take home.

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women, those attempting to conceive, or individuals with muscular, neurological conditions (including Bell’s Palsy) or autoimmune disorders.

    Moreover, if you currently have an active cold sore, treatment isn't advisable. It's essential to wait until the cold sore has completely healed before proceeding.

    For individuals with a history of cold sores, I may discuss the option of taking preventative antiviral medication following your treatment.

    During your appointment, myself and the Doctor will thoroughly review your medications and medical history to ensure the treatment's suitability.

    If you're uncertain about whether a treatment is right for you, I recommend scheduling a Complimentary Consultation for personalised guidance.

  • Once you have had a consultation there is no further preparation required prior to your treatment. However, I do recommend avoiding the following:

    Waxing, bleaching or using hair removal in the treatment area for 24 hours prior to your treatment

    Laser therapy, dermal needling and invasive skin therapies for 1 week prior to your treatment

    Getting sunburnt

    Alcohol, anti-inflammatories and fish oil in the 24 hours prior to your treatment

    If you have an active cold sore or infection in the treatment area, you’ll need to reschedule your appointment.
