Pre and Post Care Instructions

Neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau, Newtox)

Botox is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated expressions. Common treatment areas include the forehead, frown lines (glabella), and crow’s feet around the eyes. Off-label areas may include the masseter muscles (for jaw slimming), chin, platysmal neck bands, and around the lips for a subtle “lip flip.” Results typically last 3 to 4 months, depending on individual metabolism.

Instructions for Botox/Dysport/Jeuveau/Xeomin:

Avoid alcohol 24hrs.
Avoid blood thinner medications and foods such as aspirin, Ibuprofen,
vitamin E, fish oil, garlic, and gingko.
Avoid sun, sun tanning, and heat exposure 1 week prior.
Arrive with a clean face free of makeup and lotions.
Let your medical provider know of any medical conditions and/or
allergies.
Let your medical provider know if you have a history of cold sores, an
anti-viral medication may be prescribed prior to treatment.
Numbing cream and/or local anesthetic may be requested for comfort.
Plan major social events minimum 2 weeks post injection treatment.

Post-care Instructions

The results of your treatment can take up to 14 days to take full effect.

maintenance every 3-6 months depending on your metabolism.

Fillers (Hyaluronic Acid/Calcium Based Dermal Fillers)

Dermal fillers are injected at various depths of the skin to restore facial volume loss, contour, and smooth wrinkles. Dermal fillers can be injected to areas of the face such as temples, cheeks, laugh lines, lips, and marionette folds. Dermal fillers can also be injected off-label to areas such as the nose and chin. Dermal fillers are temporary, and expectations should be managed. For some patients, surgery such as facelift and/or brow lift may be the best approach.

Pre-Procedural Instructions

Avoid alcohol 24hrs.
Avoid blood thinner medications and foods such as aspirin, Ibuprofen, vitamin E, fish oil, garlic, and gingko.
Avoid sun, sun tanning, and heat exposure 1 week prior.
Arrive with a clean face free of makeup and lotions.

Fillers may last 6-12 months depending on the filler and area being treated.
If you experience severe pain, increasing dusky or white discoloration, mottling or severe bruising contact our office immediately.

Ultherapy

Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production and lift and tighten the skin. It targets deeper layers beneath the skin’s surface without disrupting the outer layer, making it suitable for areas such as the brow, lower face, jawline, neck, and décolletage. Ultherapy gradually improves skin firmness and contour over the course of 2–3 months, with continued improvement for up to 6 months. While results can be long-lasting, individual response varies, and some patients may benefit from repeat treatments. Expectations should be managed, and in cases of significant laxity, surgical procedures like a facelift or neck lift may offer more comprehensive results.

Instructions for Ultherapy:

Do not use the following products for 3 days before and after your treatment or until any redness has subsided: Retin- A, retinoids, or similar vitamin A compounds, harsh scrubs or exfoliating products and bleaching creams.
Avoid tanning or prolonged sun exposure for 2 weeks before and after treatment.
Avoid blood thinners and heavy alcohol 2 weeks prior to treatment.
Notify your provider if you have a history of cold sores/fever blisters.

Post-care Instructions

For optimal results, use our Bio-Skin AI Medical Grade Recovery Sheet Masks twice daily for 14 days. Clinically designed to accelerate skin regeneration and recovery, these masks are your go-to solution for healing and restoring radiant skin.
Use post procedure skincare and sunscreen SPF 30 or greater as directed following your treatment.
Cleanse the treated area with a gentle cleanser and lukewarm water.
Immediately after treatment your skin may appear red or slightly swollen in select areas. This may last a few hours or longer.
It is normal to experience mild tenderness, swelling, and bruising along the jawline for several days, in some cases longer.
Avoid facials, steam rooms, and saunas for 2 weeks post procedure.
Some patients may experience mild bruising, numbness, and shooting pains in the treated areas after the procedure. Some patients may have temporary welts that last a few days, in rare cases longer. If this occurs cool compresses can be applied to the area each hour for 5- 10 minutes

IPL

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and laser treatments use light-based technology to target specific concerns in the skin, such as hyperpigmentation, redness, sun damage, and unwanted hair. These treatments work by delivering controlled energy into the skin to break down pigment or stimulate collagen production. Commonly treated areas include the face, neck, chest, and hands. IPL is best suited for pigmentation and vascular concerns, while laser options can also address deeper concerns such as acne scars, wrinkles, and skin texture. Multiple sessions are often required for optimal results. As with all treatments, expectations should be managed, and more advanced skin laxity or damage may be better addressed with surgical procedures or combination therapies.

Pre-Procedural Instructions

Avoid sun exposure (apply sunscreen daily and do not tan at all – including self-tanner) for 4 to 6 weeks before and after treatments.
Do not use any retinol products (or products containing tretinoin) or exfoliants on the area to be treated for one week. Avoid Accutane (or isotretinoin products) for 6 months prior. Let your doctor know if you have a history of hyperpigmentation.
Please let us know if you have a history of fever blisters or cold sores. We will write you a prescription for a prophylactic antiviral therapy to start on the day of the treatment to prevent a flare up of cold sores. If you have a current prescription, Valtrex 500mg should be taken by mouth twice daily on the day before, the day of, and the day after your treatment.
Come to your appointment with a clean face- remove all makeup if the area to be treated is the face.
Photosensitizing medications including doxycycline and minocycline should be discontinued three days prior to the treatment.

Post-care Instructions

Avoid steam room, facials, and saunas for two weeks post procedure.
You may have a mild sunburn (burning) sensation following the treatment that is usually gone within a few hours. Skin redness is normal and may last a few days. There may be a slight amount of swelling.
Pigmented areas may begin to flake after a few days.
Your skin will be fragile for 2-3 days. Use gentle cleansers, do not rub the skin and avoid hot water during this time.
Do not use your Clarisonic or a loofah for one week.
Do not use any retinoids, tretinoins, alpha or beta hydroxy products, vitamin C products, scrub, exfoliate, or have chemical peels performed on the areas treated area for one week. Makeup can be applied immediately (if the skin is not broken) we recommend mineral based makeup.
Avoid the sun and use sun block.
Avoid excessive heat or friction to the treated area (heavy exercise, saunas).
Sun spots and age spots will DARKEN with the IPL treatments BEFORE they begin to respond and resolve. This is expected and a normal part of the IPL process. Do not pick these spots once they become dry. They will lift and fall off on their own. Avoid dental work 30 days after treatment.
For optimal results, use our Bio-Skin AI Medical Grade Recovery Sheet.
Masks twice daily for 14 days-clinically designed to accelerate skin regeneration and recovery, these masks are your go-to solution for healing and restoring radiant skin.

Lasers (Co2, Erbium, YAG)

The Co2/Erbium/YAG Laser is a precision skin resurfacing treatment designed to remove the outer layers of damaged skin and stimulate collagen production. It targets fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, and texture with minimal thermal damage—making it ideal for both light and medium-depth resurfacing.

Skin texture, tone, and clarity will improve over the following 2–4 weeks.
For optimal results, follow the full treatment plan and maintenance guidelines provided by your provider.

Microneedling with PRP

Microneedling with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is a collagen-stimulating treatment that uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, enhancing absorption of PRP and triggering the body’s natural healing response. PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood and is rich in growth factors that promote skin regeneration. This treatment can improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and overall tone. Microneedling with PRP is typically performed on the face, but can also be used on the neck, décolletage, and other areas. Results are gradual and multiple sessions may be recommended. Expectations should be managed, as deeper wrinkles or laxity may require additional treatments or surgical intervention.

Pre-Procedural Instructions

Sun exposure and/or usage of a tanning bed, including self-tanning products must be avoided for a minimum of 24 hours before and after the treatment, and preferably for up to 1-2 weeks to minimize the risk of post treatment temporary dyspigmentation (darkening or lightening of the skin). Please be advised a treatment will not be administered on sunburned skin.
Avoid Aspirin, anti-inflammatory medications (i.e. Ibuprofen, Aleve), blood thinners, herbal supplements, Vitamin E, and Fish Oil for at least one week prior to and the day of microneedling to minimize bruising risk- you may restart these the day following your treatment. Accutane should be discontinued for a period of at least 6 months prior to and during the course of any microneedling treatments.
We recommend pretreating your skin with Vitamin C, sunscreen, and retinols at least 4 weeks before treatment.
Stop any retinols, topical antibiotics, exfoliants, hydroquinone and benzoyl peroxide products 72 hours before your treatment.
Eat a healthy meal and drink at least 4-6 glasses of water (8 ounces or more) 48 hours before your treatment (Eat dark, leafy, green vegetables and increase your iron and vitamin B intake).
If you have a history of cold sores, we may recommend prophylactic oral antiviral therapy in the form of Valtrex or Famvir to prevent an outbreak. If so, we request you follow the directions of your prescription. efficacy, we recommend a series of 3 to 6 treatments, administered at 4-6 week intervals.

Post-care Instructions

Immediately after treatment your skin will be red, have pinpoint bleeding, and will feel like a fresh sun burn or wind burn. The skin may feel tight and sensitive to the touch- some of the most common side effects of treatment include mild redness, localized swelling, and dryness.
The following day you may have pinpoint scabbing. The treated area(s) may darken and flake away within one week. You will likely have 2-3 days of social downtime post treatment.
Clean glasses frames, cellphone screens, and anything else that comes into direct contact with the treatment area.
Avoid picking or exfoliating the area and allow old/dry/dead skin to flake off naturally.
Avoid makeup for at least 24 hours after treatment to avoid irritation; only mineral makeup may be applied after.

PRP to Scalp

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) to the scalp is a regenerative treatment used to promote hair growth and improve hair thickness in individuals experiencing thinning or hair loss. PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood and is rich in growth factors that help stimulate inactive hair follicles and support healthy hair regrowth. It is most commonly injected into areas of the scalp affected by androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss). A series of treatments is typically recommended, with maintenance sessions as needed. Results are gradual and vary between individuals. Expectations should be managed, as PRP may not be effective in cases of advanced hair loss, where surgical options such as hair transplantation may be more appropriate.

Drink at least 1.5–2 liters of water the day before, the day of, and the day after treatment. Hydration helps your body flush out the disrupted fat cells.
Refrain from alcohol and caffeine for 24–48 hours before and after your session to maximize lymphatic drainage.
Avoid large meals at least 2 hours before treatment.
Keep the treatment area clean and free of products on the day of your session.
Avoid Menstrual Cycle Area: For abdominal treatment, avoid scheduling during your period if sensitivity is a concern.

Post-care Instructions

Drink at least 2 liters of water daily for the next 3 days to help flush out fat through your lymphatic system.
Light Exercise Recommended: 20–30 minutes of light activity (like walking) within 4–6 hours after treatment helps stimulate lymphatic drainage.
Avoid Alcohol, Caffeine, and Sugary Drinks: For 48–72 hours posttreatment, to support detoxification.
No Hot Showers or Saunas: Avoid excessive heat (like saunas or hot tubs) for 24 hours.
Avoid Heavy Meals Post-Treatment: Stick to light, healthy meals to support your metabolism. Gentle Massage (Optional): A light lymphatic massage may help enhance results and reduce any mild bloating or fluid retention.

Skin Tag/Mole Removal

Post-Procedural Instructions

First 24–48 Hours: Keep the area clean and dry. Gently cleanse with mild soap and water once daily. Do not pick or scratch. A scab will naturally form—avoid disturbing it to prevent scarring or infection. Apply antibiotic ointment (like Bacitracin or Polysporin) twice a day to keep the area moist. Avoid makeup, harsh products, or exfoliants on the treated area.

1–2 Weeks Following Removal: Continue applying ointment until the scab falls off naturally. Avoid direct sun exposure. Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ on the area daily to prevent hyperpigmentation. Do not soak the area (e.g., in pools, saunas, hot tubs) until fully healed. No strenuous exercise that may cause excessive sweating or friction to the area.

What to Expect: Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness for 2–3 days is normal. A scab will form and fall off naturally within 5–10 days. The area may appear pink for several weeks as new skin forms.
