Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do before my wrinkle treatment appointment?
Avoid sun exposure for at least one week prior. Stop using retinoids and vitamin C serums 3-5 days before. Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin. Inform your doctor of any medications or allergies.
Can I take painkillers before wrinkle treatment?
Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and blood thinners for 24-48 hours before treatment as they increase bruising. Acetaminophen is generally safe. Always consult your physician first about your specific medications.
Should I eat or drink anything special before my treatment?
Eat a light meal beforehand to prevent dizziness. Stay well-hydrated the day before and day of treatment. Avoid alcohol 24 hours prior as it increases bleeding and bruising risk.
