3D Areola Reconstruction

Do not take any aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oils, vitamin E, niacin, prescription blood thinners, or drink any alcohol or caffeine at least 48 hours before your procedure (Yes, there is caffeine in decaf coffee and tea!)

 

Discontinue use of AHA (chemical exfoliation), Vitamin A, Glycolic Acid, Retin-A, Renova, and Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHAs) at least 72 hours before the procedure.

 

 No lasers or chemical peels on or around the treatment area one week before the procedure.

 

 Do not have any chemical peel, dermabrasion, mesotherapy, or any other intense treatments which will cause faster skin cell rejuvenation and cause skin irritation 3-4 weeks before the procedure.

 

No Botox or fillers in the procedure area less than one week prior  - (Lips need a minimum of 6 months after injections and 4 weeks prior to the lip blushing procedure before getting any fillers).

 

You will need 5-7 days to heal. Expect an additional "perfecting" touch-up 6 weeks after the first appointment (the perfecting session is included).

 

Plan your procedure with your schedule/vacations/events! DO NOT schedule when you have an upcoming event that conflicts with healing.

 

If you have been on prescription Accutane in the past, you must wait at least one year before considering this procedure.

 

It is highly recommended that you avoid sun & tanning bed exposure for 30 days before & after your procedure. If you show up for your appointment with a new tan or a sunburn you will need to be rescheduled, and we will follow the cancellation policy. As your skin exfoliates from a sunburn, it will take the pigment with it.

 

If you are nervous, consider bringing headphones and music. Numbing will be used during the whole procedure.   Please eat before the procedure, since you want normal blood sugar levels for any tattooing procedure. You will not feel like eating after - (And you have to wait 3 hours for any food)
