Bring along the lipstick you apply and any photos of the look that you want to achieve
Make sure your health is in good condition, a medical history form will need to be completed. I don't take pregnant or nursing clients because of unpredictability of healed results.
24 hours prior to your procedure, DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL or CAFFEINE
1 day prior to your procedure, DO NOT TAKE any blood thinners such as Ibuprofen, Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E, B6, Omega 3, Gingko Biloba, St. Johns Wort, evening Primrose unless medically necessary - you may resume immediately after the procedure
Avoid booking during your menstrual cycle IF it can increase your pain sensitivity
No lip injections 1 month prior to procedure.
1 day before the procedure scrub your lips with a moisturizing lip scrub. Keep them moisturized to get the best result (use vaseline, coconut oil or your favorite chapstick).
✔If you have EVER had a cold sore/fever blister, chicken pox or shingles, the procedure can activate the virus responsible for the eruption. You may wish to ask your physician for a prescription for 400 mgs. of ZOVIRAX or ACYCLOVIR. This should be taken 2 times a day for 2 days before and 4 days after the procedure; a total of six days. (Or as prescribed by your physician). This protocol may prevent or minimize an outbreak. For those wanting an alternative approach, the amino acid L-Lysine is available at health food stores and the dosage should be increased to double the recommended and taken 4 days prior and 4 days after the procedure.
