First, you’ll meet with our provider for a one on one consultation. Our provider will examine your skin, and at this time, you should inform them of any skin conditions you might have. Conditions like eczema or inflammatory acne can affect the healing process after treatment. Our provider will review with you certain products, medications, and activities for two weeks leading up to the appointment for the procedure. Some of the most common things you should avoid include: - Drugs that increase your bleeding risk - Waxing - Chemical Peels - Collagen Injections - Ibuprofen (Advil) - Glycolic Acid - Direct Sunlight - Tanning Beds - Creams or other products that contain Vitamin A
