Pre Care

Dissolver

alert

Please do not arrive on an empty stomach. Come with a clean face, free of makeup, and hair secured away from your face so your provider can treat you comfortably and precisely. If helpful, please bring photos of yourself in normal settings without filters — both photos you do and don’t like — so we can better understand your goals.

Special Events

Please avoid scheduling important events within four weeks of your appointment. Swelling and bruising can last up to 1–2 weeks, and it may take up to a full month for tissue to settle completely.

If you have a history of cold sores (herpes simplex), please let us know in advance. We may recommend prophylactic treatment prior to your session to prevent an outbreak.If this will be unavoidable, we recommend rescheduling your appointment to ensure optimal healing and results.

PRE-CARE POLICIES

Before Appointment

Begin reviewing your calendar and medical history. If you have a history of cold sores, important upcoming events, or planned dental appointments, please review the notes above and let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly.

Before Appointment

To help minimize bruising and swelling, begin avoiding blood-thinning medications, foods, and supplements — unless prescribed for a medical condition.

Common blood-thinning items to avoid include:

  • Advil, ibuprofen, and Motrin
  • Almonds and almond milk
  • Fish oil
  • Garlic and ginger
  • Green tea
  • Salmon and sushi
  • Workout supplements and other nutritional supplements

If you regularly use pain relievers, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is safe to use, as it does not thin the blood. Always consult your physician before making changes, and avoid Tylenol if it is contraindicated with your medical history or current medications.

Begin taking Arnica to help minimize bruising and swelling, unless you are allergic or it is contraindicated with any of your medications or medical conditions (including high blood pressure).

Arnica is available in our office, at Vitamin Shoppe, or on Amazon. Please follow the dosage instructions on the label, and consult your provider or physician if you are unsure whether it’s appropriate for you.

Before Appointment

Avoid alcohol, as it can increase the risk of bruising.
