Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

 FACIAL FAQs

  • Yes, so long as you inform me so I can avoid products that are not pregnant/breastfeeding safe

  • Every 4-6 weeks. New skin cells are born in the deepest layer of the epidermis and move up to the surface over about 28 days. By the time these cells reach the surface, they are dead and are shed off naturally, a process that can slow down with age. An accumulation of dead cells on the surface can lead to dullness, rough texture, and clogged pores. 

  • Do not use any actives for a week before your facial, especially tretinoin!

  • It is best to come to your facial with a bare face. Moisturizer & SPF is ok!

  • No, I go over your skin concerns and such before the facial, but you can book the consult if you have any in-depth questions about your skin that will take up more time. If during our pre-facial chat, I determine the facial you booked is not suitable for you, I will choose what facial would be best for your skin.

    *Acne Bootcamp does require you to book the acne bootcamp consult as it is a serious 6week program. 

 SPRAY TAN FAQs

  • Your tan will last on average about 7-10 days. You can reschedule as soon as your last tan is faded and you are prepped for your next.

  • DHA, or Dihydroxyacetone, is the main active ingredient used. It is a simple carbohydrate that is often derived from plant sources such as sugar beets and sugar cane. DHA works by reacting with the amino acids present in the skin’s top layer. This reaction produces pigments called melanoidins, which create the appearance of a tan.

  • Absolutely NO soap.

    A really slow rinse with luke-warm water is best. Only use your hands to remove the bronzer, and focus your attention to your legs, behind your arms, etc.

    The #1 cause for streaks is that the bronzer was not rinsed off properly and can stain the skin for a few days.

  • Only if the area is completely healed.

TEETH WHITENING FAQs

  • I apply Vitamin E Oil followed by 16% or 22% Carbamide Peroxide Gel. I then place a UV Light in front of the teeth which accelerates the whitening process. 

  • You can reschedule every 3-6 months. Time between treatments is dependent on lifestyle. For example, if you're an avid coffee/wine drinker you may need to come in for another treatment sooner.

  • Everyone’s teeth are different, thus, results will vary. That being said, most people will experience a 4-8 shade increase within their 30-60 minute treatment session.

  • Yes. Extensive clinical research and trials have shown that cosmetic teeth whitening is safe. It is recommended that no one under the age of 18 years, nor any women that are pregnant or breast feeding, have this treatment done.

  • No. There should be no tooth pain or sensitivity. If you are still worried you may have sensitivity, I recommend using Sensodyne toothpaste.

  • Yes. If you book with a friend you each receive $10 off your session. If you book yourself a second session, you will receive $10 off.
