How do I know which treatment is right for me?

We recommend starting with a consultation. During this session, we’ll assess your skin, discuss your concerns, and recommend the best treatment plan tailored to your needs and goals.

What should I do to prepare for my treatment?

Preparation will vary depending on the treatment. For most treatments, we recommend arriving with clean skin free of makeup or heavy skincare products. If specific preparation is needed, we’ll provide detailed instructions when you book.

Are the treatments safe for sensitive skin?

Yes, we offer treatments designed for sensitive skin and will carefully tailor your experience to ensure your comfort and safety.
