Before & Aftercare

Before sugaring and waxing

• Allow enough hair growth: roughly 5 mm for sugaring; professional wax may remove hair from about 2 mm.
• Avoid strong acids, exfoliation, tanning and unnecessary skin irritation immediately before the service.
• Come with clean, dry skin and avoid heavy oils or moisturisers on the treatment area.
• Disclose retinoids, peels, laser, medications and relevant medical or skin conditions.

After sugaring and waxing

• In the first 24 hours avoid hot baths, saunas, spas, swimming and heavy exercise.
• Avoid perfumed products, tanning, direct sun and tight clothing that rubs the skin.
• Do not scratch freshly treated skin. After roughly 48 hours, if skin is calm, start gentle exfoliation and moisturising.
• If irritation becomes severe, spreads or appears infected, seek medical advice.

Before electrolysis

• Leave about 3 mm of visible regrowth, and avoid tweezing or removal from the root.
• Shaving or trimming between visits is acceptable.
• Arrive hydrated with clean skin and minimal makeup.
• Tell Adina about medications, treatment contraindications and skin procedures.

After electrolysis

• Keep the treated area clean; avoid picking, friction and unnecessary touching for 24–48 hours.
• Avoid makeup on treated facial areas for at least 24 hours if practical.
• Avoid excess heat and direct sun while the skin settles.
• Tiny red marks or minor reactions can occur; do not pick healing areas. Seek medical advice if you have concerning signs of infection.

Pregnancy and sensitive skin

Pregnancy, menstruation, medication and some skin conditions may affect sensitivity and suitability.

Tell Adina before the appointment if your skin has changed or if you need modified positioning or extra breaks.
