*Epilation by Pricella limits the procedures that are offered to women who are pregnant. If you are currently pregnant or become pregnant during your treatments, please let us know in advance. We may need to modify or postpone your treatments until after you give birth.
*For all hair removal treatments, if you have not seen hair regrowth in the treatment area contact us a minimum of two days prior to your appointment to reschedule for a later date.
ELECTROLYSIS
For electrolysis, we need there to be three to four days of hair growth present when you arrive at each of your sessions. Once you begin sessions you can no longer tweeze, wax, epilate or thread the area being treated. We recommend not tweezing two weeks prior to your first treatment.
Chemical peels or facials should be avoided one week before and one week after treatment of the same area.
Treatments should be repeated every two to four weeks for maximum effectiveness.
Electrolysis works best when the hairs are in the active growing phase. For the maximum results, we recommend not waiting more than two to three weeks once you have seen the new hair growth appear.
Pre Care
- Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water to keep moisture in the skin.
- Do not shave for at least 2-3 days prior to your appointment. The hair must be long enough to be removed with tweezers during the treatment.
- Once you have started electrolysis, areas being treated may not be waxed or tweezed. You can shave or cut in between treatments.
- Avoid sun exposure for 48 hours prior to treatment. Sunburned skin can not be treated.
- Avoid stimulants such as coffee the day of your appointment, as this could make you more sensitive to pain.
- Please remove all make up prior to face treatments.
Post Care
- Your skin may appear red and slightly puffy immediately after treatment, but this will disappear within the first 1-2 hours.
- Avoid sun exposure for at least 48 hours after treatment. This can result in changes in pigmentation. Always use sunblock.
- Avoid touching, rubbing, or scratching the treated areas.
- Aloe gel can be applied to the skin for the first 3-4 days after treatment to help the healing process.
- If tiny “pimples” or white heads appear, use warm compress on them and apply any antibiotic cream, like Neosporin, once a day for a couple of days. This is a normal reaction and they will heal on their own.
- If scabbing occurs, do not pick these areas. Apply antibiotic cream or aloe gel.
- Do not use makeup or deodorant in the treated area for 24 hours after treatments.
- Do not wash or use alcohol-based products on the treated area for 1-2 days. If needed, wipe the area with witch hazel.
- Avoid workouts, pools, saunas or hot tubs for at least 48 hours after treatment. Sweat can lead to bacteria entering your hair follicles, causing pimples.
