Below are some suggestions to help you prepare for your treatment:

 

• Ensure that the hair to be treated is visible and long enough to be gripped onto with a tweezer.

• Exfoliate the skin the night before treatment, especially if you are prone to ingrown hairs.  We recommend this product for effective exfoliation: https://dgoldberg.myrandf.com/Shop/Product/ENPS125

• If possible, arrive make-up free.

• Avoid caffeine prior to treatment.

• Arrive with hydrated skin.

• Consider avoiding electrolysis during or prior to your menstrual cycle if you are more sensitive at that time.

• Think about taking a pain reliever an hour prior to treatment to make you more comfortable.

• Apply a numbing agent such as Super Numb, LMX or Emla an hour before treatment with an occlusion such as plastic wrap to increase efficacy.
