- Niacinamide
- Chemically Exfoliating Regimens
- Vitamin E Supplements

- Alcohol
- Aspirin
24 Hours Pre-Appointment
The day prior to your appointment, you’ll want to limit caffeine, alcohol and non-Tylenol pain relievers. This would include the following:
- Ibuprofen
- Aleve
- Caffeine (coffee, energy drinks, natural supplements)
Day of Appointment
The day of your appointment, you’ll want to maintain everything previously mentioned. For supplemental pain management, Tylenol is recommended, as this will not act as a blood thinner.

Other Services
Please ensure that your permeant cosmetic professional has been made aware of any other services you may have recently received, such as Botox or filler. Some services, such as Botox or filler, may require that your appointment be pushed back.
