CARE
Please be aware that to undergo any treatment at Aesthet Studio you must agree with Aesthet Studio's disclaimer located in Disclaimer.
Consultation
It is compulsory for treatment clients to have an extensive consultation first:
Recording all medical history and conditions.
Assess if the treatment is appropriate for you.
Explain the process and what to expect.
Detail pre and post treatment care instructions.
Perform a test patch (this will allow you to feel the treatment on your skin so we can see how you respond).
Because certain health conditions, medications, supplements and lifestyle factors may affect treatment, you will be required to complete a NeoGen™ Evo Consent Form for qualified assessment prior to any treatment.
Pre-Treatment Care
In the lead up to your treatment ensure you:
Moisturise the area to be treated twice a day with hydrating cream/lotion
Drink about 2 liters of water a day for two days prior to treatment, for an effective clinical result (the result depends on the degree of skin hydration)
Apply SPF 30 daily for 2-3 weeks and avoid straight sun exposure prior to treatment
Females: Remove hair from the area to be treated one day before treatment
Males: Remove hair from the area to be treated on the morning of the treatmentDo not use make up, perfumes or aftershave on the area to be treated on the day of treatment
Do NOT wear contact lenses during treatment of the periorbital area
Your aesthetician will take all steps to ensure total comfort for your treatment. If at any point you feel discomfort, please inform them immediately.
Post-Treatment Care
Exposure
SPF 30+ sunblock is a must (apply daily and reapply during the day).
Avoid being outside, and when outside also use sunglasses and a hat.
Avoid direct sun exposure to the treated area for 2-3 weeks following the treatment.
Avoid exposing your treated skin to extremes of heat and cold.
Cleaning
Avoid hot showers.
Only wash the treated area with mild cleanser and water.
Topical/Oral
Do not use oral or topical anti-inflammatory (including Aloe Vera) medications, if you don’t need to.
Clients who take regular prescription oral anti-inflammatory medication should continue to do so as necessaryDo not use oral or topical steroids, if you don’t need to..
Do not apply ice packs after treatment (a cold water cloth can be applied for a few minutes)
Hydrate your skin for 4 days by drinking plenty of water (1.5-2 litters a day) and applying hydrating moisturiser twice a day (moisturising your skin will prolong the flaking progress).
Do not apply any concentrated Retinol/Vitamin A skincare for 2 weeks.
Activities
Avoid heated yoga, saunas, pools, spas and getting over heated for 48 hours following treatment.
Possible side effect after treatment
With certain skin types and in a small percentage of cases, pink dots may appear post treatment. These may darken and fade or fade without darkening in 1-2 weeks. It is completely normal, part of the regeneration process and the skin’s response to the plasma irradiation.
PRECAUTIONS
For the majority of people, nitrogen plasma based treatment has been accepted as a safe and effective treatment. However, like all treatments, certain contraindications need to be considered for your own safety.
Please ask your aesthetician about your conditions before booking. If you are taking any medication or have an existing medical condition or concern not listed, please consult with your doctor first.
All clients new to NeoGen™ Evo Nitrogen Plasma treatments, will need to undergo a patch test two days prior to treatment.
