Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to prepare for my appointment?
Prior to your appointment there are a couple of things to bear in mind
FIRSTLY BE EXCITED - this is a time to celebrate your investment in you.
Secondly - do not drink alcohol for the 24 hour period prior to any treatment with Iris Medical Aesthetics please.
Next - For two days before avoid any skin topical products such as Tretinoin Retinol, Retinoids, Glycolic Acid, or any “anti-aging” product. Also avoid waxing, bleaching, tweezing, or using hair removal cream on the area to be treated 48 hours prior.
