FAQ's
If I Am Breastfeeding Can I Have Other Treatments Also?
No, if you are still breastfeeding, we continue to treat the skin as if it is pregnant. This ensures that all treatments and products used are safe for both you and your baby.
If I Am Pregnant Can I Use AHA Or BHA Acids?
We advise against using AHA or BHA acids during pregnancy. While these ingredients are effective for exfoliation and improving skin texture, they may not be suitable for use during pregnancy. Due to the lack of clinical trials and data many skincare brands will advise against.
Can I Have A Treatment In The First 12 Weeks Of Pregnancy?
We wont treat clients who are in their first trimester of pregnancy. This is due to the first 12 weeks of pregnancy being a critical period of development but also our insurance provider will not allow this.
Can I Have Laser Treatments While Pregnant?
We wont treat clients for laser treatments while pregnant. The safety of laser procedures during pregnancy has not been conclusively established due to the lack of clinical trials and data therefore its best to err on the side of caution to protect the health of both you and your baby.
