Before the procedure
- Tell us if you are susceptible to cold sores or fever blisters around the mouth since the procedure can trigger breakouts in at risk individuals. If that is the case we will prescribe a medication to prevent a breakout.
- Avoid medications or supplements that can affect blood clotting such as aspirin, ibuprofen or vitamin E for 10 days before surgery.
- Avoid smoking for two weeks before and after the procedure.
- Discontinue the use of Retin-A, retinol-type products, exfoliating products, and glycolic and alpha-hydoxy acid products, 1 week prior to your treatment.
- Wait at least one week after neuromodulator/Botox injections before having an energy-based treatment to the area injected.
- If you are prescribed hydroquinone 4% before a Morpheus8 treatment, start it 14 days before the procedure using it twice a day, and stop it 48 hours before the procedure.
- Do not wear jewelry or contact lenses on your treatment day.
- Please come to the clinic with clean skin (clean shaven if male).
- The treatment area should be free of any makeup, creams, perfumes and lotions.
- Wear comfortable clothes, and ideally a button-down shirt.
