What to do before & after your appointment

Cancellation Policy

I have reserved time and space especially for you and require 24-hour notice of any appointment cancellation. If less than the required notice is given, we reserve the right to charge 50% for the full scheduled session. If for any reason Face to Face Skincare needs to reschedule or cancel an appointment, as much advance notice as possible will be given.

Before your appointment

In the few days leading up to your appointment, you will want to avoid certain activities that could cause irritation to your skin. For example, you should avoid waxing your face because that would strip your skin of its topmost cells. This would leave your skin sensitized and susceptible to additional irritation.

While facials are a great way to repair some sun damage to your skin, you should avoid spending time in the sun the day before your procedure. This will give your skin a rest before your procedure.

Additional activities to avoid before facials include:

  • Getting Botox treatments less than 48 hours before

  • Getting eyelash extensions less than 48 before

  • Using exfoliating products like retinol or glycolic acid that could cause a skin reaction
