Every skin treatment at Bebe’s is tailored to you but great results also depend on what you do before and after your appointment. Below you'll find helpful guidelines to prepare for your skin before you come to your appointment.

General Pre-Treatment Tips
- Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin
- Avoid active skincare (retinol, AHAs, BHAs, Vitamin C) for 3–5 days
- No waxing, laser, or heavy exfoliation in the area prior
- Avoid sun exposure or fake tan for at least 7 days
- Let us know if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or on any new medications
