AquaGold® Prep
AquaGold® fine touch™ treatment allows for pain-free delivery of treatment under the dermis to improve skin quality and skin health. Each device comes sterile packed and the procedures are performed in a safe and precise manner. Each procedure is normally completed between 20-30 minutes depending on the anatomical site and the treatment used.
PRE-TREATMENT CARE
Sun exposure and/or usage of a tanning bed, including self-tanning products, must be avoided for a minimum of 24 hours before and after the treatment- preferably 1 week before and after treatment. Treatment within 24 hours of prolonged sun exposure (natural sunlight, artificial tanning booth, or sunless tanning products) may result in hypopigmentation (white spots) or hyperpigmentation (dark spots) that may not clear for several months or may be permanent. AQUA GOLD® Fine Touch™ micro-infusion will not be administered on sunburned skin.
The area to be treated must be clean and free of any lotion, makeup, and sunscreen. These must be completely washed off prior to treatment.
No area to be treated should receive any type of chemical peel for 2 weeks before or after treatment.
Retin-A, Renova, and Tazorac must not be used for 1 week before or after treatment.
Waxing and/or use of chemical depilatories must be avoided for 2 weeks prior to and after treatment. Shaving is allowed immediately before treatment and 48-72 hours after treatment, as long as there is no skin irritation.
You may not receive this treatment if pregnant.
Notify the provider of any tattoos, including cosmetic tattooing, in the vicinity of the areas to be treated, as tattoos must be avoided.
If you have a history of cold sores, we may recommend prophylactic antiviral therapy. If so, follow the directions for the prescription.
During the course of your treatments, notify our staff of any changes to your medical history, health status, or personal activities that may be relevant to your treatment.
