REVOLUTIONARY SKIN PEELS FORMULATED TO REFRESH AND REVITALISE THE SKIN’S SURFACE

When treatment instructions and pre- and post-skincare advice are strictly followed, the risk of adverse events and complications are low. Although LHA LALA is a very safe treatment with no reported side effects, these peels are not recommended if you are experiencing any of the following conditions:

• Pregnant or breastfeeding

• Active Bacterial, Viral, Fungal Infections on the treated area(s)

• Any open wounds in or around the treated area

• Pre-existing inflammatory dermatosis, psoriasis, eczema, or contact dermatitis

• Autoimmune disorders

• Skin cancers or any suspected lesions

• Any recent surgical treatments to the treated area where skin health is not considered optimum

• Diabetes – unmanaged due to impaired healing and potential complications

• Keloid scars (where the body produces too much collagen during the healing process)

• Hypertrophic scars

• Aspirin Allergy

• Salicylic Acid – Discontinue the use of any BHA (beta hydroxy acid) or AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) products 10-14 days prior to treatment

• Roaccutane or Doctor prescribed Isotretinoin within the last 12 months

• Any prescription Retinoic Acid (12 weeks)

• Photosensitizing medications inclusive of antibiotics (Doxycycline, Minocycline)

• Immunocompromised condition

• Immune system disorders – conditions that compromise the immune system may lead to increased risk of infection or slower healing

Results vary between individuals, depending on different factors such as general health, home skin care, age, skin type, diet, smoking, and alcohol consumption.

LHA LALA treatments of face/neck/decolletage are most effective after 3-6 sessions, so we recommend a full course, 7 to 12 days apart, depending on the skin condition being treated.

As we age and are prone to environmental aggressors daily, maintenance LHA LALA sessions are required for long-term results and daily use of SPF50+ and educational advice on homecare is vital.

For best results it is recommended treatments are performed once every 7-14 days initially, followed by maintenance treatments every 3 months as needed.

Unfortunately, you can’t have LHA LALA if pregnant or breastfeeding or have an allergy to Aspirin.

LHA LALA is a safe and non-invasive treatment, however there are some contraindications to be aware of. LHA LALA treatments may be conducted during all seasons and is suitable for all skin tones, however the procedure may not be suitable for everyone. It is crucial to disclose your medical history to your nurse prior to treatment.

Your nurse will review and evaluate any skin concerns, medical history, and expectations of an LHA LALA treatment. They will also advise you regarding suitability of a LHALALA treatment based on the medical and lifestyle information you provide in your Consent Form. The information you provide will help assess your specific skin type and all potential contraindications.

* Please discontinue any of the following products 7 - 14 days prior to the LHA LALA treatment including:

• AHA’s and BHA’s

• Retinols

• Glycolic and topical prescriptions

• Vitamin A (Retinols) as they can increase the skin’s sensitivity and therefore may affect the results and prolong downtime
