Pre-Treatment Advice

  • Do not shave or use depilatories on legs on the day of the procedure.
  • No aspirin or blood thinning products (fish oil, vitamin E) for 7-9 days before the procedure.

Post Treatment Aftercare

  • DO walk for at least 30 minutes a day to help blood flow circulation and minimises blood clots.
