“We found that children exposed in utero to high concentrations of two specific phthalates had reductions in IQ scores at age 7,” Pam Factor-Litvak, lead author of the study, told Time. In a new study conducted at Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health, researchers have now discovered that certain nail polishes, and other types of cosmetic and glue products, have the potential lower your IQ. All aftercare products and instructions will be provided to you at the appointment time.Nail polish seems harmless enough, but more and more research has been accumulating that points to the opposite: Certain chemicals found in nail polish and other cosmetics, known as phthalates, have the potential to be hazardous to our health. You will be washing the treated area twice a day and applying a healing serum to the area. Avoid the midday sun and apply an SPF50 for any sun exposure during the 10-12 weeks after your treatment. You absolutely must NOT use saunas or sunbeds during your 10 – 12 week healing period.Even indoor lighting can cause risk of pigmentation on new healing skin. SPF30 should be worn whether you are outside, in and out of your vehicle or driving as well as if you are staying indoors.If possible, we recommend you take a high dose of Vitamin C supplement over the course of the healing process as this will help give your immune system a big boost and boost your results.Once the crusts have all fallen off you may apply your normal foundation/make-up but avoid using skincare products containing Glycolic or any other active exfoliating ingredients as this will cause irritation.Do NOT pick crusts off as this will delay the healing process and could cause hyperpigmentation. Tiny crusts will quickly form on the treated area.It is absolutely essential to avoid any sun exposure during the healing process and apply SPF for two months to the treated area to avoid the risk of hyperpigmentation.Clients can resume their activities immediately after each session but may not look their complete best during the healing process (3-7 days).The area treated MUST NOT be covered with any type of make-up or cream until the area has fully healed and all tiny dots have flaked off (3-7 days depending on skin).Swelling is typically minimal and normal and can last for 1-3 days in the treatment area.The treatment area may feel like a slight sunburn.No working out for 24 hours after the treatment.Remove contact lenses and any eyelash extensions prior to treatment.Discontinue any use of topical Retin-A products a minimum of 1 week prior to treatment.Avoid any other type of procedures on the same area which you intend to have treated with Plasma Pen, such as laser therapy, chemical peels, botox/fillers, as this may prevent your treatment being performed by your technician at the time you want it.Tyrosinase Inhibitors are not just useful for those who suffer from hyperpigmentation but for all clients – even those with healthy, even skin. You may even wish to consider a Pre Treatment product using a Tyrosinase Inhibitor as this can help prevent the enzyme “Tyrosinase” from misfiring or over-oxidizing the Tyrosine and thus helps ensure there is no overproduction of pigment in the skin.

Ideally, you should try to use SPF30 to prep your skin for 2 to 4 weeks before your treatment, especially if you are naturally darker skinned. We recommend you avoid sun-tanning, spray-tanning, tanning injections and sunbeds for 2 to 4 weeks before your treatment.
