TIPS

As this is a medical office we don't accept tips.  We love word-of-mouth referrals and our business depends on it! Your honest reviews on Yelp, Google and Facebook also really help.  

​

PUNCTUALITY

We request that you arrive 10 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment time.  We do our best to stay on time, but we understand snafus happen. When booking services at Fresh Faces Rx, your appointment is scheduled with a provider whose time is allocated exclusively for your scheduled treatment. If you are late for a scheduled appointment, our company policy offers you two options: 1. You may opt to shorten your treatment 2. You may prefer to reschedule your appointment at a more convenient time, however, depending on the circumstances, a cancellation charge will be incurred.

​

CANCELLATION POLICY 

We understand that occasionally you may have to cancel an appointment with us. However, we do ask that you give us fair warning. You will be emailed before to confirm your appointment. As a courtesy to our clients and staff, it is company policy for all clients to give 24 hours notice of cancellation. Failure to do so will result in a $50 cancellation fee.  It's simple: our online scheduling system allows you to cancel up to 24 hours prior to the appointment. You can also call 503-880-5755.

​

POST-CARE INSTRUCTIONS FOLLOWING HYALURONIC ACID DERMAL FILLER​

If after 6 hours there are lumps present, you may gently massage.  Continue to ice as recommended by your practitioner.  Bruising around the mouth and nose is common after injections; avoid the following for up to 1 week:  aspirin, NSAIDS (Ibuprofen), ginko biloba, garlic supplements, flax oil, cod liver oil, vitamins A and E, and essential fatty acids (these may increase your risk of bruising).  Antihistamines, Tylenol, arnica, and bromelain may help with swelling and bruising.  Avoid vigorous exercise and heat for 3 days.  Avoid intense heat (sunbathing) or extreme cold for the first 2 weeks to avoid further inflammation to the area.  If touch-ups are needed, we need to wait until the soft tissue swelling is resolved, generally 2 weeks.  Avoid laser or IPL treatments of the area for 2 weeks, especially treatments that create heat in the dermis.  Schedule a follow up at 6 months to evaluate how your filler is lasting.  Please call our office at 503-880-5755  to report any redness, persistent itching, increasing pain or concerns. 

​

POST-CARE INSTRUCTIONS FOLLOWING IPL*

Apply cold (not frozen) packs every 15 minutes per hour until symptoms subside.  Avoid anything that creates heat for 2 days (hot bath, sauna, exercise, etc.).  Daily SPF 30, the sun has a profound effect following laser treatments. Unprotected or prolonged UV exposure can result in pigment irregularities due to increased melanocyte activity.   Protect area from exposure to sunlight for at least one month following your photofacial treatment.  Microcrusting can last 3 days to 3 weeks depending on the area treated.  Do not pick or scratch.  A mild sunburn-like sensation may last up to 3 days.  Avoid Retin-A, Benzoyl Peroxide, glycolics, astringents, and exfoliation for 7-10 days (perform a test spot prior to resuming these products).  If you develop cold sores (HSV) please call our office 503-880-5755; if you have a history of HSV in the areas treated, take prophylaxis. *IPL is by consult only.
