Can I still wear mascara with lash extensions?

You will not need mascara most days. Extensions already add length and volume. Still, you can use a lash-safe formula if you want. Skip waterproof mascara, since it is hard to remove. Never use it on Volume or Mega Volume sets. The fans can clump and lose their shape.

How should I sleep with eyelash extensions?

Try to sleep on your back when you can. This keeps pressure off your lashes. Side and stomach sleeping can bend or break them. A silk or satin pillowcase helps a lot too. It lets lashes slide instead of catching. Good sleep habits stretch your set further.

Are eyelash extensions safe if I have sensitive eyes?

Many people with sensitive eyes wear extensions fine. Still, tell your artist before you book. Share any past reactions or eye conditions. This helps us plan the safest approach for you. Watery or sensitive eyes may need extra care. So stop and tell us if anything stings. Your comfort guides every step.

Can I get lash extensions for a wedding or event?

Yes, extensions are perfect for big days. They photograph beautifully and last for weeks. Book your set a few days before the event. This gives any redness time to settle. We can also do a trial run first. That way you love the look in advance.

Do eyelash extensions hurt?

No, a good appointment feels relaxing. Your eyes stay gently closed the whole time. Each extension sits on a single lash. So nothing pulls or tugs at your skin. Many clients drift off and nap. You should never feel any sharp pain.

How do I make my lash extensions last longer?

A few small habits make a big difference. Keep your lashes clean with a lash-safe wash. Brush them gently with a spoolie each morning. Avoid oil-based products near your eyes. Skip steam rooms and heavy rubbing too. Then book your fills every two to three weeks.

Why does laser hair removal take 6 to 8 sessions instead of just one or two?

Only the hairs in their active growth phase are vulnerable to the laser, which is roughly 20 to 30 percent of your total hair at any given moment. Each session catches a new wave of follicles cycling into growth, and the math works out to 6 to 8 sessions for full coverage. For a deeper breakdown of session timing, read our complete guide at https://eyecandymedbeauty.com/how-many-laser-hair-removal-sessions/.

Can laser hair removal help with ingrown hairs and razor bumps?

Yes. For most clients with chronic ingrown hairs or razor bumps (pseudofolliculitis barbae), laser hair removal is one of the most effective long-term solutions. By targeting the follicle directly, the laser reduces or eliminates the recurring hairs that cause inflammation and ingrowns in the first place. Many Lakewood clients book laser specifically because shaving, waxing, and threading kept producing the same skin irritation cycle.

Will laser hair removal work if I have PCOS or unwanted hormonal hair growth?

Laser hair removal works on hormonal hair, but the timeline and maintenance look different. PCOS, thyroid conditions, and other hormonal imbalances can stimulate new follicles long after your initial series ends, which means you'll likely need a few extra sessions during your first round and occasional maintenance touch-ups over the years. Your provider will design your plan with this pattern in mind.

Can I switch from waxing to laser hair removal?

Yes, but you'll need to stop waxing, threading, sugaring, plucking, and any other root-removal methods at least 4 weeks before your first laser session. The laser needs an intact follicle to target, and methods that pull the entire hair from the root leave the laser with nothing to find. Shaving is the only hair removal method allowed during this 4-week transition window.

Can I get laser hair removal on tattooed skin?

The laser cannot fire over tattooed areas, since the ink absorbs the laser energy in ways that can damage both the skin and the tattoo. Your provider will plan treatment to work around any existing tattoos, leaving a small buffer zone around the ink. If you're considering a new tattoo in an area you'd like to laser, we recommend completing your laser series first.

Does shaving between laser sessions cause hair to grow back thicker?

No. Shaving doesn't change the thickness, color, or growth rate of your hair. The myth comes from how shaved hair looks: it grows back with a blunt tip rather than a tapered one, which can feel coarser. Hair growing in between your laser sessions is part of the natural cycle the laser is working through, and it's already on its way out.

Will laser hair removal completely stop my hair from growing back?

Laser hair removal causes long-term reduction, not permanent removal. Most clients see 70 to 90 percent reduction after a full series of 6 to 8 sessions, with the remaining hair growing back finer and lighter than before. Some clients need annual maintenance touch-ups every year or two to catch new hairs from hormonal changes, but the majority of the original growth is gone for good.

Does laser hair removal work on all hair colors?

Laser hair removal works best on hair with active melanin, which means dark brown and black hair respond fastest. Blonde, red, gray, and white hair contain less melanin and don't absorb the laser energy as effectively, so results are typically slower or limited. During your consultation, your provider will assess your specific hair color and growth pattern and give you an honest read on what to expect.

How is the diode laser different from other hair removal lasers?

The diode laser uses a longer wavelength than older laser types, which lets it reach the hair follicle without absorbing as much energy at the skin surface. This makes it both more effective on darker skin tones and more comfortable during treatment. Older Nd:YAG and alexandrite lasers each have their own use cases, but for the range of clients we see, diode delivers consistent results with fewer settings adjustments per session.

Can I get laser hair removal while pregnant?

We don't perform laser hair removal on clients who are currently pregnant or breastfeeding. There aren't enough long-term safety studies on laser exposure during pregnancy to clear it as safe, and hormonal changes during and after pregnancy can alter hair growth patterns in ways that affect results. We recommend waiting until you've finished breastfeeding before starting or resuming a treatment series.

What does a laser hair removal session actually feel like?

Most clients describe each laser pulse as a quick warm snap, similar to a rubber band against the skin. Some areas are more sensitive than others, particularly the bikini line, upper lip, and underarms. Sessions are short. Underarms take a few minutes, full legs around 30 to 45 minutes. The diode laser's built-in cooling system helps the experience stay comfortable across the whole appointment.

How soon after my first session will I see results?

You'll notice the treated area looking smoother within a couple of weeks of your first session, but the most visible change is the shedding that happens 1 to 2 weeks in. Real reduction becomes visible around session 3 or 4.

How do I know if I should start with Classic, Hybrid, Volume, or Mega Volume lashes?

It depends on your natural lash strength and the look you want. If your natural lashes are fine or sparse, we'll usually recommend Classic or Hybrid first since they're lighter and easier on the lash line. Volume and Mega Volume sets work best when your natural lashes can support more weight. Your Lakewood lash artist will assess your lashes and recommend the right starting point at your first appointment.

Should I get a lash lift instead of eyelash extensions in Lakewood?

It depends on what you're trying to solve. A lash lift curls your existing lashes for a wide-eyed effect without adding any product. Eyelash extensions add length, density, and curl using individual extensions glued to each natural lash. Both have different costs, timelines, and maintenance routines. We break it all down in our full comparison of lash lifts versus extensions at https://eyecandymedbeauty.com/lash-lift-vs-extensions-cost-longevity-compared/ if you want to dig deeper.

Can I wear contacts during my Lakewood lash appointment?

We recommend taking contacts out before your appointment and bringing your glasses to wear on the drive home. The lash adhesive releases minor vapors during curing that can irritate contact wearers. Your eyes also stay closed for 90 minutes to 3 hours, which dries contacts out and makes them uncomfortable. Plan to give your eyes a break and reinsert your contacts the next morning.

What does a healthy lash cycle look like when wearing extensions long-term?

Your natural lashes naturally shed and regrow on a roughly 60 to 90 day cycle, and that process continues with extensions on. As lashes shed, you'll lose extensions with them, which is why fills are part of the routine. Your Lakewood artist will watch how your natural lashes look across visits and recommend a short break (typically 2 to 4 weeks) once a year if your lash line needs it.

How long does a first-time lash appointment take at the Lakewood location?

Plan for 90 minutes to 3 hours for your first full set, depending on the style. Classic sets typically run 90 to 120 minutes, Hybrid and Volume sets run 2 to 2.5 hours, and Mega Volume can take up to 3 hours. The first appointment is usually slightly longer than fills, since the artist is mapping your set from scratch and you're getting full coverage on every lash.

What's the difference between a lash fill and a full set at the Lakewood location?

A full set is the initial appointment where extensions are applied to every healthy natural lash. A fill replaces the extensions that have shed naturally over the past 2 to 3 weeks, restoring the density of your original set. Fills are shorter (60 to 90 minutes), and they cost less than a full set. Most Lakewood clients alternate fills until they want to refresh with a new full set or change styles.

Juvederm® Dermal Fillers in Lakewood

Dermal filler should add to the face you already have, not replace it. At our Lakewood location, every Juvederm® appointment starts with your licensed nurse injector studying how your face moves before any syringe is opened. Most clients start with one syringe and build from there.

Trusted Dermal Filler Experts in Lakewood

At Eye Candy Medspa and Lash Bar, our Lakewood team has been placing dermal fillers since 2018, with many clients on our schedule for years. Each appointment begins with your nurse injector reviewing your facial structure and where volume has gradually shifted, then planning the right Juvederm® formula, placement, and conservative dose to bring balance back to your face.

We only work with dermal fillers backed by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and never substitute brands or sources. Whether you want a softer lip border, restored cheek volume, jawline definition, or smoother lines around the mouth, we treat one area at a time and only add more when the next syringe is the right call.

Pre-Appointment Prep for Lakewood Filler Clients

Pause Bruise-Risk Supplements and Meds

For about 5 to 7 days before your Lakewood filler appointment, hold off on ibuprofen, aspirin, fish oil, vitamin E, ginkgo, garlic supplements, and alcohol. All of these thin your blood and increase bruising at the injection site. Acetaminophen is safe if you need pain relief. If you're on a prescription blood thinner, check with your prescribing doctor before stopping anything.

Hydrate the Day Before

Drinking water consistently the 24 hours before your appointment helps your skin recover faster and reduces swelling. Aim for 8 to 10 glasses across the day before your visit, not all at once that morning. Hydrated skin also holds Juvederm® more evenly, since the filler bonds with hyaluronic acid your body produces naturally.

Hold Off on Active Skincare for 3 Days

Skip retinol, retinoids, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, vitamin C serums, and any peel or microneedling treatments for about 3 days before your filler appointment. These products can leave your skin more sensitive and prone to redness or bruising. A gentle cleanser and moisturizer are all you need leading up to your visit.

Book Around Important Dates

If you have a wedding, work event, or vacation coming up, schedule your filler appointment at least 2 weeks before the date. Mild swelling and small bruises can show up for the first few days, and your filler settles into its final shape around the 2 week mark. Plenty of buffer to look your best when it matters.

Aftercare Tips for Dermal Fillers in Lakewood

Keep Your Hands Off Your Face

For the first 24 hours after your Lakewood filler appointment, avoid touching, pressing, or rubbing the treated areas. Pressure during this window can shift filler before it integrates with the tissue around it. Sleep on your back the first night if you’re able, and skip any treatments that involve facial pressure for at least 2 weeks, including microdermabrasion, gua sha, and traditional facials.

Cool the Treated Areas, Not Your Whole Face

Wrap an ice pack in a clean cloth and apply it to the treated areas in 10-minute intervals during the first day. Cold reduces swelling, calms inflammation, and helps bruises fade faster. Don’t apply ice directly to skin or leave it on too long, since prolonged cold contact can disrupt the way filler integrates underneath.

Sleep Slightly Elevated for the First Few Nights

Prop your head up with an extra pillow for the first 2 to 3 nights after your appointment. Elevation helps fluid drain naturally rather than pooling around the treated areas, which means less morning swelling. This small adjustment is one of the biggest predictors of how quickly your final result settles in.

Skip Strenuous Activity for 48 Hours

Hold off on running, heavy lifting, hot yoga, saunas, and steam rooms for the first 2 days. Anything that raises your body temperature or sends extra blood to your face increases swelling and bruising. Walking, gentle movement, and stretching are all fine right away.

Hold the Alcohol for 48 Hours

Wait at least 48 hours after your Lakewood filler appointment before drinking alcohol. Alcohol acts as a vasodilator and a blood thinner, which means more visible bruising and longer recovery time. Hydrating with water and electrolytes in the days after your appointment helps your skin recover faster and supports how the filler settles.

Trust the 2-Week Settling Process

Filler results show up the same day, but the final shape doesn’t fully reveal itself until around 2 weeks in. Small lumps, asymmetry, or firmness in the first 7 to 10 days are common and almost always resolve on their own. If something still feels off at your 2-week check-in, message us and we’ll bring you back to assess together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I see results from my filler appointment right away?

You’ll see visible volume the same day you walk out, though the result you see immediately is not the final result. Mild swelling in the first 24 to 72 hours can make the area look slightly fuller than it actually is. By the 2-week mark, the swelling has resolved and the filler has settled into its true shape. We schedule your check-in around that point so we can both evaluate the final result.

Is Juvederm® better than other dermal filler brands?

There isn’t a single best filler brand, but Juvederm® is one of the most widely studied hyaluronic acid filler families and offers different formulas designed for different facial areas. We’ve worked with Juvederm® exclusively because of its track record on safety, longevity, and reversibility. If you’ve had filler from a different brand and want to switch, your existing product won’t interact with Juvederm® once it’s fully metabolized.

Can I get dermal fillers and a chemical peel at the same appointment?

We recommend spacing them out. Chemical peels and lasers stress the skin’s surface, which can affect how filler integrates underneath. The general rule is to do the peel or laser at least 2 weeks before your filler appointment, or wait 2 weeks after filler before scheduling a peel. Your injector can map out the right sequence if you’re interested in combining treatments.

What happens if my filler isn't symmetrical?

Mild asymmetry in the first week or two is common and usually resolves as the filler settles and any swelling clears. If something still looks uneven at your 2-week check-in, we’ll address it together. Most adjustments are small (a small amount of additional product on the lighter side, or a small dissolve on the heavier side) and most clients walk out balanced after one quick visit.

Can I fly or travel right after a filler appointment?

Plan to keep your appointment and your travel at least 48 to 72 hours apart. Cabin pressure can worsen swelling for the first day or two after injection, and the dry air on planes can leave you puffier than you’d like for a trip. If you have a flight coming up, schedule your filler at least 5 to 7 days in advance so you’re past the swelling window before takeoff.

Are dermal filler results permanent?

Hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm® are not permanent. Your body gradually breaks the product down over 9 to 18 months depending on the area treated, the formula used, and how quickly your metabolism processes hyaluronic acid. The trade-off is that nothing is locked in, which means you can adjust your plan over time or stop entirely if you want to.
