FAQ

Everything you may want to know before your visit to the Lux Life.

Services & Consultations

What services does Lux Vixen Aesthetics offer?

Lux Vixen Aesthetics offers personalized beauty and wellness services including customized facials, body contouring, lymphatic drainage, wood therapy, professional makeup artistry, post-operative body care, microneedling, chemical peels, and scar and skin-repair treatments. Every service is customized based on your individual needs and goals.

I'm not sure which service I need. Can you help me choose?

Absolutely, Pretty! A consultation allows us to discuss your concerns, goals, previous treatments, and expectations so I can recommend the service or treatment plan that's best suited for you.

Body Contouring & Lymphatic Drainage

How many body-contouring sessions will I need?

Every body is different. Some clients may notice visible changes after their first treatment, while more significant or longer-lasting improvements generally require consistency and a series of sessions. Your recommended treatment plan will depend on your goals, starting point, lifestyle, and the services being performed.

Is body contouring a weight-loss treatment?

No. Non-invasive body contouring is not a substitute for weight loss. Treatments are designed to help sculpt and define targeted areas and complement your overall wellness routine. For best results, consistency, hydration, movement, and healthy lifestyle habits are encouraged.

What's the difference between lymphatic drainage, wood therapy, and body contouring?

Although they can be combined, they serve different purposes. Lymphatic drainage uses gentle, rhythmic techniques to support lymphatic flow and help with temporary puffiness and fluid retention. Wood therapy uses specialized wooden tools to massage and contour the body while supporting circulation. Body contouring can incorporate different non-invasive techniques based on your individual goals.

Can I book lymphatic drainage after surgery?

Yes, post-operative lymphatic care is available; however, your surgeon's instructions and clearance come first. The timing and type of treatment will depend on your procedure, stage of healing, and your surgeon's recommendations. Post-op care is never one-size-fits-all.

How should I prepare for a body-contouring or lymphatic-drainage appointment?

Come well hydrated and avoid arriving immediately after a very heavy meal. Comfortable clothing is recommended. Light movement and good hydration before and after your appointment can also support your treatment experience. Any additional preparation instructions specific to your service will be provided before your appointment.

Facials, Peels & Microneedling

Which facial should I book if I don't know what my skin needs?

That's okay! Your skin will be assessed before treatment, and your facial can be customized based on what your skin needs at that time. We'll discuss your concerns, current skincare routine, sensitivities, and goals before beginning.

Will I peel after a chemical peel?

Possibly—but not every peel causes visible peeling. Depending on the peel used and your skin, you may experience dryness, tightness, flaking, sensitivity, or visible peeling. More peeling does not automatically mean better results. You'll receive specific aftercare instructions based on your treatment.

Is microneedling good for acne scars and uneven texture?

Microneedling is commonly used to help improve the appearance of uneven texture, certain types of acne scarring, and other skin concerns by supporting the skin's natural renewal process. It isn't appropriate for every client, so your skin and treatment history should be evaluated first.

Can I receive a facial, chemical peel, or microneedling if I use retinol?

Certain skincare ingredients and medications—including retinoids—can affect your skin's sensitivity and may need to be temporarily discontinued before certain treatments. Always disclose the skincare products, prescriptions, recent procedures, and active ingredients you're using before your appointment so your treatment can be performed safely.

Do you work with darker skin tones?

Absolutely. Lux Vixen Aesthetics welcomes and treats a wide range of skin tones. Treatments are selected and customized with your individual skin type, concerns, sensitivities, and goals in mind rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

Scar & Skin Repair

Can you completely remove my scar?

No treatment can promise to completely erase a scar. Scar & Skin Repair treatments are designed to help improve the appearance, texture, tone, and overall look of scars over time. Recommendations depend on the scar, how it has healed, your skin, and your individual goals.

Makeup

How should I prepare for my makeup appointment?

Please arrive with a clean face unless instructed otherwise. You're welcome to bring inspiration photos, but they are used as inspiration rather than a guarantee of an identical result. Your makeup will be customized to your features, skin, desired look, and occasion.

Do makeup appointments include lashes?

This should be answered according to the exact makeup service booked. Some looks may include strip lashes while other lash options or upgrades may be booked separately. The inclusions for your selected service will be shown when booking.

Do you offer makeup for weddings, special events, photoshoots, and other occasions?

Yes! Professional makeup is available for special occasions, events, photoshoots, bridal needs, and clients who simply want to get glam. Looks can range from soft and polished to full glam depending on your preference.

Do you travel for makeup appointments?

Yes, mobile makeup services are available for approved appointments. Travel fees begin at $65 and may vary depending on location, timing, parking, setup requirements, and the number of clients being serviced.

Booking & Policies

How do I book an appointment?

Appointments can be booked directly through the Book Now buttons throughout the website. Select your desired service, available date and time, and complete the required booking information and deposit.

Is a deposit required?

Yes. A 30% non-refundable deposit is required to secure appointments. Your appointment is not considered confirmed until the required deposit has been received.

What is your cancellation and late-arrival policy?

Because your appointment time is reserved specifically for you, cancellations, rescheduling, late arrivals, and no-shows are subject to Lux Vixen Aesthetics' booking policies. Please review the full Booking Policies before completing your appointment.

What makes Lux Vixen Aesthetics different?

At Lux Vixen Aesthetics, you're not just booking a service—you're receiving personalized care. I take the time to listen to your concerns, understand your goals, educate you about your options, and create an experience designed around you. Whether you're here for skincare, body care, makeup, or simply a confidence boost, my goal is for you to leave feeling cared for, confident, and beautiful in the skin you're in.
