Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Gel Removal.

Most Gel Removal sessions last 30 to 45 minutes, depending on polish thickness and the condition of your nails. If extensive layers or enhancements are present, plan for up to an hour. We take time to ensure safe, thorough removal without damage.

When performed by trained technicians using soaking and gentle techniques, Gel Removal should not damage your nail plate. We avoid aggressive filing, apply conditioning treatments, and provide aftercare advice to minimize risk and promote healthy regrowth.

We safely remove gel polish applied elsewhere as well as our own. Please inform us about prior applications or nail enhancements when booking so we can allocate proper time and use the appropriate tools for thorough, safe removal.

Yes. Removing old gel before a new manicure ensures proper adhesion and a flawless finish. We recommend booking removal and your next service back-to-back so technicians can prep nails and proceed immediately for the best results.

Absolutely. We assess each client's nail health and use gentler methods—longer soaking, minimal filing, protective buffers, and nourishing treatments—to reduce stress on fragile nails. We'll suggest recovery steps and optimal timing for future services.

Keep nails moisturized with cuticle oil twice daily, avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged water exposure for several days, and use a recommended strengthening treatment. If you notice sensitivity or changes, contact us for a follow-up and personalized care.
