Studio hygiene

Ground rules for safe working – mandatory for any treatment on the skin.

Hygiene in a beauty studio is not an extra but a prerequisite. It protects clients and practitioners alike and is legally regulated for treatments that penetrate the skin.

The cornerstones:

Hand disinfection before and after every client contact, single-use gloves, disposable needles and blades with safe disposal, surface disinfection between appointments, sterile or disinfected instruments and clean linens.

For penetrating treatments:

Permanent make-up, microneedling and similar procedures carry additional requirements in Germany and Austria – from notifying the health authority through hygiene plans to documentation. Anyone offering such services should know their region's rules precisely.
