Typically 45–60 minutes depending on nail length, amount of growth, and any required prep. Your technician will assess lifts, remove excess product if needed, fill the new growth, and cure the gel for durable, salon-quality results.

Plan fills every 2–3 weeks for most clients to maintain seamless coverage and prevent lifting. Timing varies with nail growth, lifestyle, and natural nail health; your technician will recommend a personalized refill schedule.

Yes, as long as the existing gel is intact and free from severe lifting or damage. We’ll inspect each nail; minor lifting can be refilled, but compromised or cracked enhancements may require a full removal and reapplication.

Not when applied and removed properly. Our technicians use gentle filing, proper bonding, and controlled removal to protect nail plates. Overuse or improper at-home removal can cause damage, so professional maintenance is important.

Arrive with clean, polish-free nails and avoid heavy oils immediately beforehand. If you use acrylics or recent heavy treatments, mention it. Avoid cutting cuticles at home; let technicians perform safe prep for best adhesion.

Apply cuticle oil daily, wear gloves for chores, avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged water exposure, and don’t pick or peel the gel. Schedule regular fills and professional removals to keep nails healthy and the French design flawless.
