Spraying Back Acne?

Hi guys! I have a client who was asking about my spray tans for her granddaughter (16), she has a dance competition coming up. She said her granddaughter has acne on her back really bad; so bad that she takes medication for it. I have sprayed people with a pimple or some blemishes, but this is something different.

So, is there anything I should do differently to prep the affected area? Anything I should assess before applying the tan or anything I should tell her as part of her aftercare? Any help and tips you give is greatly appreciated! I use South Seas solution if that makes a difference! Thanks all!

Re: Spraying Back Acne?

I would advise her to get an OK from her Dr. as any topical meds. with benzo, or glyco will cause uneven fading of the tan.
Since it has already been brought to your attention of a medical condition. You could be held responsible if things go bad. As long as she has a release, which should be no trouble you are in the clear!
Good luck, i'm sure she know lots of other 16 year old's that would like a great tan!!! :)

ok.. on the acne.....The spray tan will actually help the acne!.. See if she will start coming to you weekly for about 4 to 6 weeks prior to her event. And also using a CLEAR solution would work best on the acne area, that way the tint from solution won't make the acne pit area dark.

besthands: thanks! i am pretty sure that the meds she is taking are in pill form and not topical, but I will make sure to double check with her!

sunbursttans: how does the spray tan help the acne? i've never heard that and would to know more, but that's great if it does! thanks for the clear solution tip! ive never used the clear solutions, are they harder to apply since you dont have a color guide?
