How it is taken

The schedule

The documented form is given by a specialist, not at home. A 16 mg implant about the size of a grain of rice is placed under the skin above the hip bone, with a little local anaesthetic, through a wide-bore needle that takes seconds, and it dissolves slowly over the following weeks. It is repeated about every two months through the months when light exposure matters, three to five times a year. Colour comes in over one to three weeks and fades over one to two months after the last one.

Your personal schedule is set after we review your survey.
