For best results, please follow these instructions.

Before Your Treatment:

  • Do not wear makeup on the day of treatment.
  • Excess hair may need to be shaved. Men should be cleanly shaven.
  • No sun-tanning or self-tanners 4 weeks prior to treatment (includes spray tans, tanning lotions, tanning beds, laying in the sun, general sun exposure resulting in a mild tan, etc.).
  • Avoid skin irritants for several days before and after treatment (i.e. products containing tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic/salicylic acids, vitamin C/ascorbic acid, astringents, etc.).
  • Notify the clinic if there have been any significant changes to your health or medications after completing the consent form or after your last appointment.
  • History of herpes or cold sores may require an anti-viral prescription prior to treatment.

After Your Treatment:

  • Follow all recommendations made by your provider regarding care for your skin including using approved skincare regime.
  • Wait at least 4 hours before washing face or applying soap, cream, or makeup to the treatment area.
  • Avoid sun exposure and use a broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) sunscreen to prevent further sun damage.

  • Bruising, redness, swelling, or a grid pattern may occur and will resolve with time.
