After your treatment your skin will be slightly red and any dark pigment originally on your face will become darkened. After a few hours post treatment the redness will subside. The dark spots will begin to become darker the next few days after treatment and will “flake off” looking like coffee grounds on the skin for 7-14 days. You may apply make-up- foundation/concealer 24 hours post treatment. During weeks 1-3 you will notice your skin becoming much more even, bright, and clear!
How many treatments will I need?
3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart will give the most optimal results. Some clients with less pigment may be happy with 1-2 treatments!
Will it hurt?
Clients describe the feeling of a warm pulse sensation on their face. Areas with more adipose tissue will be less sensitive and may not hurt at all, while areas near the forehead/ hairline will be more sensitive . After the treatment your skin will feel slightly tight and will feel as if you have a mild sunburn, this will subside in a few hours. Cooling agents will be applied to your face for comfort.
