Frequently Asked Questions

Swelling: usually will last 2-3 days and will often appear the worst on the day after treatment, especially around the eyes. Sleep elevated the first night and apply cold compresses (cold packs) to the treatment area 10 minutes of every hour for the first 1-2 days.
Redness: can be covered up with mineral based make up immediately after treatment if so desired; slight redness could remain for up to 1 week. We recommend using Jane Iredale Make up.
Dry Skin: this procedure tends to cause the skin to flake and feel dry. This is normal and should resolve within a week.
If you have areas of raw skin post treatment, keep them moist with something like Aquaphor or Bacitracin. You do not have to apply band-aids but keep them moist and do not pick at them. They will heal on their own without incident very rapidly. Healing time also varies from person to person. Be patient with your healing process. We are confident you will see improvement of your skin texture shortly after even the first treatment.
