What type of skin care is required after treatment?
With laser/light there is almost no adverse reaction. Some pinkness or redness may occur. With electrolysis, there is a slight swelling or redness along the treated area that should subside within a few minutes to an hour. Occasionally slight scabbing may appear two to four days after treatment. These temporary scabs should be left alone as they will disappear in a few days. Most technicians recommend the application of a good antibiotic cream or an antiseptic lotion to enhance the healing process. Sunlight and tanning beds require special consideration and should be discussed with your technician.
