How It Works

During a photofacial, a laser beam penetrates energy deep into the skin, causing microscopic damage, pulling pigmentation to the surface to reveal a more even complexion.

Before Treatment

  • Avoid using makeup on the day of your visit.
  • For optimal results avoid tanning or self tanning creams two weeks prior.
  • If you regularly use medications or supplements, there is an increased risk of bruising in the treated area.
  • Avoid treatments that may irritate the skin two weeks prior.

After Treatment

  • Avoid sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to prevent further sun damage
  • Slight bruising, redness and swelling may occur and will resolve with time.
  • Avoid heat, ie. hot tubs and saunas for one to two days.

  • Notify clinic of any concerns (blistering, excessive redness/swelling, etc.)
