The sensation has been described as a light flick against the skin – a feeling that moves as the applicator is moved. There are no ‘hot spots’, as the applicator features integrated cooling technology.
Expect your treatment to take around 15 to 20 minutes. There is no downtime, so you can put make-up on and go about everyday life straight after it’s finished.
It usually takes around four or five treatments before patients see noticeable results, although this can vary from patient to patient. The length of time that results last also varies, though you can help increase this period by protecting your skin from the sun each day.
There may be some redness that could last up to 24 hours after treatment, and this can be neutralised using make-up if you wish. Avoid hot baths, massages or other activities that involve direct skin contact within the first couple of days after treatment. Rest assured that you will receive full details about how to care for your skin both before and after treatment from our team.
