Does it hurt?
|
You are likely to experience some discomfort. A topical anesthetic is an option. With the
application of a topical, most patients find they can receive a more intense treatment with
less discomfort. The laser technician will adjust the intensity of the treatment to suit your
desired result and comfort level.

How many treatments will I need?
|
The number of treatments depends on the size, location, depth and color of the lesion.
Some patients report a visible change in 7-10 days. Strict sun protection, of course, is a
necessary component in healthy skin care programs and even more important with Light
Pulse Skin Renewal.

Does it work on wrinkles?
|
Light wrinkles and fine lines are reduced after a series of treatments.
If the wrinkle has color, making it appear deeper, then you can expect a softening of the
wrinkle. Fine lines are minimized by the stimulation of collagen. LightPulse
Skin Renewal stimulates cells that produce collagen giving your face a smoother, firmer texture.
Deeper wrinkles benefit from the addition of fillers such as Botox and Collagen.

healing makeup, is highly encouraged to reduce redness and promote healing. Most
patients feel confident to face the public within minutes.
