Who it's for
Suitable for many skin types and concerns, including fine lines, texture, acne scarring, pigmentation, large pores and dull or ageing skin. Suitability is always confirmed at your consultation.
Expected results
Skin often looks fresher straight away, with continued improvement in texture, tone and fine lines over the following weeks as new collagen develops. A course of treatments is often recommended for the best results.
Pre-care and after-care
Pre-care advice
Avoid sunbeds and strong sun exposure beforehand, and follow the home care plan agreed at your consultation, including when to pause active ingredients such as retinoids and exfoliating acids. Arrive with clean skin and let your practitioner know about any changes to your medication or skin.
After-care advice
Follow the aftercare given by your practitioner. In general, cleanse gently, use only the recommended products, wear a high-factor SPF daily and avoid sun exposure, heat, intense exercise and make-up for the period advised.
Expect 24 to 72 hours of downtime after treatment. Redness and tightness are common straight after and usually settle within that time, depending on your skin and the depth of treatment. Your practitioner will advise you on what to expect.
Safety, risks and contraindications
Contraindications
Treatment may not be suitable if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have active acne breakouts, skin infections or cold sores in the area, a tendency to keloid scarring, or certain medical conditions or medications. Your practitioner will review this with you before treatment.
Side effects and risks
Possible side effects include redness, mild swelling, tightness, temporary dryness or flaking and pinpoint bleeding. Rarely, infection or changes in pigmentation can occur. Following your pre and aftercare advice helps minimise risks.
