What to expect after your treatment

1. The treated area will be swollen and red immediately after with potentially some pinpoint bleeding.

2. The next day, the swelling will subside but the area will remain red.
3. After about 2-3 days, the redness will /start to turn dark and reddish-brown. This hyperpigmentation (darkening of the skin) usually heals within 1-4 weeks but in some skins can last up to 12 weeks+. As long as the area is still darker than the rest of the skin, it is not fully healed.
4. Once fully healed you can have your next treatment. Most people will be able to have their second treatment about 6-8 weeks later. Achieving best possible outcome may require 2-5 sessions, depending on your skin type and result desired.

All bodies heal differently and it can vary from person to person. This can be due to factors like age, genetics, health and the severity + size of the stretch mark or scar being treated.

Some people may heal completely within a week while others can take up to 6-12 weeks.

Remember patience is key and aftercare is just as important. Typically 2-5 treatments are required for optimal results.
