CIELLULU: Laser Hair & Tattoo Removal

Laser treatment is generally considered safe when performed by a trained professional. However, like any medical procedure, it has potential side effects, which may include:
•    Redness and swelling in the treated area
•    Temporary changes in skin color
•    Slight pain or discomfort during and after the procedure
Most side effects are temporary and resolve within a few days to a couple of weeks. It is crucial to have the treatment done by a certified dermatologist or a trained aesthetician to minimize risks.

The exact treatment needed will depend on the severity of the patient’s acne condition. The typical skin treatment course should be about 4-6 sessions, each session a few weeks apart. Sessions can last anywhere from 15-20 minutes or up to an hour; this depends on how much skin needs to be treated.
Each treatment begins with a protective cooling gel being applied to the targeted area. This will help keep the top layer of the skin safe from the heat without preventing the IPL flashes from penetrating the skin.
Afterwards, the IPL device is pressed to the treated area and a flash of light is emitted into the skin. The doctor should then move the tip along the skin, emitting a flash at every different point. This process can be repeated with each filter if desired by the doctor or technician.
The treatment ends with the skin being wiped clean and the patient given a post-treatment product to help with the healing process.

Side effects are usually mild and temporary, including redness, swelling, and darkening of treated spots. In rare cases, blistering or changes in skin texture may occur.

Side effects are usually mild and temporary, including redness, swelling, and darkening of treated spots. In rare cases, blistering or changes in skin texture may occur. It's essential to have treatments performed by a licensed and experienced professional to minimize risks.

After laser treatment for acne, proper care is essential to ensure optimal results and to minimize side effects. Here are some guidelines for post-treatment care:
1.    Avoid Sun Exposure: The skin will be more sensitive to sunlight after the procedure. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to protect your skin.
2.    Keep the Skin Clean and Moisturized: Gently cleanse your skin with a mild cleanser and keep it moisturized. Avoid using harsh or abrasive skincare products.
3.    Avoid Picking or Scratching: Do not pick or scratch the treated areas to prevent infection and scarring.
4.    Follow Doctor’s Instructions: Adhere to any specific post-treatment instructions provided by your dermatologist, including the use of prescribed topical medications.
5.    Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your skin heal and maintain its health.
