After use
Common skin reactions
Your skin may show slight redness and/or may prickle, tingle or feel
warm. This reaction is absolutely harmless and disappears quickly.
Dry skin and itching may occur due to shaving or a combination of
shaving and light treatment. You can cool the area with an ice pack
or a wet face cloth. If dryness persists, you can apply a non-scented
moisturizer on the treated area 24 hours after the treatment.
Rare side effects
- Burns, excessive redness (e.g. around hair follicles) and swelling:
these reactions occur rarely. They are the result of using a light
intensity that is too high for your skin tone. If these reactions do
not disappear within 3 days, we advise you to consult a doctor.
Wait with the next treatment until the skin has healed completely
and make sure you use a lower light intensity.
- Skin discoloration: this occurs very rarely. Skin discoloration
manifests itself as either a darker patch (hyperpigmentation) or a
lighter patch (hypopigmentation) than the surrounding area. This is
the result of using a light intensity that is too high for your skin
tone. If the discoloration does not disappear within 2 weeks, we
advise you to consult a doctor. Do not treat discolored areas until
the discoloration has disappeared and your skin has regained its
normal skin tone.
- Skin infection is very rare but is a possible risk following a
(micro)wound, a skin burn, skin irritation etc.
