Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about IPL Skin Rejuvenation or Acne Laser Hands.

Most clients report mild tingling or snapping sensations during treatment. We offer topical numbing for increased comfort. Sessions are brief and our technicians adjust intensity to individual tolerance; communicate any discomfort so settings can be modified promptly.

Most clients need three to six sessions spaced four to six weeks apart, depending on pigmentation, acne severity, and skin type. Pigment often lightens sooner, while acne and texture benefit from combined treatments and multiple visits.

Downtime is minimal for most patients: mild redness, warmth, or slight swelling may occur for 24–72 hours. Pigmented lesions can scab or darken briefly before flaking off. Avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen during healing.

Common short-term effects include redness, swelling, and temporary darkening of spots. Rare risks are blistering, infection, or permanent pigmentation changes. We perform a pre-treatment assessment and tailor settings to minimize risks and protect skin health.

Ideal candidates have sun-damaged hands, age spots, or mild acne and generally fair to medium skin tones. Darker skin types require evaluation to reduce pigmentation risk. Pregnant clients or those with active infections may be advised to defer treatment.

Avoid recent tanning, self-tanners, and direct sun exposure for two weeks before treatment. Stop retinoids or exfoliating products as instructed. Inform us of medications and recent procedures; arrive with clean, sunscreen-free hands for the appointment.
