During the treatment we use a topical numbing agent to ensure patient’s comfort; this process takes an hour. Most patients report very minimal discomfort. The sensation during treatment consists of mild pressure with some areas feeling ‘warm’ or ‘spicy’. Any sensation does subside post treatment and patients feel zero discomfort.

Some results can be immediate, and most patients start to notice significant improvements 7 to 10 days after the first session. Full results are 6 months after you complete your series.

There is no physical downtime and social downtime is minimal. Make-up can be applied 1-2 days post treatment. Patients may have visible micro-lesions and mild bruising for up to a week however they are well covered under make-up. Immediately post treatment some redness may occur but, in most patients, doesn’t last longer than a few hours.

Recommended treatment protocol is a series of three-monthly sessions. However, we will discuss your customized treatment plan based on your goals during your consultation.
