The treatment takes around 30 minutes per session. This treatment is a course of usually 4 -6 sessions that are carried out on a fortnightly basis, but a treatment course will be designed at your consultation for your specific skin needs prior to the commencement of your treatments.
How long before I can go in the sun?
The skin that peels away after the procedure leaves a fresh layer of skin that is vulnerable. It is advised that you stay out of the sun for at least 6-8 weeks following this treatment. Sun cream must also be worn at all times following the procedure even in winter time. This is to protect the new skin, if exposed to the sun this may affect the benefits of the treatment.
