Lux 1540: Q&A

How Long Does Microswelling Generally Last After a Lux 1540?
I ask because I'd like to know how long I'd have to wait before I know how much the laser actually did in the initial treatment before waiting to see how it improves from there.

Post op treatment with the 1540
Usually the treatment produces about a week of mild downtime consisting initially of swelling and redness for a few days and then some rough "sandpapery" feeling for a few days as the time laser columns heal. The best results are seen a few weeks later. I recommend at least 3 treatments about a month apart. However many patients opt to continue their treatments on a maintenance basis.
