Suggested Settings for the LightSheerDuet for Fitzpatrick Skin Type 3?
It would be nice to have an idea of the general guidelines or range (fluence/pulse duration/No. of pulses) per skin type (Fitzpatrick skin type I to V)to make sure you are not getting ripped off as a custumer... My friend was treated with a 10J/cm2 + 20 or 25ms and she is not as dark as I am (My skin type is III)... I ma no doctor but I am pretty sure she will not get any result with that... Thank you for clarifying... :-)

However please review these guidelines with your provider - only direct consultation can determine what settings should be used
