Your practitioner should cool the area intensively after treatment. We use two sets of moist, refrigerated towels after treatment. Every patient should use a cream to promote healing and moisturize after treatment.

We recommend Copper Peptide Intensive Healing Cream from ProCyte… a company that understands the basics and produces exceptional, pharmaceutical-grade skincare products.
