I have red marks on my side (flanks) after my SculpSure treatment. Can I apply arnica get on it.

Yes, arnica, lasers (ProYellow, Excel V, VBeam and microneedling/prp will improve red marks. Keep in mind, with Sculpsure, a combination of treatments is needed. I recommend combining Sculpsure with Vanquish and Venus Legacy/Exilis Ultra treatments. We currently use a fire and ice treatment with Coolsculpting and Vanquish for good results in fat removal. However, a VASER hi definition procedure would give you the best results with fat removal, contouring and definition. Cost will vary. See an expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer

Hi!  Yes, you may apply Arnica to the area of redness/irritation.  You flanks may feel sore for about a week after the procedure.  The redness and irritation should resolve sooner.

Yes, you absolutely can use Arnica gel, which is a great topical for all kinds of skin pigmentation or irritations. Even without this though, the red marks should slowly resolve all on their own. This is not a common side effect with SculpSure, but is certainly not atypical. If it persists or worsens, you should contact your treating physician. Remember to massage the treated area for at least 5 minutes several times a day.

Mild inflammation is expected after sculpsure especially if there are stretch marks in the area treated.  Also small lumps or tenderness is common initially.  Be sure to gently massage the area daily and stay well hydrated.  Arnica should be fine to apply to the area after 2-3 days and usually will reduce any bruising.  Discuss the redness with your provider to ensure that a small amount of pinching with the frames is avoided- this likely could have resulted in the redness that you describe.
