Answer: Facial swelling after eMatrix can occur - Buffalo Niagara, NY I have seen patients who have had aggressive eMatrix procedures for inflammatory conditions and there is significant facial swelling and crusting of the skin, even though the manufacturer markets this as sublative, where there is no epidermal sloughing or crusting or destruction .... I recommend a 1% hydrocortisone cream and head elevation during recumbency and very gentle cleanser daily and of course, avoidance of sun exposure at all cost while the healing process continues. More than anything, remain patient and it will go away.

Answer: Side effects from eMatrix eMatrix is an excellent laser to treat acne scars on the face. The main side effect is redness and swelling which can last for several days. I would recommend consulting your physician about an oral cortisone if the swelling is severe. Within a few more days you should be back to normal and the swelling gone. eMatrix with the RF technology will minimize your scarring and leave your skin looking clear and rejuvenated.
