Exercise after IPL - is it the flushing or the sweating that you want to avoid?

Asked By:Heartland60 in Wanaka NZ

Hi, I had IPL for redness on Tuesday. It is now Friday and have had to go on a hike which went for most of the day and caused a lot of sweating. No extreme flushing though. I say that it said to avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours but other places ive read up to two weeks. Also is it the flushing you want to avoid or the sweating? Also does it just delay the healing progress or does it mean the treatment will be less effective regardless. Cheers
