TREATMENT GUIDELINES

• In some case, topical numbing cream may be applied to the area being treated for 15-20 min prior to treatment. 

• There will be multiple passes made over the treatment area with the handpiece. 

• Most customers will use 3-4 filters.

• You will feel some slight discomfort similar to a mild sting or snap.

• This minimally invasive treatment allows for an immediate return to your daily activities. You will likely experience redness, skin irritation, mild burning, and swelling for a few days after treatment, but these side effects should not require significant downtime.

• Results are noticeable after a single treatment. We can recommend professional skincare, available right in our office, to help you maintain your skin’s health and prolong the positive effects of your treatment.

COMFORTABLE TREATMENT FOR ALL SKIN TONES

The M22 IPL treats a variety of conditions with a single handpiece. Because it equally distributes energy during each pulse, you benefit from a safer, more precise, and more comfortable treatment. Continuous cooling throughout your procedure further decreases discomfort, protects your skin, and saves time while ensuring an optimal outcome.

Due to the cooling between pulses, each treatment is minimally painful. If you’re like most of our patients, you’ll feel a slight stinging sensation as the light pulses into the skin, but it is temporary. This device is safe and effective for all types of skin, including darker skin. It is particularly effective in removing hair and vascular lesions in all skin tones, with minimal risk of damage to the skin, changes in texture, burning, and scarring.

This minimally invasive treatment allows for an immediate return to your daily activities. You will likely experience redness, skin irritation, mild burning, and swelling for a few days after treatment, but these side effects should not require significant downtime

After your procedure

 You will feel a sensation of heat/sunburn that will subside within a few minutes. It is okay to take Tylenol or Ibuprofen.

 Redness and mild swelling may occur and last for a few hours.
 It is possible that you develop darkening/superficial crusting of brown spots (similar to

coffee grounds) for 3-7 days.

 Apply sunscreen with Zinc Oxide and/or Titanium Dioxide daily. Protect the treated area from the sun (use a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, etc.). Please be aware UVA rays penetrate through windows.

 Swelling can vary from patient to patient. Some patients may not experience swelling and some may have marked swelling.

 If it’s necessary, apply ice packs the day of the procedure. This will help reduce the sensation of heat and help minimize swelling.

 Swelling typically peaks at 12 hours. If your treatment is being performed on your face, sleeping with your head slightly elevated at night for the first night will help minimize swelling.

 NO RUBBING, PICKING OR WIPING THE TREATED AREA.
 It is okay to shower the day of procedure.
 Gentle cleansing with the finger tips is fine.
 If darkening of treatment area occurs, this will slough off naturally after 5-7 days.
