Rare side effects

cloth. If dryness persists, you can apply a non-
scented moisturizer on the treated area.
- Burns, excessive redness (e.g. around hair
follicles) and swelling: these reactions occur
rarely. They are the result of using a light
intensity that is too high for your skin tone. If
these reactions do not disappear within 3 days,
we advise you to consult a doctor. Wait with the
next treatment until the skin has healed
completely and make sure you use a lower light
intensity.
- Skin discoloration: this occurs very rarely. Skin
discoloration manifests itself as either a darker
patch (hyperpigmentation) or a lighter patch
(hypopigmentation) than the surrounding area.
This is the result of using a light intensity that is
too high for your skin tone. If the discoloration
does not disappear within 2 weeks, we advise
you to consult a doctor. Do not treat discolored
areas until the discoloration has disappeared
and your skin has regained its normal skin tone.
- Skin infection is very rare but is a possible risk
following a (micro)wound, a skin burn, skin
irritation etc.
- Epidermal heating (a sharply defined brownish
area which often occurs with darker skin tones
and is not accompanied with skin dryness): This
reaction occurs very rarely. In case this reaction
does not disappear within 1 week, we advise
you to consult a doctor. Wait with the next
treatment until the skin has healed completely
and make sure you use a lower light intensity.
