Laser Removal Post-Treatment Care
Cosmetic Tattoo Removal and Laser Toning is a very mild treatment that has little to no downtime. However, like all treatments, there may be some rare cases where the skin will react, therefore post-treatment care is always recommended.
Immediately after treatment, the treated area may be tender and slightly swollen.
Do not expose the treated skin to the sun.
You may use aloe vera or a cold pack for comfort.
Avoid any further heat to the skin (exercise, hot bath, shower, sauna).
Keep well hydrated and avoid alcohol.
Do not take anti-inflammatory medication e.g. Nurofen.
Do not apply any make-up or cosmetics in the area for a few days.
It is common to develop an itching sensation as healing begins, try to avoid scratching.
Avoid injuring the treated area (knocks and bumps).
Avoid swimming in pools or using hot tubs until the skin has returned to normal.
