Aftercare of the treated areas - follow carefully:

• Please keep the treated area dry and protected for two to three days. The treated area MUST be kept away from water.

• If a sterile dressing has been applied to the treated area, the dressing should be removed as soon as possible to allow the area to dry.

• Keep the skin around the treated area clean.
• As soon as possible, allow air flow to the treated area. In doing so the scab that forms will fall off faster resulting in a quicker healing process.
• Do not cover the treated area with tight and abrasive clothes. In order to minimize friction and to keep the scab intact, loose clothing is recommended.

• Do not touch or scratch the area more than necessary to avoid problems with the healing process of the scab.

• Do not remove the scab under any circumstances as it will increase the risk of inflammation.

• Protect the treated area from intensive sun exposure. After the scab has fallen off, please use sun protection lotion with a high sun protection factor on that area or keep it covered. 

• After the scab has fallen off please use Skinial Scar Care treatment cream daily to ensure the best possible result - available for purchase from your Skinial technician. 

• In between treatments and after the scab has fallen off, the appearance of the skin might be normal. However, we recommend waiting at least six to eight weeks between treatments to allow the area under the skin sufficient recovery. Strong redness of the treated area is normal and disappears at the latest after a few months.

• After the final treatment, the treated area will recover within approximately six months. 

• If you have any questions, or if you notice inflammation, pain or problems with the treated area, please contact us or your doctor immediately.
