One ProCell Therapies session will take approximately 45 minutes and, unlike harsher skin treatments, demands no downtime. Clients are able to resume all normal activity immediately after the treatment.  The skin that has been treated will appear pink or red for 24-48 hours after treatment. The recommended protocol after a ProCell Therapies treatment includes avoiding: Anti-inflammatory medications before or after treatment Topical creams, cleansers, or moisturizers for at least 90 minutes post treatment Makeup for at least 6 hours post treatment Washing your face at least 6 hours post treatment Swimming or getting the face wet for at least 72 hours post treatment Exercise for at least 72 hours post treatment Direct sunlight for at least a week post treatment Exfoliating the treated skin for at least a week post treatment ProCell Therapies are safe when administered by a trained professional. Side effects following a treatment are uncommon and the rejuvenating results are known to last anywhere from 2 to 10 years, depending on age and other lifestyle factors. The procedure should not hurt but it also may not feel pleasant, like other skin treatments. If you feel pain during a ProCell Therapies treatment, be sure to let your skin care professional know, as they may be able to apply a topical cream to numb the treated area.
