Depending on the laser power pulsation and the number of laser passes, the treated area gets changed: Mild treatment: 1 or 2 passes, reddish skin appears as if you were fall asleep during the sunbathing which withdraws after 1 or 2 days. You could be already back to work the day after the procedure and put some concealing make up. Moderate treatment: 3 – 4 passes, skin appears bronze and during the first two days after the treatment it gets a bit tanned. Make-up could not disguise everything because during first three days the changes are the most visible. After 3-4 days the skin slightly flakes and then those changes could be concealed with make-up and you could get back to your work. The skin may appear light red few days after the treatment which withdraws soon. If you have started your treatment on Friday, you could go back to work on the next Monday morning. Aggressive treatment: 4-7 passes, the same treatment regimen as in the case of moderate version, but the skin gets more tanned and the recovery lasts few more days. If you have done your treatment on Thursday, you could go back to your work on the next Tuesday. Light peel treatment (the best effect/recovery rate): The recovery period lasts as in the case of mild or moderate treatment. Right after the recovery, the huge difference is noticeable and the improvement characterized by the new skin radiance appears!
