At Albany Cosmetic & Laser Centre, we use only advanced technology devices approved by Health Canada for safe treatment sessions so there are minimal risk factors associated with this procedure if done correctly by a trained professional staff member supervised by a medical professional. Generally speaking, most people experience no adverse reactions from treatment other than some mild redness which generally fades away within 24 hours after each session. Long-term side effects are rare but could include temporary changes in colour or texture of your skin during the healing process or mild irritation due to sensitivity.
