Laser procedures

• Oncological diseases, epilepsy, melasma, keloid scars, active inflammations and herpes

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding

• The treatment is not performed on persons under the age of 18 without the consent of a parent or guardian

Almost all of the above contraindications are relative and the final decision on the treatment will be made by the specialist during the personal examination and consultation before the treatment.

• Avoid tanning for at least 2-4 weeks before and after the treatment, including visiting the solarium (risk of pigmentation). Use SPF 50 sun cream for at least two weeks; to extend the result, SPF sunscreen is recommended all year round.
• Avoid the use of self-tanning products 2-4 weeks before and after the treatment.

• Stop using products containing retinol or similar active ingredients 3 days before the treatment. Once the skin has recovered from the treatment, you can resume using them.
• At least 6 months should have passed since taking medicines containing isotretinoin.

• Inform the specialist about the medicines you are taking before coming for the treatment.

• Alcohol should not be consumed for at least one day before and after the treatment.

• Avoid intensive workouts for 2-7 days after the treatment, depending on skin sensitivity.

• Avoid saunas and hot baths for at least 2 weeks after the treatment.
• Leave a gap of at least 2 weeks before other facial treatments.
• Make-up can usually be applied immediately after the treatment if necessary, but if possible avoid using makeup on the day of the procedure.
• Mild redness, flushing and swelling may temporary occur for about 1-3 days after the treatment. In rare cases, bruising may occur. A cold compress can be applied to reduce the feeling of flushing and to soothe and restore the skin; use a skin repair cream (e.g. Bepanthen, Panthenol, Mesoestetic Post Procedure Fast Skin Repair cream, Mesoestetic Melan Recovery cream) until the skin has recovered.
• After the procedure, the pigment usually darkens and pigment crusts may form on the skin. They will disappear naturally in about 1 week, avoid removing them yourself.
