What is the PhotoFacial Treatment Like?
During the treatment, wavelengths of light are shined at the face. Sometimes patients are a bit pink after they leave, easily covered with makeup or sunscreen. Photofacials do not hurt. They do feel a bit warm. Patients come monthly for an initial 5 treatments, and then either 2-4 times a year depending on their maintenance needs. Allow one hour for your treatment from check in to check out, and the actual treatment lasts about 20-30 minutes. It is considered a no-down time procedure, it is walk-in…walk-out!
