    • Avoid picking, scratching or irritating the skin as this may cause further scarring.

    • TCA Cross Only: Frosting will last for 3 hours, scabbing will last up to 1 week.

    • Rejuran S Only: Lumps in the treated areas will last for 4 days.

    • Under-Eye Procedures Only: Bruising may initially appear as pinpoint marks and gradually spread, taking on a purple discoloration. Due to the thinner, more vascular nature of the under-eye skin, bruising can last up to a week, depending on the client’s healing response.

    • If you experience severe bruising, severe redness / warmth or pus at the injection sites contact your practitioner immediately.
