• Tiny scabs will appear 1 to 3 days after the treatment. These scabs will fall off within 15 days. To avoid infection and scarring. DO NOT PICK AT OR REMOVE EXFOLIATING SKIN. Removal of scabs can cause red marks, which can take several months to disappear.
• When washing, cleanse area very gently with skin cleanser. Do Not use a face cloth, facial brush, or sponges.
