Frequently Asked Questions
How Does It Work?
Wavelengths of light and radio frequency target abnormally dilated blood vessels and/or pigmented lesions, heat causes damage to the vessel and/or lesion and the body begins it natural healing process – this heat also causes collagen synthesis and skin tightening.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Generally 5 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart are required for optimal result, including collagen synthesis and skin tightening. In some cases the vascular redness and pigmented discolorations may be cleared in 2 to 4 treatments.
What Kind Of Results Can I Expect?
Each Aurora treatment will result in a gradual lightening and improvement of pigmented and vascular imperfections. Textural improvements are seen towards the end of the treatment series.
Does It Hurt?
You may experience an uncomfortable stinging sensation during treatment, similar to the quick snap of elastic. The sensation only lasts for a second and you may feel warmth or tingling sensation for a short time afterward. The Aurora has cooling devices which will help reduce the discomfort.
Side Effects?
Side effects are usually temporary and can include a mild discomfort of warmth and tingling, swelling, redness, darkening of pigmented lesions, superficial scabbing, crusting or blister.
