Send photos in 4 weeks so we can can follow up to see if you're ready for the next session of if your body needs more time to heal. Some people heal faster/slower depending on your individual body health, metabolism, and lifestyle. If you're healing slowly next session will be around the 90 day mark/ If that's the case we need to make sure your body is healing to its full potential before continuing treatment.

Note that darker skin types may need 3-6 months between treatments to completely heal and encourage properly healing to reduce the risk of strong hyperpigmentation.
