I am thinking of having profound on my face and neck, is it safe to go to the beach 10 days later?
RealSelf actual patient comment:
I will be getting profound on my face and neck but will be leaving for the beach 10 days later, my skin gets dark very easily and even a pimple leaves a mark for days, also a scar leaves discoloration, thank you
A.One of the nice aspects of Profound RF is that you may resume normal activities relatively soon following the treatment. Since your skin is sensitive, it would be best to plan your treatment at a time when you would not be exposed to intense sun for at least 3 to 4 weeks. Usually all of the micro-needle tiny punctures are well healed by one week, but why take chances with your sensitive skin? Of course make sure that you use and reapply sun block daily, especially when at the beach. Good luck and be well.
