Number of inflammatory lesions continues to reduce after 16 weeks of treatment. More than 75% of patients respond with excellent results.

It usually takes around 2 to 16 weeks for the area to heal completely, depending on which part of the body has been treated and how big the area is. It also depends on how strong the reaction was, as reactions vary depending on the amount of diseased skin being treated and individual variability in response.

Coverage is extended for surgical or medical treatment methods, including but not limited to cryosurgery with liquid nitrogen, curettage, excision, and photodynamic therapy (PDT), but with restrictions on the use of PDT to certain patient groups. Please discuss with your Aesthetician.

You will need to be completely out of the sun for 48 hours after treatment. Your skin will be sensitive to sunlight. That means no driving, walking, or being outside for even a few minutes at a time. Wear sunscreen SPF 30 or higher and avoid direct sun exposure while you are healing which can take up to a few weeks. High potency sunscreens with zinc oxide can protect from visible light which is beneficial after PDT. The chemicals used in PDT treatments can linger in your skin for several days and protection from visible light remains important during this time.

There are no known long-term side effects when administered properly. It is  usually performed as an outpatient procedure over a short time. PDT can be repeated if necessary. It’s non invasive.

If the treated area is on your face, wear a wide-brimmed hat. After 48 hours (2 days), continue to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 on the treated area containing zinc oxide.

PDT improves the entire facial area creating a more even colour, texture, and tone.

It can be done daily to enhance the treatments and the skin care routines.

In addition to protecting your health, this therapy can improve your appearance. Removing your precancerous growths may give your skin an even, attractive texture. In addition, this treatment may improve your sun damage, rosacea, pigmentation issues, and other aesthetic problems.

PDT increases cellular turnover and stimulates collagen production to minimise pores and reduce oil glands. Commonly used to treat pre-cancerous lesions, it also has a range of other applications to improve overall skin texture, tone, anti-aging, and acne.

Blue and red light are different types of light. The difference between these lights are depth of penetration on the skin. Blue light is a kind of light only penetrates the skin about 0.5mm, while red light penetrates about 2 to 3mm. Generally red for increased healing and blue to kill off bacteria and viruses.
