Always use a high factor (Min SPF 30) sunscreen and protect the treated area from exposure to sunlight for one month following treatment.

Tanning after treatment may enhance melanin regeneration, which may result in hyper-pigmentation.

Care should be taken to prevent trauma to the treated area for the first four to five days following treatment: No hot baths, no aerobic exercise, massaging etc.
If scabs appears after blistering they should be kept soft with lubricating cream such as Vaseline.

If the treatment is exposed to dirt, it should be covered with a dressing for ten days. Patients should not participate in rough sport until the skin returns to normal.

There maybe changes of pigmentation in the treated area. Most cases occur in people with darker skin types, or when the treated area is exposed to direct sunlight. The changes should fade in 3-6 months but in rare cases may be permanent.
