It generally occurs only after the first treatment session and is indicative of positive changes occurring in the tissue.

Welts are usually small unless your skin has a higher moisture level, and usually disappears 20 - 60 minutes after treatment.

Avoid applying heavy moisturizers, cosmetics or other pore-clogging products, which may block the follicle and delay healing. Antibiotic ointment may be applied if desired. Avoid tanning beds and prolonged exposure to sun due to skin irritation. Avoid hot tubs, jacuzzis and saunas (places where germs proliferate) to reduce the possibility of follicle infection. Avoid depilatories, hair colorants and hair bleach.
