Aftercare for Emerald Laser

Thank you for choosing Skin Medical for your Emerald treatment. We are excited to help you achieve your skincare goals! To ensure you get the most from your treatment and support your skin’s recovery, please review the following aftercare instructions. 

Common side effects following Emerald treatment may include: 

• You may notice a mild warmth or tingling sensation during and after treatment in the treated area
• Some patients experience a temporary increase in urination as the lymphatic system processes the release fat. This is a positive sign that your body is responding well to the treatment.
• Slight skin tightness in the treated area, which should resolve within a few days

These side effects are temporary and should subside within 1-2 days. If you experience anything unusual or prolonged, please feel free to contact us. 

✅ Stay hydrated: Drink at least 2–3 litres of water daily for the next few days to support fat metabolism and lymphatic drainage. 
✅ Engage in light movement: A brisk walk or gentle stretching will enhance circulation and improve results. 
✅ Avoid processed foods for at least 24 hours post treatment to  maximise fat elimination
✅ Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and excessive salt intake for at least 24 hours after treatment, as these can lead to fluid retention and reduce detoxification efficiency.
✅ Maintain a healthy lifestyle: A balanced diet and regular exercise will help sustain long-term benefits.
✅ Refrain from tight clothing around the treated areas to allow optimal circulation. 
✅A gentle lymphatic massage may be recommended after your session to aid in fat elimination
✅ Follow your scheduled Emerald treatment plan for the best results. It is also recommended to massage the targeted areas after treatment to support lymphatic drainage and fat removal.
