Post-care:Following Cynosure Elite iQ treatment, mild redness and swelling may occur and typically subside within 24 hours. It is crucial to avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for at least two to four weeks, consistently applying SPF 45+ sunscreen to treated areas if exposure is unavoidable. Maintain cleanliness by gently washing the area, avoiding harsh scrubbing or shaving for several days, and consider applying a soothing, non-irritating ointment or cooling gel.

Risks:Common temporary side effects: Erythema (redness); mild edema (swelling); itching or irritation; temporary skin sensitivity; discomfort during treatment (mild snapping sensation, warmth). Rare risks: Blistering or burns; hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation (lightening or darkening of the skin); crusting and scabbing; hives; ocular injury if eye protection not used.
