After your Treatment
The PureDerma triggers your natural healing processes to heal your 'micro wounds' immediately. Results are not always visible immediately, as your skin can appear red and feel hot. The most dramatic results will not be visible until twelve weeks after treatment. It takes the body 4-6 weeks to produce new, stronger and healthier collagen and 12 weeks to fully renew the cells.
This treatment can be safely repeated every 4 weeks until you achieve the desired results. For collagen induction, we recommend starting with 3 treatments, with a minimum separation time of 4 weeks between treatments. For scar reduction, an average of 6 treatments is recommended.
It is advisable that you attend for maintenance appointments approximately every 8-12 months to maintain your results.
- Reduced fine lines
- Tighter and lifted appearance, offering more definition
- Healthier skin
