LASER TREATMENTS WILL NOT BE PERFORMED ON TANNED SKIN If you arrive for an appointment with a tan, you will be turned away. Active tanning, tanning beds, spray-on tans, wipe-on tans and bronzing lotions are prohibited for clients wishing to have laser treatments at Skin Care Institute. Laser burns will occur on tanned skin. If you are likely to have sun exposure, your skin should be protected. Also, your skin is more sensitive to the sun two to four weeks after a laser treatment. Therefore, sun exposure after laser treatments can damage the skin, as well. Too much sun exposure means a laser treatment will have to be postponed until the tan is gone. For optimal laser treatment results, your skin should be as close as possible to its natural color. Following these guidelines will enable us to continue your treatments as the protocol recommends, with little or no interruption, and with minimal loss of efficacy. If you do have a tan, we require a 24-hour notice to reschedule your laser treatment. Rescheduling means you will not be turned away and will allow us to fill your treatment time with another client. REMEMBER: Use a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher, preferably water and sweat resistant, on all exposed skin during any extended amount of time outside in the sun. Reapply every 2 hours during outdoor activity for optimal results. Medical treatments are performed by licensed aestheticians and registered nurses and are overseen by Dr. Jeff Alexander.
