can someone help me with a lightsheer diode question. type 3. Does the fluence make a difference on whether or not the results are permanent? For example, treatments at auto 23 verses auto 40…would the 40 fluence be most permanent and would the 23 be more long term but not so permanent?
Thank you for your help
Hi solace13!
Yes, effectiveness has been demonstrated to be fluence-dependent. The higher the fluence, the more likely you are to have permanent results.
Side effects are also fluence-dependent. The higher the fluence, the more likely you are to get burns, doscoloration, and scarring. For this reason, it’s very important to go to someone who can work near your skin’s threshold in order to cause maximum results with minimum side effects.
