 At Pure Cosmetics, your safety and comfort are our top priorities. Here's what you need to know about the safety and potential side effects of the ZianMed Allegra IPL treatment:

• Safety Measures: Conducted by trained professionals using FDA-approved technology.
• Comfort Protocols: Cooling gels or devices may be used to minimize discomfort during the procedure.
• Common Side Effects: Temporary redness, mild swelling, or a slight sunburn-like sensation, typically resolving within a few hours to a day.
• Less Common Side Effects: Slight darkening of pigmented areas or minor peeling, which generally subside with proper post-treatment care.
• Rare Side Effects: Infection or blistering, though rare, can be minimized by following post-treatment instructions closely.

The ZianMed Allegra IPL treatment may not be suitable for everyone. Contraindications include:

• Active Skin Infections: Such as herpes simplex or other infections in the treatment area.
• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.
• Recent Sun Exposure: Avoid if you have had excessive sun exposure or recent tanning.
• Certain Medications: Use of medications that increase photosensitivity (e.g., certain antibiotics, Accutane).
• Chronic Skin Conditions: Such as eczema or psoriasis in the treatment area.
• Autoimmune Diseases: Conditions like lupus or other autoimmune disorders affecting the skin.

To prepare for your ZianMed Allegra IPL treatment, follow these guidelines:

• Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of the sun and avoid tanning beds for at least two weeks prior to treatment.
• Stop Certain Medications: Discontinue use of any photosensitizing medications as directed by your provider.
• Hydrate: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated. Well hydrated skin responds better to treatment. 
• Clean Skin: Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup, lotions, or creams.

Proper post-treatment care is essential for optimal results and minimal side effects:

• Cool Compresses: Apply cool compresses to reduce swelling and discomfort.
• Moisturize: Use a gentle moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated and promote healing.
• Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your skin by wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and avoiding direct sunlight for at least a week.
