The following problems may occur with the above treatments:
1.
There is a risk of scarring.
2.
Short term effects may include reddening, mild burning, temporary bruising or blistering. Hyper-pigmentation
(browning) and Hypo-pigmentation (lightening) have also been noted after treatment. These conditions usually resolve
within 3-6 months, but permanent color change is a rare risk. Avoiding sun exposure before and after the treatment
reduces the risk of color change.
3.
Infection: Although infection following treatment is unusual, bacterial, fungal and viral infections can occur. Herpes simplex
virus infections around the mouth can occur following a treatment. This applies to both individuals with a past history of
herpes simplex virus infections and individuals with no known history of herpes simplex virus infections in the mouth area.
Should any type of skin infection occur, additional treatments or medical antibiotics may be necessary.
4.
Bleeding: Pinpoint bleeding is rare but can occur following treatment procedures. Should bleeding occur, additional
treatment may be necessary.
5.
Allergic Reactions: In rare cases, local allergies to tape, preservatives used in cosmetics or topical preparations have been
reported. Systemic reactions (which are more serious) may result from prescription medicines.
