TO PREPARE FOR YOUR TREATMENT:
- Do not use topical steroid medications at least one hour prior to treatment.
- If your treatment is for Psoriasis, the treatment will be more effective if you soak and exfoliate the affected area before coming for treatment.
- It is best to wear clothing that will minimize exposure to unaffected areas and to wear the same type of clothing each time you come for treatment.
- If your affected area requires a full body treatment, please ensure that private areas are covered: for women, the areolas and for men, the scrotum.
- Bring your goggles with you for every treatment
