The following problems may occur with the above treatment
1. There is a risk of scarring
2. Short term effects may include reddening, mild, 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 colour change is a rare risk. Avoiding sun exposure before and after the treatment reduces risk of colour change.
3. Infection: Although infection following treatment is unusual, bacterial, fungal and viral infections can occur following a treatment. This applies to both individuals with past history with herpes simplex virus, infections and individuals with no known history of herpes simplex virus infections in the mouth area.
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 of topical preparations have been reported. Systemic reactions(which are more serious) may result from prescription medicine.
6. I understand that exposure of my eyes to light could harm my vision I must keep the eye protection goggles on at all times.
7. Compliance with the aftercare guidelines is crucial for healing, prevention of scarring, and hyper-pigmentation.
