Treatment Schedule

aggressiveness and may vary from 1-5 sessions. Treatments are typically repeated every
3-6 weeks.
It is recommended to schedule follow-up session 2-3 days after the treatment to ensure
safe healing process.
Treatment should be concluded when the results are satisfactory to the patient or
according to the physician's discretion. Generally, 3-5 sessions are needed for mild to
moderate depth settings. It is not typical to perform more than five consecutive sessions.
In some instances, 1-2 sessions may be sufficient.
