  4. You will wear goggles/eye protectors if the wound is close to your eyes or if the light might impact your eyes.
  5. The procedure takes 10-15 minutes. You will feel some warmth where the light is applied. Avoid changing positions during the procedure to allow the strength of the light to be stable for the best results.
  6. Once the time is up, you will hear a sound. The lamp can be removed and the wound dressed normally.
You can resume normal activities and dress the wound normally.
Normally there are no side effects of the procedure, though some patients may experience some redness of the skin. This usually goes away within one hour.

There are no travel restrictions.
Please discuss the likelihood of success with your doctor before the procedure.
