What is the recommended sunscreen requirement after a session?

Sunscreen SPF 15 is sufficient.

No sunscreen is needed after treatment.

Broad-spectrum SPF 30+ with reapplication as directed; avoid tanning and consider protective clothing.

After a laser session, the skin is more sensitive to sunlight, so protecting it from UV exposure is essential to prevent irritation, burns, and pigment changes. A broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher provides reliable protection against both UVA and UVB rays, reducing the risk of hyperpigmentation and other sun-related effects during healing. Reapply the sunscreen as directed, and do so more often if you’re sweating or swimming, since the protective layer can wear off. In addition to sunscreen, wearing protective clothing and avoiding tanning during the healing period further minimize exposure and support safer results. SPF 15 or no sunscreen offers less protection, and only using sunscreen outdoors isn’t sufficient if you’re exposed at other times or during peak sun hours.

Only use sunscreen if you go outdoors.
