While it’s most commonly used on the face, Procell can be used on any area with skin laxity, scars, or stretch marks, such as the neck, décolleté, arms, hands, legs, abdomen, and back.

Most patients start to see skin texture and tone improvements within a week. Still, full results usually appear after a series of treatments, typically around three months after the initial treatment.

A typical Procell treatment takes about 60-90 minutes, including the time for applying the numbing cream.

While you may feel some mild discomfort, most patients find Procell tolerable. A numbing cream can be applied before the treatment to minimize discomfort.

This depends on the individual’s skin condition and desired results. A series of 3-6 treatments, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart, is recommended for optimal results.

Most people experience mild redness and swelling for 24-48 hours after the treatment, similar to a mild sunburn. This is a normal part of the healing process and should subside independently. You’re generally able to resume normal activities immediately after treatment.
