Post-Procedure Skin Care 101

Just had a biopsy? Here’s how to care for your skin so it heals beautifully 👇

🩹 First 24 hours: Keep our dressing on.
🌤️ Next day: Gently cleanse, then apply Vaseline, Aquaphor, or your prescribed ointment.
🧴 Cover with a Band-Aid or non-stick gauze (depending on the site) and change daily.
💊 Tylenol is okay for discomfort. Avoid Aspirin, Ibuprofen, or Aleve for 48 hours.
❄️ Ice can help with swelling (5 min on, 5 min off).
🚨 Call us if you notice redness, pus, or bleeding that won’t stop with pressure.

Healing takes time, be patient and gentle with your skin 💗

What is PDT?

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a powerful treatment that uses light therapy to target and destroy pre-cancerous skin cells.💡

Here’s how it works:
1️⃣ A medical assistant applies Levulan, a light-sensitizing solution, to your skin.
2️⃣ Levulan selectively penetrates cells that are rapidly dividing (like pre-cancers and early skin cancers).
3️⃣ Blue light activates the Levulan, destroying those unwanted cells. Treatment takes about 30 minutes.

Immediately after your treatment is completed, sunscreen will be applied. Over the next 48 hours, you are expected to avoid sunlight and limit your exposure to light given off by screens.

After the treatment your skin may have a "sunburn-like" reaction which may include peeling, redness, itching, tenderness.

Thinking about PDT? Talk to your dermatologist to see if this treatment is right for you!

We’re excited to welcome the newest members of our medical assistant team. These bright, driven students spend a year or two gaining hands-on clinical experience before starting medical school, PA school, or nursing school.

Our Gap Year Program is more than just a job, it’s an opportunity to work side-by-side with board-certified dermatologists, assist in patient care, and learn skills that will last a lifetime.

Help us give them a warm welcome in the comments!
