This question is definitely one of my top 5 frequently asked questions, so I wanted to share some insight so that you’re more prepared- and not so scared too!
The answer is YES. Most likely you will bleed a little bit… but most people only bleed a tiny amount. The bleeding usually comes out as sweat like dots of blood or just lymph coming out of your skin.
There are plenty of reasons why people bleed from this procedure and plenty of reasons that will determine how much they bleed. Some reasons include:
Skin texture
Medications that you may be taking
Taking blood thinners
Lifestyle choices like diet and alcohol intake
These factors can have an effect on the amount of bleeding that may occur the day of your procedure. This is why it is so important that you prepare for your appointment by following the instructions that are provided during your initial consultation. These guidelines help to ensure that you’re minimising bleeding and making the treatment (and results) work best for you!
