You may not be a suitable candidate for Sciton Erbium Laser if you have:

• Recent sun exposure or tanning, as tanned or sunburned skin increases the risk of complications.
• Pregnancy or breastfeeding, as hormonal changes can affect skin sensitivity and healing.
• Certain skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, or a history of keloid scarring, which may require special precautions.
• Recent use of Accutane (Isotretinoin) within the past 6 months, as it affects skin healing.
• History of poor wound healing or hypertrophic scars, which may increase the risk of complications.
• Recent chemical peels or laser treatments, as your skin needs time to recover before another resurfacing procedure.
• Uncontrolled medical conditions, including certain autoimmune diseases, diabetes, or immune disorders that may impact healing.
• Use of photosensitizing medications, such as some antibiotics or other prescriptions that increase skin sensitivity.
