We use a lot of lasers in blueprint. We use red light therapy. We use broadband light, IPL specific wavelengths like 532 and 1064. We've used five or six different manufacturers. It's something we've worked very hard at. We've learned a lot. We've made a lot of progress as well. I was out in the sun non stop as a kid, never wore sunscreen. So my skin was kind of a mess when we started two years ago. So the state of my skin now is dramatically improved from where we started. I'll don these cool green light and yeah, today's 20 seconds. I'm gonna go hit the yellow button. This is my first treatment. I didn't come as prepared as I would have liked. So I'll come with a long sleeve shirt next time to make sure there's no exposure in any of my skin. I'll also wear a face mask to avoid skinning, to avoid the exposure on any of them I skin except for my neck. So right now I've got sunscreen on my face and my ears, my lips and then I'll probably tuck one arm into my shirt.
