I am having Fraxel Repair soon and have the protocol for the first 3 days (Cetaphil cleanser, Aquaphor every 2 hours then Vanicream). How soon can I wear mineral make up and can you suggest lines of make up that help to conceal the redness when I will finally be able to get out and go to work, etc.?
At about 4-5 days, the aquphor is stopped and moisterizers are used. At his point, you can start to wear mineral make up. Make sure it's newly purchased and the applicator is new as well. I give my patients a tinted sunscreen which seems to hide the pinkness well.
