Bleeding Normal After Fraxel CO2 Laser Treatment? (photo)

I just had Fraxel CO2 done this morning. My face started bleeding 5 to 6 hours after it's done. Is it normal? I'm really worry. I'm starting a new job in 10 days. This is not what I'm expected. Please advise. Thanks!

Healing will be complete after Fraxel Repair in about 5-7 days

What you are experiencing is entirely normal and will likely not happen after 1-2 days of healing. When you start your new job in 8 days you can expect some residual redness/pinkness and flushing but all this should be easily covered with makeup.

Expect bleeding for the first 12-24 hours. The bleeding should subside. If you don’t bleed a little, the treatment was probably too superficial.

Bleeding after Fraxel?

I agree. You will likely be fine for your new job. Perhaps you should have been better informed as to what to expect after your procedure. But relax.
