The average should be 3-4 weeks unless you were treated very aggressively. I would check with a dermatologist laser expert in your area... more

Hello, Same as Reddy, I am over 5 weeks out from the re:pair and I am still very red; in fact, it has really interrupted my usual life events as makeup won't cover it and makes me look...well, made up.
