I had a Micro Laser Peel 7 weeeks ago at a depth of 41. I still have this red pattern along my jaw line. This is the same pattern I had the day of the procedure, however it is much, much lighter. I am happy with the resurfacing results however; I have Rosacea and feel as if I could use a BBL/IPL treatment to calm down some of the red in my face. How long after Micro Laser Peel should I wait for a BBL/IPL treatment?
