Pink and White Gridlines Post SMARTXIDE Laser
Good day, I did the SMARTXIDE laser resurfacing around 11 days back and am bothered by the redness that is still persisting on the treated areas. Further, there are gridlines that are really apparent on my face throughout. My questions are as follows: 1. How long (if it ever will) usually does the redness and gridlines subside? 2. What are the products that can be used to reduce/mask these? 3. Is it okie to use a self tanning cream to reduce these gridlines and redness? Thanks.

Left-over color in SmartXide treatment
It is very common to have a grid pattern on the treated areas for a time after SmartXide laser. It is very similar to what happens when you skin your knee. It takes a while for the irritation to go away. I have never (and I use that word very cautiously!) seen it persist when using this laser.

Hi there - please can you confirm if these marks and lines faded and if so after how long? I am concerned as it has been 14 days and I still have the track marks very visible on my face and it is still very red. Many thanks.
