How Can I Correct Redness Around the Eyes 10 Weeks After Fraxel Laser?

At first I have to apologize for my bad english(i'm from italy). 10 weeks ago I had fraxel laser(palomar starlux 1540)around the eyes to treat my eye circles. Now, although i used different creams:Auriderm,zinc oxide(what i'm using now)and for three days a cortisone cream(it increased the redness)-the treated area is still red.will this redness stay forever or will it go away with time? If it stays like that, is it possible to try with ipl or with some laser?
