2nd Treatment
The results from the first treatment definitely minimized the scars but they were far from what I hoped for. I went in for a follow up 6 months post op and the laser tech offered to do a 2nd treatment for free. I decided to schedule that appointment now so that it is healed by the summer. I was way more prepared this time around. I requested to do a much smaller area so that I can care for it on my own. Also, so I can sleep on my back. I've made sure to keep it moist and I have to say this time around is not so bad. Maybe because I knew exactly what I was getting myself into? I'll try to post picture updates so that you have something to compare these to.

Day 6: I had a hard time at work yesterday not only because of the burning and itch but also because I cannot easily appliy aquaphor or cetaphil by myself. I had trouble finding a shirt to cover every area so I told a lot of people it was sunburn. :/ For today I convinced my boss to let me work from home. It does feel quite a bit better. It is peeling quite a bit. Also, for those having trouble with the itch the Allegra, Ibuprofen and hydrcortison mix is working wonders! I think it was so painful and uncomfortable initally because it wasn't moist enough. My shirts tend to soak up ointments. A dry itch is not fun!

Day 2: Day two there was still a lot of burning, swelling and a little bleeding. It is also turning a brownish yellow color in areas which I read is not good. I'm wondering if that is because I was not rinsed or washed initially after the treatment. Also, I was told not to wash for 24-36 hours. This was really really hard for me to do.
