I should be able to get makeup on by Tuesday or so. I just had another follow up appointment and they said I could make the switch to moisturizer tomorrow but still use the Aquaphor if needed. The doctors are amazed at how quickly my skin is healing..but I can't wait for the make up milestone so that I can feel human again too!! Its just so red
I had the most aggressive procedure I believe...they did 4 passes if I remember correctly and overheard spots getting the 30 setting and some a 70 setting. They said I withstood the pain pretty well! I went for my follow up yesterday and the doctor said my face looks fantastic and has actually improved so much since the Friday afternoon procedure..today I'm just really red but the swelling is beginning to go down. I have to go back on Thursday but he said to continue the soaks/ointment til then.
Thanks, had it done yesterday..lots of oozing and swelling and just feeling uncomfortable. I worry most about the gauze soaks, that I'm doing them properly, but seems to be going ok so far! And I can't wait til I can completely see again!
Thanks for the good tips, I'm having this procedure done this Friday. Where did you find the gauze you used? I noticed the drugstore only has a limited selection, which I practically bought out, but wasn't sure if you recommended a different kind?
