I had CO2 Laser on my entire face. The doctor was very aggressive underneath my eyes. This was done March 15, 2013 which will be three weeks this coming Friday. I still have a lot of redness as well as very visible blisters underneath my eyes. I'm keeping Aquaphor Healing Ointment on the area and washing morning and night with a very gentle soap. Last week there was some break through bleeding. Is there anything at all that you can suggest that I can do to help this heal?
I had CO2 laser done on February 20th, 2019, and it will be three weeks this upcoming Wednesday. My skin had hyperpigmentation and deeper acne scarring (pictured). I used Vaseline and the vinegar soaks, and the Vaseline did make me breakout. Weirdly, I didnt scab but I did feel my skin feeling very itchy and dry (to which I constantly moisturized). Now, Im seeing even more unevenness than before and deeper scarring. Is this normal? Thanks in advance!
I'm very concerned about my face. The left side is OK, but the right side has red blotches and streaks and looks terrible. What's the chance of this fading? My doctor says it will but I have the feeling he's brushing me off. Using triamcinolone acetonide ointment 0.1% 3 times per day, along with cetaphil cleanser. How concerned should I be about these marks being permanent, and should I be using something else to get rid of these streaks and blotches?
I have had 3 aggressive courses spaced apart to get rid of dark pigment. Have been using vitamin c cream everyday plus intense brightening serum with kojic acid nightly and every third night a cream called Meladeep. So the pigment does not come back and the area stays light. But I find I am red raw in the area. Am not in any pain though. Should I continue with the products I was told to use is this normal to help it all not go back to darker skin?
I recently found a product called Vitamin C Serum (20% Hyaluronic Acid) on Amazon. I want to use this product on my face. I had several small benign moles removed from my face with a CO2 laser. The spots are still pink/red and I noticed just one spot looking apparently darker than the others. I was wondering if it's okay to use this product on my face to fight the risk of hyper pigmentation. Will this also help heal these red/pink spots any faster? I am currently 3 weeks post treatment.
I am 3 weeks post co2 laser resurfacing and I'm still very red and dry. Makeup isn't able to cover it up. I'm concerned about the obvious line above my jawline. Is this demarcation? Why wouldn't the Dr laser the whole area. The other side is fine. It goes all the way to the jawline.
I had co2 laser under eyes 3 weeks ago all was great no red no brown looked normal. Then about 3 days ago i stupidly used a facewash with exfoliator irritants in both products. Now my area where the laser was is bright red so itchy looks like 2 burns under my eyes now. It is inflammed. Can you tell me what will help me and will this recover. Its worse now than ut was 2 or 3 weels ago. I used aloe vera and cool compress Thank you so much
