I had a few chemical peels 20 years ago which went well. I am looking to get CO2 laser resurfacing next year with the Lumenis Ultrapulse for acne scars, lines and a better tone. However the last year or two my face tingles and feels sensitive and I seem to have aged all of a sudden. I have been using salysic acid, tea tree oil, vitamin c and retinol. Unknown to me I may have damaged my ph level. Can I still get CO2 laser in the future? Can I do anything over the next year to prepare my skin?
How often co2 with PRP goes badly and leaves scars or weird skin texture? Theres so many negative comments and I have the procedure next week and Im a bit scared should I do it or not. Please tell me your experience. And what happens when it goes wrong? Thank you doctors in advance! Ive been doing everything to make my skin stronger, using DNA regenersation serum with growth factors, taking zinc and vit C, manesium. Can you give me some tips? Im having it for facial scars.
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'm using Obagi gentle cleanser, Regenica Repair (growth factors), Cereve moisturizer, and of course SPF. Should I add some Vitamin C serum or Retinol at this point? My skin is healed but still slightly pink. Thanks!!
