Can I wear my normal liquid foundation after a few days of getting face laser?

Question

Does it have to be mineral makeup like most say?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I recommend following up with your practitioner about their protocol for wearing make-up after your procedure. Keep in mind, it will take a series of treatments to get results with laser hair removal. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Harold J. Kaplan, MD · Answer

Hello,Without knowing what type of laser treatment you had, your practitioner should advise as to what is the best post-treatment skin care regimen when it comes to your make up routine.  On a side note, we encourage patients to discontinue mineral make up if they are struggling with acne, rosacea, or sensitive skin. In our practice, non-ablative (no downtime) laser treatments allow for patients to return to their make up routine quickly if not same day.  Much depends on the type of condition we are treating laser used.
