Retinol cream for post CO2 laser mole removal?

August 15, 2018
Asked By:poorbunny888 in Beverly Hills, California

I just got a mole removal (flat brown nevus approx. 1cm circumference) by CO2 laser. It's healing nicely just by applying aquaphor. No scabs but there is redness left behind. I plan to continue treatment after the wound heals completely with scar cream such as Dermatix and Vitamin C serum. Could I also use retinol/retinaldehyde cream? I'm afraid it's not allowed since it was a mole there.
