Asked By:lgaliatsatos in Clermont, FL

I have an office job it will be day 9 when I go back to work and face is red. The aquaphor was breaking me out I have oily skin so I changed to vaniply ointment and it feels so much better. I did press on the breakout with washcloth and immediately started bleeding I hope I didn't screw up and going to scar. The doctor used Alma co2 laser level 80 is that a good level? My mom got level & she is so red almost purple. She is now on oral steroid & using vaniply is there anything else to help her?
