I have done fractional Co2 yesterday on my face for pigmentatio & acne scars,my doctor recommended to leave my skine bare after procedure until my whole face peels off on its own, no vaseline nor aquafor,nothing at all. Only water pads.she said any moisturizer will delay and stop the peeing last timei had Co2 fractional in different Clinic and the dr used to prescribe MEBO for me immediately after procedure and until full peel 5 days. Is it ok to leave my skin bare to dry and peel off like this
