The laser hair removal technician told me to stop using retinol and AHA/BHA products 2 wks before and after laser. If I'm getting laser on my upper lip, can I still use these products on the rest of my face? Are there other skincare products that I shouldn't be using? Is benzoyl peroxide, Vitamin C + Ferulic acid ok?
