Answer: Soaks with water and vinegar helps after Fraxel Repair
The after care for Fraxel Repair is very important.
We advice our patients to start soaking with water and vinegar as soon as they arrive home followed by application of Aquaphor every 2-3 hours for the first 3 days.
They are also to take the antibiotics, antivirals and anti fungals two times a day for one week.
We also bring the patients everyday or every other day for treatments with the Omnilus Red 633 nm for faster healing.
We dont start any other topicals for one week after the procedure to eliminate any risk of contact dermatitis.

Answer: Fraxel Repair aftercare For the first 72 hours after Fraxel repair, you should follow a strict protocol of vinegar soaks and aquaphor ointment. You should also be take Valtrex (or another anti-herpetic medication). After that, you should use a gentle moisturizer and skin cleanser. Different doctors have their own products that they prefer, so you should get detailed directions and after care instructions from the physician doing your treatment.
