Will drinking Alcohol after my Halo Fractional Laser Treatment affect the healing process?

Thank you for your question. Although I do not think that (within reason) alcohol consumption will not negatively impact the outcome of your treatment, I generally recommend that patients refrain from consumption for several days prior to treatment and until after the swelling has dissipated post procedure. In addition to the dehydration others have discussed, it increases the swelling post-procedure which will delay the healing process. 

Drinking alcohol immediately after having the halo resurfacing treatment should not negatively affect your overall outcome. Drinking alcohol can make you temporarily dehydrated and could possibly slow down healing time but should not affect your overall outcome. Best of luck with your results!
