Laser Mole Removal - Prevent Hyperpigmentation with Vitamin C serum?

I recommend following up with your Doctor about skin care recommendations after your mole removal. Red scars can be improved with a combination of lasers (Excel V, ProYellow, VBeam), Aerolase, microneedling/prp, skin lightening, peels, and skin care. Sun protection is essential. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer

We recommend following up with your physician who administered your treatment as they know your skin best. If a vitamin C is suggested, clinical studies have demonstrated that SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF serum is well tolerated to be used post CO2 treatment. Antioxidants helps protect skin that has been exposed to environmental elements such as sunlight, smoke, and air pollution. It will also help reduce the formation of fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration. SkinCeuticals antioxidants are formulated at an acidic pH, formulated with a concentration between 10-20%, and ensures effective delivery of vitamin C within the skin. With Phloretin CF, patients saw a significant improvement in skin smoothness and general appearance at 1 week post treatment. In addition, it is recommended to minimize sun exposure and apply sunscreen consistently. Hope this helps.

Thank you for
your question meyer2008. Fractional
CO2 laser resurfacing is an outstanding treatment that can address multiple
aspects of aging in a single treatment. Skin care products can be used in combination with such treatments. It would be advisable to ask your doctor about using specific products after your treatment. Please
consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
