It has been about 4 months and the redness comes and goes but right now I can barely cover it with makeup. Is there anything that will help reduce the redness?

Answer: Redness after laser resurfacing around the eyelids Prolonged redness following laser resurfacing of the eyelids is not uncommon. I would recommend topical arnica, and oral arnica. There are sublingual formulations that slip under the tongue, this will help. In severe cases, IPL may help reduce some of the redness. Be absolutely sure that you have great eye protection during this if your expert recommends it. Otherwise, time is your friend. Avoiding extreme exertion will help during the healing process.

Answer: Redness following laser resurfacing Redness may last for up to 6 months following heavy laser resurfacing, especially after CO2 laser. Treatments such as low level laser, IPL and vascular laser can help to reduce the redness over the next few months. Your specialist who performed the procedure can assist you. All the best, Dr Davin S. Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
