how soon can I have facials and complementary dermal therapies after treatment erbium laser for acne
Answer: It is recommended to wait at least 2 weeks before doing a hydrafacial. Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .

Answer: HydraFacial after Erbium I would wait at least two weeks after your last laser treatment. It is important to be gentile with the skin post laser since the surface of the skin is compromised. Your Doctor will have the best answer as to when you can resume other treatments, as they are the ones who created the treatment plan for you.

Answer: HydraFacial after Ablative laser resurfacing Ablative laser resurfacing may take 1-2 weeks or more to heal and this will determine when it is safe to perform HydraFacial. If skin is not adequately epithelialized the HydraFacial will be uncomfortable.I hope this is helpful.Steven L. Greene MD

Answer: Minimum 4 weeks I use hydrafacial and do ablative laser in my office. The skin does remain sensitive for a good 4 weeks and maybe even longer. You probably can do less intense facials (no microderm or vortex cleanising) after 2 weeks as long as your skin is healed and you have the go ahead from your plastic surgeon.

Answer: Hydrafacial after laser skin resurfacing Depending on how intense the resurfacing treatment was, I would wait a minimum of two weeks up to four weeks...perhaps even longer depending on sensitivity of the skin. There is no need to really rush into a facial treatment. I would ask the treating doctor to advise you based on how your skin is healing.
