Hi, initially I will use Aquaphor but after day 5 I am looking for a good moisturiser for the eye area, any good suggestions? Regarding the spf 50 I suffer from rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis so I would prefer something silicone and oil free and that does not leave any white cast. Any suggestions?
Answer: Recommend using Elevase moisture booster to hydrate skin after laser treatment Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Follow up with your provider. Great question. The best advice is to follow up with your provider about the best skin care regimen to use following your laser resurfacing treatment. The right moisturizer for you will depend on a number of factors, including your skin type. As for SPF, it is very important to protect your skin from the sun, especially if you have rosacea. Try a physical sunscreen that contains zinc oxide and/or titanium dioxide, which tend to be gentler on sensitive skin than chemical sunscreens. There are many brands of physical sunscreens that rub in clear and don’t look white.

Answer: Sun protection after Laser--try Viva, microneedling/prp, radiofrequency, sculptra, skin care, Cosmelan I recommend following up with your Doctor about after care and sun protection recommendations. We use a specific protocol of exfoliation, hydration, and moisturizing along with protection after laser treatments. PDT therapy can calm any inflammation. I always combine lasers with microneedling/prp to get more of an outcome. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Laser Resurfacing After laser surfacing, it’s important to keep all areas treated moisturized. Immediately following the procedure, Aquaphor is an excellent and affordable choice. With regards to sunscreen, you want to use one that is specifically formulated for the face to avoid clogging pores.
