I performed a whole face treatment with a fractionated Co2 laser 45 days ago and my skin is still very red. I have rosacea and sensitive skin. Before performing the procedure, I informed the doctor about this, and asked him to make a more superficial parameter, but at the end of the treatment he told me that he had done something deeper. is it normal to be red for so long?

Work with a provider experienced in C02 laser resurfacing to prepare your skin for your procedure. They will ensure your procedure is scheduled only after proper preparation and evaluate you for any skin conditions that may need to be treated prior to laser treatment. Best, Dr. Tkatch
