4 months after co2 laser resurfacing I seem to be developing an allergy to all sun screen products (even baby sun screen).

Asked By:fabu

I have never had acne in my life, now it seems whatever I put on my face causes a mild case on only 1 cheek and my forehead. Even mild moisturizer results in red bumps. Any suggestions? I simply cant go outside with no sunscreen.
