How long to wait after Vbeam procedure before CO2 laser? Can I have Vbeam 1 week after?

P

My skin barely gets red after Vbeam, the healing is very fast. I know the waiting time should be 4 weeks or more, but because CO2 has significant downtime I can only do it during holidays which are coming up, that would make it 1 week after Vbeam. How risky is it?

Doxycycline photosensitivity reactions occur at wavelengths that are filtered by the intense pulsed light and the range of problematic wavelengths (350- 410 nm) are well short of the 595 nm wavelength of the Vbeam So you should not have a problem with either of these devices.
