How do I keep bumpy texture away? It was smooth after Fraxel but now coming back

CJBARNov 21, 2017
I'm getting a second fraxel treatment in a couple months but find the bumpy texture is back but was wondering what is the best makeup remover and sunscreen for super sensitive skin? I have a lot of allergies, I use bare minerals powder, only physical spf...I find it hard to remove though and garnier micellar is not helping my texture possibly bad for me? and cerave is not enough to remove. I use retin a at night. I'm allergic to lanolin and formaldehyde and have very sensitive skin.

I would speak to your treating physician.  Injection of lidocaine should provide better pain control than topical.  You can always try topical to see how you do with it. We normally use topically numbing for fraxel restore and leave it on for an hour. Good luck with your continued treatment.

If you are ever concerned please always speak to your provider so they are aware and can guide you through the healing process. It can take 3-5 days for most people to recovery from fraxel dual.  It also depends based on how sensitive the patients skin is and the aggressiveness of the treatment....
