I had halo laser procedure 7 days ago. What type of skin care/products should I be using now?

After a Halo Treatment we require our patients to use pure medical grade hyaluronic serum for the first 24 hours.   Some will opt for PRP treatment afterwards, which is not necessary but does seem to speed healing. PRP is platelet rich plasma which is extracted from your own blood and then plated out on your skin after the treatment is completed.  After 24 hours a return to your normal skin care products is allowed.  Only exceptions are no physical scrubs, no glycolic or sal acid cleansers or lotions, or any retin A products for a full week.  After a week all products are allowed. 

After 1 week, we have our patients slowly introduce medical-grade products into their skincare routine.  It is always best to follow up with the provider that you received treatment from and follow their recommendations.  Skin care is an important investment to help maintain your results and help prevent reoccurrence. 

We have our patients apply Elta cream for the first few days, then they can use any non irritating creams such as Aveeno cream for 1-2 weeks. After that, they can then return back to their normal skin care regimen including using a good sun block. Check with your doctor to see what their routine is.
