Is this demarcation? (Photos)

Asked By:madisonaidan in Pasadena, CA

I am 3 weeks post co2 laser resurfacing and I'm still very red and dry. Makeup isn't able to cover it up. I'm concerned about the obvious line above my jawline. Is this demarcation? Why wouldn't the Dr laser the whole area. The other side is fine. It goes all the way to the jawline.
