Question

If so what can I do please . I’m in day 10 after the laser . They were fading but now they seem to have stop fading and left those shapes :(

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Hyperpigmentation and inflammation after laser procedures is quite common. In general, hyperpigmentation of any kind needs a combination approach of peels like Cosmelan, lasers like Clear + Brilliant, Aerolase and Laser Genesis, radiofrequency treatments like Venus Viva, and constant skin care and sun protection. Bimonthly facials with SilkPeel / DermalInfusion are essential to hydrate, exfoliate and infuse vitamins and antioxidants into the skin. I suggest getting a formal evaluation with an expert in lasers and peels. Best, Dr. Emer.
