Self-tanning Lotion Safe After Fraxel Repair?

Lin in MA
I am considering having the Fraxel Repair. I understand that staying out of the sun and wearing protective sunscreen will be very important after the treatment. Can I use a "self-tanning" lotion at some point? How long should I wait to use after having the procedure? I would just like a little color on my face.
