I need to protect my results and want to make sure no sun reaches my face and neck. What is the best sunblock to use that can be obtained in the US market (prescription or other)?

Answer: Best sunblock after laser Really simple. Turn the bottle over and look for one of two ingredients: zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. These provide true physical block to both uva and uvb exposure. Also reapply every two hours if sweating or strenuous activity. Hope this was helpful.

Answer: Sunscreen after laser treatment Thanks for your question! We love the Elta MD Physical or Elements which have both zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, and act as a barrier to the sun rather than a chemical sunscreen. Those sunscreens are very soothing to recently resurfaced skin and are also very cosmetically elegant, meaning they don't look white or pasty on the skin. Hope you love your laser results!
