I've posted before and after pictures. I am still using lavender essential oil an aloe vera directly from the plant along with geranium oil now since the wounds have healed up it will help with scarring. I never used essential oils previously but this has made me a believer. I was initially told I would scar in a few areas as they were second degree but everything looks and feels great. I have been wearing pants/long dressea
for now but once the spots are completely gone I wanted to start wearing shorts but with high protection sunscreen, do you think this is ok?

I think this website should only allow known experts to give advice. I am disgusted to see members give their advice...they have no business commenting without credentials.

Sorry but I have every right to share my experience and what worked for me. Don't read it if you don't like it. Get over yourself.

And those do not look like 1st and 2nd degree burns. I'm not negating that you were burned but let's keep it real

according to a doctor they were 1st and 2nd degree burns but I appreciate your non professional opinion.

Do you even get that 1st degree is the mildest type of burn you can get? Lol

Sad2014 Thank you for sharing your experience. It is so helpful for professionals as well as those who are not in the medical profession. You have done a great job with healing your burns. I am a retired RN and a Certified Laser Technician. You did have a very mild case, you may even have had a mild histamine reaction! Did the laser cause the area that appears to be second degree wound? I work in conjunction with a NMD and she always suggest Arnica and/or lavender oil. If you choose to have this done again, try taking a antihistamine 1 hour prior to the treatment. Wash with only a very mild soap and water and do not apply any lotion prior. Oh, and by the way, continue to ignore comments by those that just seem to want to criticize rather than contribute in a positive, professional way ie: flacpl. Best of luck to you!
