Question 1

Does laser help with wrinkles?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Laser skin treatments for resurfacing skin will remove wrinkles. Depending on the type of laser system being used and how well your body responds to treatment, laser treatments can reduce the appearance of deep wrinkles, smooth out moderate wrinkles, and eliminate mild wrinkles.

Question 2

What does the face look like after laser treatment?

Accepted Answer

You'll have some redness and swelling. You may also experience itching or stinging for a few days after the procedure. Depending on the treatment, some people may have what looks like a severe sunburn. The skin will be raw, oozing and may even blister.

Question 3

Can I put moisturizer after laser treatment?

Accepted Answer

Moisturize your treated skin. Right after the treatment is done, you'll have ointments applied to the area to help the healing start and to prevent infection. Once you stop using the ointment, you'll need to keep the skin moisturized with approved lotions and protective skincare treatments.

Question 4

What should you not do after laser?

Accepted Answer

Avoid hot baths and hot showers for 48 hours. Avoid anything that involves chlorine (e.g. swimming) for 48 hours. Avoid make-up on the treated area for at least 48 hours. Avoid the application of perfumed products or bleaching creams for 48 hours.

Question 5

How long does it take for dark spots to fade after laser treatment?

Accepted Answer

The most common (and expected) side effect is a darkening of the more superficial brown spots of the areas being treated. This darkening of superficial brown spots will flake off after about 7-14 days.

Question 6

Can I shower after the laser?

Accepted Answer

Showering immediately after a laser hair removal session is not recommended. When you have a laser treatment the skin will remain sensitive to heat for a period of 24-48 hours. Keep the skin cool and free from perfumed or scented products during this time.
