What are the compounds in daily facial products I should avoid when experiencing post-pico laser side effects

Doctor's Answer

In general, after any laser treatment, whether in the presence or absence of side-effects, a daily skincare regimen should be kept simple to allow full healing to occur.

Hence, abrasive cleansers, toners, masks and any acidic products should be avoided. This can prevent any bad reaction or uncomfortable feeling on the skin, which can include the feeling of itching or more redness.

In the presence of side-effects, it is important that you are reviewed by your performing doctor early and closely so that the specific side-effects may be dealt with quickly and correctly to minimize the risk of more permanent complications from developing.
