How can I best deal with the scabs as a result of undergoing fractional laser treatment?

Doctor's Answer

Skincare after fractional lasering isn’t too complicated. Simply use a mild cleanser and moisturize frequently using a gentle moisturizer to facilitate skin healing over the next 5-7 days and for the tiny scabs to fall off on their own.

Avoid abrasive skin cleansers, facial masks and most importantly, avoid picking on the scabs.

Stay away from the sun, minimize vigorous physical activities and so slow on your usual skincare regime as your skin may be a little sensitive immediately after fractional lasering.
