| Before the laser, you need to determine your normal skin condition. The redness may be just a reaction to the topicals you are using.
I suggest stopping ALL topicals, no meds, no sunscreens, no moisturizers, no face washes for 3 weeks. During that time eat lots of fish (salmon, sardines), green vegetables (bell peppers), kiwis, apples, blue berries and all other berries. At the end of the 3rd week if your skin is still red, then it's due to blood vessels not irriation and laser is indeed your only option. |
