When to wash face after laser cosmetology
Can you wash your face after laser treatment, in fact, it is not generalized, because it is what type of laser to look at, if it is a damaging laser, after the laser will have bleeding scab phenomenon, then in this case can not wash your face, usually until the natural scab off after goodbye water wash, this time will recover better.

After laser treatment, in addition to preventing infection and promoting skin repair, there is also a very important link, that is, we must pay attention to sun protection, no matter what type of laser treatment is done, it must be strict sun protection, because after just finishing the laser, the skin's melanin metabolism will have some enhancement, and it will become more sensitive to ultraviolet light. In addition, the skin barrier is also somewhat damaged, so sun protection is very important at this time. Whether outdoors or indoors, we need to use a certain means of sun protection. In the early days, we can not see the water, we can use physical sun protection, such as umbrellas, wearing a hat. When the sun is relatively strong, try to avoid going out; in the room, because there is also a certain amount of ultraviolet light penetrating in, or there is some light with ultraviolet light, so it is necessary to carry out sunscreen.
