    Not knowing how long ago you had this treatment done makes answering this question difficult. From one who has had it done, for the best results, trust me on this, gently put Carmex on your face all over (buy the tube Ez-On application, spreads easier than the thick in the little jar, take at least 2 1000 mg. Vit.E, for 5 days and then cut back to 1 a day, 4000 mg. Vit. C and Calcium softgel 1200 a day. The Carmex will make your face start healing nicely by the second day. Keep applying twice a day. I takes up to a year to heal but by taking these steps you will be looking great 2-3 months after the laser.
    My face was so deeply burned that my skin was like leather and nothing they prescribed would even start to be absorbed, since the lips also get burned and were painful, I dabbed on the Carmex and then wondered if it could help my skin so tried it. It healed my face so fast, next day very noticeable, less than a week healed! And I think it helped keep any scaring away.
    I'm posting (Purple dress) 1 1/2 mo. After laser at 50 yrs. Old. I haven't had anything done since 2nd picture is me now at 60 yrs. Old. Your vitamins you take will make a big difference in your skin, so not necessary to repeat in 5-6 yrs, to keep it young. I would be happy to let you know what Vit.'s I take a day to maintain your youth if you request.
    As for the Hydroquinone 4% the Doctor ordered, I'm NO DR, but if it was me with a burn I would not be putting BLEACH on it. But that's just me. Tom's neighbor and friend, Teresa Marie
