In this study, researchers want to learn more about the effect of dexpanthenol cream on skin recovery and reduction of skin rash after a dermatological procedure (ablative laser) on the face for treatment of fine wrinkles, scars and open pores in adult women. After the dermatological procedure, participants will return within 3 weeks for 4 visits to the study center to investigate the skin conditions such as redness, irritation, softness and possible side effects. In addition, study participants will be asked about their general acceptance of dexpanthenol cream.

Detailed Description
