Daily sunscreen application is necessary after healing to protect the newly laser-resurfaced skin. A broad-spectrum sunscreen, which screens both ultraviolet B and ultraviolet A rays, is recommended. A sunscreen specifically formulated for use on the face should be chosen, and with at least a sun protection factor (SPF)of 15. Liberal moisturizer application is also recommended after healing. Clients may resume application of Retin-A and/or glycolic acid products around six weeks after the procedure or as directed by Dr. Benchetrit.
