After the healing process is complete, it is safe to use oil-free makeup to conceal the pink-to-red color that is often visible after undergoing laser resurfacing. To counteract the redness in the skin, it is recommended to use green-based makeup. It is worth noting that the redness in the treated areas usually subsides within two to three months, but it may take up to six months to completely fade away. People with blonde or red hair may experience the redness for a more extended period.
