Title: How long does the redness last?? (Still here Monday morning)
Post by: KabitTarah on September 23, 2013, 06:47:13 AM
I had laser on Friday at 3-4 pm. There was no redness, only a bit sore afterward.

The next morning, I was covered with beesting red splotches. It was sore.
These continued into Sunday. I didn't shave Sunday.

Monday morning, I'm at work... and I'm still red.

When does it end? What can I do to help it?

That would be unusual. Redness for me is usual gone in a couple hours. It may be you sustained some minor burns on the skin. I would call your laser place.

I had laser for the first time yesterday and like Suzi my redness was gone pretty quickly - today I just look normal. I would call the laser place and tell them what happened and see what they say to do.
