Patients have described the sensation of receiving skin laser therapy as a quick rubber-band snap, resulting in mild discomfort. The procedure is rather quick. You may experience some redness that should resolve within a few hours.
In most cases, you can apply makeup immediately, so there is typically no downtime. In some cases, darkened lesions may progress to scabs or crusting, and will start flaking off in 3-7 days. The lesion is usually healed in 7-10 days and will continue to fade over the next 2-4 weeks. Do not pick, scratch, or remove scabs or crusting.
