DAY 7

It’s the morning of day seven and for the most part, everything is really healed very nicely. I am still using a thin layer of Aquaphor, and then I did start to use today.

So the redness under my eyes, I don’t know if you can see, but there is still just like a little scab here and a little spot here. And then there was just a little bit of redness around my mouth, but that has pretty much been able to be covered with the tinted sunscreen.

The only thing it doesn’t help with is broken blood vessels. For this we use intense pulsed light [IPL].” Because SmartXide doesn’t go as deep as traditional CO2 lasers, the treatment requires only topical anesthesia and isn’t considered painful—although you might feel some minor discomfort, often described as a stinging sensation.
