hi allison

i had laser resurfacing to reduce my acne scar....is it ok to use vitamin C serum on my face before the laser treatment?
or when should i use the vitamin C serum?

thanks in advance

Hi there,

vitamin c is excellent in pre and post laser treatment. It is AHA/BHA and retinol that should not be used directly before or after those kinds of treatments.

Vitamin C will help with the healing so go ahead. Just go cautiously with high potency vitamin C preparations if the skin is feeling angry or raw, you may find it will irritate it if there is tender or open skin.
