Aftercare

The treated area may feel irritated; redness may develop, and light scabbing may form.

  • Make sure you do not pick any scabs. Premature removal of scabs may cause hyper- or hypopigmentation and/or scarring.

  • Using a Q-tip, apply a light layer of Dr. Rogers Balm, Aquaphor, or Vaseline to the area twice daily.

  • Sun protection must be used every day until healing is complete to avoid pigment changes.

  • Clean the area with a mild cleanser daily, and gently pat dry.

  • Do not rub, cleanse with a washcloth, or use any exfoliants or products containing alcohol, retinol, or alpha-hydroxy acids for 21 days after the Lam Probe treatment.

  • For 48 hours, DO NOT use a hot tub, swim in a pool, use a sauna, or use a steam room.

  • Make-up may be applied with a clean makeup sponge 24 hours after Lam Probe treatment.
