I had laser treatment done yesterday and have stayed in all day today not even opened the door. The downtime is 10 days, i just wonder sould i go out for just a bit to see someone that lives like 5 mins away from me cuz am going to be bored as hell in the house. Should i stay in for 10 days or can i pop out like once or twice. I look like a monster at the mo but i would put a hod up or something to cover the sham up. I had to put screen block on every morning so the sun should not be a worry.
A stupid qustion i know.
how long did redness take to subside @The Welshman?

Like Jack said, don't put anything except Vaseline or Aquaphor on your face until your scabs come off. Aquaphor is better because Vaseline has a higher chance of clogging your pores.
If that person is 5 minutes away and doesn't mind that you have gunk all over your face, it should be fine. But make sure you can do vinegar soaks and re-apply Aquaphor 3-4 times a day.
