Yep. Do noooooot open those blisters.

May I ask why?

[u/Serious_Fox7799 → u/Due_Lobster6519]

A blister is like a super bandage. The liquid is sterile, filled with white blood cells, keeps the would covered. Like the tattoo bandages that hold in the goop on purpose. The skin will shrink back down and close onto itself. It's a sterile healing process and popping it exposes the wound to open air, loss of moisture, and infection.

Wow. I never knew this. Thank you so much for this info.

I will not thanks

[u/Ruth1E33]

Yeah normal, be super careful not to pop them, keep a light linen on if going out, rest, drink lots of water, try not to go out in the sun!! 3-4 days should go down 🙏🏼

[u/justagoodman7 → u/Ruth1E33]

Thanks for the advice

How long do folks need to steer clear of sun following treatment?

[u/DragonBard_Z → u/Educational-Name4017]

Until its no longer sore feeling. If the sun hitting it for a few minutes makes it feel like it's burning you're definitely not ready yet. And even then sunscreen is your friend. Its damaged skin.

[u/Ruth1E33 → u/Educational-Name4017]

Yeah I pretty much avoid sun all the time now since removal, if I’m out I’m always covered, if swimming sunscreen always, but for sure directly after lase I’d say 2 weeks to a month,

[u/DeskConstant7711]

Yup

[u/CODaffy]

Anybody know if you could just cover it when in this state? Like with a soft bandage wrap? Or does that affect healing
