For office workers with many appointments, how many days should they avoid drinking alcohol or eating foods that raise their body temperature after laser treatment?
2026.11.06 21:09
I've been looking into getting laser treatment lately, but unfortunately, my schedule is packed this month with weekday company dinners and weekend plans, so it's really tricky to schedule a date haha.
Since my skin is irritated after laser treatment, I am concerned about its care. However, if it overlaps with a company dinner or a social engagement, I hesitate to make a reservation for fear of putting unnecessary strain on my skin.
I'm curious about some practical tips on how office workers usually schedule laser treatments when they have company dinners or other social gatherings!
I know it’s best to avoid drinking on the day of the procedure, but would it be better to avoid having a light drink or two the next day or two or three days later? I tend to get very hot and turn red in the face even after just a little bit of alcohol, so I’m worried my skin might become even more sensitive right after the laser treatment. I’m curious how many days people usually abstain from alcohol completely.
If I get the procedure done around Friday or Saturday, rest well over the weekend, and then schedule appointments or a company dinner on Monday or during the week, will it be okay for my skin to recover? I would like to know if allowing this much time allows the redness or irritation to subside significantly.
Do many of you avoid not only alcohol but also spicy foods and hot soups that cause sweating or a sudden flush of heat in the early stages of the procedure? Please share any tips on how many days of caution are effective in reducing skin irritation or redness!
I absolutely do not want to carelessly manage my skin and end up with prolonged sensitivity or side effects. ㅠㅠ I'm wondering if I'd feel more at ease if I specifically chose a week with absolutely no important company dinners or consecutive appointments to get the treatment. I would appreciate realistic reviews and advice from those who have been!

- 01CommentsI appreciate you specifically asking to distinguish whether the widespread pigmentation progresses differently from age spots. I will also look forward to your answer regarding whether it is noticeable on my way to work, as that will be helpful for me.230026.11.05
- 02CommentsI also have to go to work, so I was wondering how many days the scab and redness last. I will take your answer into consideration.270026.11.05
- 03CommentsDuring the changing seasons, when blood vessels rapidly dilate due to temperature differences between indoors and outdoors causing flushing to intensify, treatments such as Excel V, Clarity Vascular Mode, or Genesis Toning—which selectively target dilated abnormal blood vessels—are effective for alleviating redness. Vascular lasers are relatively low-burden, as they rarely cause scabbing, and you can return to your daily life immediately after the slight redness or swelling subsides within about half a day. Typically, if you receive consistent treatments for 3 to 5 sessions at intervals of 3 to 4 weeks, you will notice broken capillaries subsiding and your skin tone stabilizing. In particular, home care is essential after the procedure; this includes strengthening the skin barrier with LDM soothing ultrasound, using lukewarm water when washing your face, and applying a generous amount of barrier moisturizing cream to protect against harsh winds when going outdoors!210026.11.06
- 01CommentsI think it would be less of a burden if I could start with a small scope. That is a good question.760026.11.04
- 02CommentsEven for a small brown area next to the nose, it is difficult to distinguish between a mole, freckle, or other pigmentation based solely on a photo, so please get a medical examination first. Providing information on when the spots increased, previous photos, and the products you used will be helpful for the consultation. For areas prone to redness, it would be beneficial to check not only the type of pigmentation but also the current state of irritation, and to receive guidance on criteria for postponing laser treatments and moisturizing methods.980026.11.02

- 02CommentsI understand your desire to make a decision after understanding the frequency and costs. Could I also receive written guidance on the settlement criteria if I change the plan midway?790026.10.30
