How Can Inflammation And Itching On The Face Be Treated?
On 11/30/17 I had a procedure call CO2 laser & IPL treament. My face was healing nicely until I put sunscreen on yesterday. It became inflamed when I wash my face before bed. I was using Aquaphor, which was fine until the sunscreen and now it also stings, burns and itches when applied. I took 4 benadryl (25 mg) 2 hours apart. Do you have any recommendations of a product I can apply that will keep my face from drying out.?

Hi
Thanks for asking to HCM.
As per your description you might have hypersensitivity reaction for which you can take tablet levocetrizine 12 hourly for 4-5 days. It will help in reducing inflammation.
