Hello,
In every animal model including human, once you remove blood vessels, regrowth does not start until day five and it goes crazy during days 5 to 14 (or 17). This is the acute phase when you can literally undo everything that has been done be flushing too much. I always tell the people I personally treat with laser to not do anything to cause a flush (if you can) until at least two weeks post laser. I understand the lifting as my muscles yell at me if I dont get in, but after the two weeks the angiogenic cascade totally downregulates to normal. Be a little patient grasshopper.

I guess I want to know , when you say "at least"
if it were you
would you wait longer?
My laser doctor said two weeks is good.
I just don't want to end up a fat girl with a red face :)
