    Default Visine

    Had a little red razor burn on my chin (where I got to aggressive on the first pass) A friend who is a pharmicist noticed and told me to put Visine on it to "take the red out"...worked like a charm...five minutes later you could see no red at all.

    Visine is a vasoconstrictor -- it reduces the size of capillaries, making them harder to see.

    Any plastic surgery clinic, but I'm also fairly sure that cosmeticians do it as well. You should shop around and here are some tips (did some research as I was considering doing the same for a surgical scar on my face):
    1) Meet up with a plastic surgeon and discuss it with him. If he pushes for laser or other treatments, ask him if microderm will also do the trick.
    2) Ask him what he offers when it comes to this treatment compared to the same treatment at cosmetician (if he uses different gear or abrasive powders)
    3) Ask him how many treatments it would take and what would be the price per treatment.
    4) After that you can also visit a few cosmeticians and see what they have to offer, but if the plastic surgeon offered a comparable quote compared to the cosmeticians, I'd go to him as he has more expertise and he took the trouble to explain all of this stuff to you.
