Consider:
The bench looked good after painted. No
The bench looked good after it was painted. Yes
The bench looked good after being painted. Yes
The past participle alone (here, painted) cannot complement after.
But it can complement when and once:
The bench looked good once painted. Yes
The bench looked good when painted. Yes
