Q-Yag for Brown Spots Caused Permanent Redness on my Cheeks

About 6 months ago I had 2 Q-Yag Laser treatments for brown spots on my cheeks. One treatment at 560 and the other at 1040. Left me sightly red. Had two V-Star(supposedly same as V-Beam) laser treatments after that. One at a lighter dose and the other at a brusing dose. My cheeks are now permanently red. I've had three jessners Peels since then and the redness/brown spots are barely fading away in certain spots. Did I develop Purpura?? Is the best solution just doing chemical peels??
