Damage Done by Vbeam. Any Way To Correct This?

I have had two vbeam treatment done the first in feb. and the second in march. I am only 23 years old and it has left my skin with a crepey thin leathery like texture. I have large pores (where I had none before), lines covering my face ie. mostly on cheeks and forehead and now my skin is no longer able to hold moisture. My skin is so dehydrated I look like I have aged 10+ years. I have spent a fortune on skin care products with no hope in sight. Is there anything I can do to correct this?
