Can Electrolysis Cause Permanent Wrinkles?

I had an electrolysis treatment on my upper lip area, last April which caused deep scabbing. The scabbing was followed by red dots, and by the end of the summer, I was left with dark dots that looked like a mustache.

Also, within a two week time frame, in the fourth month after the treatment, I got these weird-looking wrinkles in the area the treatment was done where the pigmentation is.They look like grooves and ridges in an almost plaid design at the corners of my mouth and lines. How does electrolysis cause wrinkles and are they permanent?
