Acne and hair removal

The laser hair removal doesn't typically cause acne. You may have gotten infected with staph aureus which is a superficial bacterial infection. You may need an oral antibiotic to rid this acne once and for all. I suggest you go to your dermatologist to have a culture done and treatment.

You may have an infected folliculitis on your face. Consult a dermatologist who will culture the pustules to determine which oral antibiotic would be appropriate for you.
