More Breakouts Normal After Photofacial?
I had two Photofacials for 2 1/2 weeks apart. I was told it can help with current acne, acne scars, and sun spots. So far, I haven't seen any improvements. Also, I have noticed that my skin is breaking out more; is that normal? I have three more sessions left. Should I continue with the treatment? I don't want my skin to get worse though. Please help me.

Photofacials for acne
Photofacials like any treatment, can initially make acne worse. That said, you should be on topical and possible oral therapy for your acne depending if it is hormonally based or if it affects your trunk as well as your face. Chemical peels might be a better option for you. In any case, you should definitely speak with a dermatologist before proceeding, especially with such an expensive treatment.
