Why Does my Skin Become Bright Red when I Move It?

Tags: redness, brown spots, bumpy, causes, wound
Two months ago I decided to get laser treatment on a red patch of skin from a wound that came from a brown spot I tried to remove myself.
My skin has been healing since then: it went from red to a slightly darker skin tone. I saw a dermatologist a month ago and he told me it takes about 3 to 6 months for a skin trauma to heal, so he said the best was to wait.
Also, the skin is still kind of bumpy and it becomes bright red if I move it, so I was wondering if this was still part of the process.
