I had laser hair removal yesterday on my upper lip, immediately after treatment it starting burning and the pain didn't go away for about 3 or 4 hours. I called the clinic back and they said to put aloe vera and ice. So I did and today when I woke up I have some dark spots or burns. Will they go away and how should I treat them? Should I continue to put the aloe vera?
