“Burning and Painfull After IPL for Hair Removal Underarms and on Legs”

Thanks for your reply, i really wish i had gone to a proper clinic now. Since my post on the 11th march on the 13th i went on holiday for a week. (Not a sun holiday) the pain under my arms did not seem to get any better, infact they felt like they wer getting worse.I was smothering them in sudacrem morning and night and was really uncomfortable and sore to wear long sleeved tops and coats as they would rub. They then started to sting and the skin was splitting open but the skin under was red raw and very painfull. I tried to cover with plasters but nothing helped 1 week later and skin is now healing nicely and staring to feel normal, but i have discovered really painfull lumps under the skin now which feel like boyle like lumps but not really visible to see only to feel. Is this like a normal reaction for the a type of recovery or should i go to the doctors?? thank you!

Hi Amanda - To me it sound that you have been burnt by the procedure and you have blister - I would go to your local medical adviser to have the area checked and ensure that no infection is occurring. Plus they will be able to advise you on what you can do to reduce the pain, infection and scaring - Good Luck and please find a better salon for any further procedures.
