Can having Halo and BBL lasers have side effects of stomach cramping and vomiting?

December 5, 2014
Asked By:StotheW in TX

I was treated today with the Halo on face (highest setting) and BBL on neck, chest and shoulders. My face is still hurting and really swollen but my question is I've been vomiting and have horrible stomach cramps. It started about 3 hours afterwards. Can this be caused from the lasers? It's a Friday so I didn't want to bother anyone after hours.
