I am getting Halo & BBL in a few weeks- 1) I have some broken capillaries on my nose from a horrid facial- will these go away? 2) I also have some unwanted, reoccurring facial hairs that just appear periodically and a few from a mole on my face- will this treatment help these to stay away? 3) I had blepharoplasty eyelid surgery in March 2019- will there be an issue with the laser procedure?
