I had INFINI done 6 days ago. 2 days after treatment i developed several whiteheads and pimples. The swelling is gone but the redness is still present, almost like a bruise, and feels like im developing more pimples. is this the normal course? the PA told me to just put warm compress and whiteheads should resolve. Is this correct?
