IPL Brown Spots Darker but Not Flaking?

NDgirl
I had bbl one week ago. My first one made brown spots turn dark brown like coffee grounds and fell off. This past one turned the spots light brown/tan and show no sign of flaking/crusting, but are still darker than prior to trtmt. Will they will still fade?? I'm so scared I will be left with more brown!!!
