I felt pain while she was doing the IPL but it wasn't unbearable so she kept doing it, right after the IPL she did RF i had some bruising right after she finished with the RF ,three days after i had blisters in some areas.I feel completely horrible, Im scared to death this is going to leave discoloration and scarring. I've been communicating with the person who did my treatment and she says its going to get better with time so basically just wait.I'd like a second opinion just to ease my mind.
