I had fractional laser treatment 4-1/2 weeks ago. IPL work great. My face swelled, I could barely open my eyes. Blisters (Phtoo)

Will my 30-40 blister scars ever go away? What can I do? Also I have big brown and red patches all over my face, particularly around my mouth and under my chin. They look like bruises rather than brown spots rising to surface. I'm so concerned that my face is permanently scarred from this. sorry, photos are not in order. I have gone back to the company who treated my face. They've been very nice and are trying to resolve this with creams and previously with hydrocortisone for swelling.
