Should my skin still have dark spots two months after treatment with liquid nitrogen? (Photo)

edrcsmith
I had 141 age spots treated with liquid nitrogen. But now the brown spots are bigger and darker than ever, some with a little pink spot in the center. My dermatologist said they will fade and I should exfoliate often but I look horrible. I was expecting nice pink skin after the crusting came off. How long will it take to get the nice new skin. I am being super careful with sun screen and clothing protection.
