Asked By:AmazingUpgrade in Brisbane, AU

Hi there, I've had limelight used on my face to great success but this is my chest one day post treatment. My treating nurse says it ok and will heal but I am unsure- do these look like burns and if so how likely are they to heal? I'm terrified after reading horror stories.
