I have been getting hair removal laser done on my cheeks and neck. My results have been great.. i had no acne or pigmentation before i started my sessions. The problem is post 2 weeks of treatment my hair follicles start to fill up with white sebaceous filaments. I exfoliate and am strict with my skincare however once it nearing the growth time again i start getting those small fleshy bumps where the hair is. Also have notices slight pigmentation on my cheeks. Please help!

Answer: Clogged hair follicles post facial laser hair removal.
The center is offering you all they can. They should pay for you to see a board certified dermatologist. They may even have one that they work with. You should be starting treatment for a burn. I would not use neosporin, as some people are allergic to it and you don't...
This happens often and can be temporary. You can use hydrocortisone and should avoid the sun. For the next treatment you can consider some of the laser treatments which have a lower risk of hyperpigmentation
