I had an IPL treatment at "high rated" medspa. During procedure, physician didn't test and went ahead did my left face & chin. I told her it was really painful. She lower level for the rest of my face. However, my chin was on fire the rest of the day and couldn't sleep without ice pack on. Now my chin is red, darken up, blistering and has come liquid. I contacted medspa, they said it's normal n want to apply plasma for me .*Is plasma going to help and right thing to do?Will it leave me scar?
