Redness after eyebrows tattooed removal, is this normal? (photos)

zu.phan
I recently had eyebrows tattooed removal with medlite laser, and I'm very worried because after the first treatment I got today, the treated area turned very red and swollen. Is it normal for it to be this red after the first treatment? The lady said it'll take me about 6-8 treatments to remove my eyebrow tattoo. I also worry about scarring. Should I continue to get more treatments? Please help, thank you.
