Asian 26 year old Just did my first BBL. Didn't feel anything during procedure.. no "rubber band "feeling as they discribed.. Face didn't turn red at all . and brown spots didn't get any darker afterward either. Now has been two days didn't see any difference than before.. feel like didn't had bbl.... Is it because they had wrong setting? Or they didn't do right setting for Asian skin type? Will anymore changes show later on..? Or I just had a failed bbl treatment...

Answer: No feeling during BBL Elv11, Thanks for the question. What you feel during the procedure is not necessarily indicative of your results, as we are all "wired" differently, and some of us feel more or less pain than others. Having Asian skin, your setting was likely a lower fluence than someone with lighter skin so as to avoid negative effects of the light on your skin, so you may have felt less during your treatment than some. I think that a single treatment is too soon to call BBL/IPL "failed" because it typically takes several treatments to see an effect.

Answer: Milo flaking in the next few days. If your freckles turn darker and starts to peel with the "milo like changes' than all is good. IF not the power- setting was not correct and no end point was reached. You will know within the next 2 days. All the best, Dr Davin Lim. Laser dermatologist, Brisbane. Australia.
