I suggest more laser hair removal treatments to ensure there are no remaining hairs.  Pores will remain.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thanks for your query. You seem to have sensitive skin. Hyperpigmentation is common after laser hair removal. If there is no redness on the legs you can apply kojic cream twice daily. This will take care of your pigmentation.All The Best

This is likely a burn that ice, topical steroids and moisturizing will help. I suggest seeing an expert.  Best, Dr. Emer.
