I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist for after care. I recommend Silagen + Bioshield to promote healing. Keep in mind, it will take a series of treatments with laser hair removal. Best, Dr. Emer
Thanks for your question. Blistering can happen if you were burned during the LHR, but they would only be in the treated area. Typically, the marks would be round or square in the shape of the handpiece. Alternatively, this looks like an HSV outbreak that may have been triggered by the LHR treatment. If that is the case, you should probably take acyclovir prophylactically prior to your next treatment. It also works well post breakout to sooth the symptoms. Best of luck.
it is hard to tell from the picture. if the blister is where the lasering was done, it is possible that the same area was lnadvertantly lasered more than once and you have a small burn blister. this will go away in a few days. you can apply a topical antibiotic cream a few times per day.As Dr. Riehm suggested below, if it is a small blister, often with clear fluid, especially if it was on a spot that was not lasered, it may be a HSV blister adn acyclovir may speed up its resolution. also this means you should start antivirals a day before your future laser sessions. david berman md
