Hi, i am skin type 3 and have had about 10 total IPLs with good results, and redness always subsided after 1 hour. I recently started seeing someone new who told me welts are normal but i never had them with the last practitioner. Should I be concerned? The welt is just below the tear trough area and looks similar to raised 1st degree burn. It burns still 24 hours later. Like i said, the practitioner said it is normal but I am seeking additional recommendations since I am in mild pain. Thanks!
