How can I soothe redness and blisters after microdermabrasion on my face? (Photos)

Asked By:nicca76 in Los Angeles, California

I use trentonin. I just switched to curology; .035 tretinon, 5% Azelaic acid, 4% niacinamide. My skin was looking good (for me). I made an appt for a hydra facial this morning and stopped using actives for 3 nights. She said I had a lot of dead skin and did a microdermabrasion and pumpkin enzyme peel. My face is so red and splotchy and I think I’m getting blisters. Aquaphor is only thing that doesn’t hurt. Will silver healing serum help? Is this normal? What can I do to bring down the red inflamed skin?
