I had laser 3 weeks ago for rosacea and it did help some, but now my face is starting to burn and more red than before i had it done. It feels like a bad sunburn. Any ideas of what it could be? Is this normal?

Before jumping the gun, I would speak to a dedicated laser specialist about the causes of the premature hair growth. Our office specializes in hair removal and we take a more conservative approach. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
You may be an excellent candidate for daily sunscreen, light chemical peels, and IPL photofacials. In our office, we use the Limelight IPL with excellent results. Parental consent is required under age 18.Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
Thank you for your question. Wait 72 hours, and then go in for a follow up visit. Perhaps they were just a bit conservative with the treatmennt. They just may need to retreat you if there is no response. I hope this helps!
