I'm freaking out now because my face is filled with brown spot like rough texture which looks like coffee grinds and my face is swollen. Is that normal. Will these coffee grinds supposed to be there? Will they go away. There is no way I can walk out of my house in public and I thought there was I down time with Halo treatment so I'm confused and hoping it's not bad reaction or anything.

Answer: Halo Recovery Hello and thanks for your question. The rough brown spots and swelling after your Halo treatment are very normal and you shouldn't be worried about them. The brown speckles will start to flake off on day 4-5. The swelling will also go down as the days pass. Here at Refined Dermatology we typically like to do these treatments when patients have a few days to take off work/school/social life so they can stay home. Again, what you are experiencing are normal side effects of having a Halo treatment. Regards, Dr. S.

Answer: Halo - Don't worry We instruct our patients in our practice, that swelling may occur depending on how aggressively they are treated. The skin treated will dry up, creating patches of rough areas. The process will appear to darken and sloughing will occur. The result will be healthy glowing skin.
