I just had the Fractora RF treatment done.It hurt way more than I expected it to.The technician told me what to except but when she gave me a mirror, I almost cried.I looked like what people I’ve seen look like after the vampire treatment.

I will call her tomorrow but I wanted a second opinion, if looking scary as hell is normal?
