Right after my 1st-ever Genesis treatment I had 2 darkish welts and swelling in a couple of areas. I've never been allergic to anything but over the next 2 days I developed ~100 small hard bumps, not pimples. See pics. By then it was Friday, so I have to wait until tomorrow (Mon) to see a doctor. I've been putting neosporin on the welts (almost like scabs) and cortisone on the rest. I’ll try to see a dermatologist tomorrow, but I doubt I can get in to see someone right away. Please help!
