Had first 2 BBL treatments approx. 5 weeks apart. 1st treatment yielded some "peppering" and lightening of a very dark spot on my forehead. 2nd treatment did not yield any peppering. Age spots and pigmentation on forehead remained unchanged. 3rd treatment today; practitioner was more aggressive given the minimal change from the 2nd treatment. Forehead tolerated treatment well, still minimal peppering. Cheeks experienced quite a lot of bruising. Need to understand why and how to heal quickly.
