Can I have permanent redness from microneedling stretch marks? Not sure what to do.

bandclove3
I got stretch marks from having a baby last year. They weren’t bad, but I went to a professional for microneedling to see if it would make them go away. My third and so far last treatment was in November of 2018, it’s now March 2019 and I’m still red in the areas she did. I developed a rash in the areas she did about 2 weeks after the second treating. The rash itself went away but I was left with redness. The redness isn’t as bad but it’s still there. Why? What can I do? Permanent!?
