Asked By:Terese86

Hi there, I recently had laser hair removal on my lower legs. It left me burnt and blistered, I've also had to go on antibiotics via iv for, 5 days to kill an infection that it developed (cellulitis). It was the second treatment, the first one hurt but left no marks. This time round it was really painful. Will I be permanently scared? It was almost 3 weeks ago.
