Why am I having pimple breakout after full body laser? (Photo)

June 18, 2018
Asked By:Blaze1984 in Richmond, Virginia

I am a male 34 years. I started having monthly full body laser hair removal 4 months ago. I am noticing I have pimple breakout all over my body after each laser session and is getting worse. Doctor instructed to us Elica cream after laser treatment but still. I see mixed colored pimples white and red. The worst are on my legs and thighs (see photo). I’m also using AHA 20% body lotion with little improvement.
