I'm a 26 year old male this year. I've not had acne breakout for several years already. I recently went for Infini RF Microneedling for acne scars, and developed some little red bumps, white small zits and even "pimples" on my face on the 2nd day of recovery. Is this normal? The doctor did gave me TDF recovery cream and Fobancort cream. Should I do anything to ensure it doesn't spread, and how do I stop these "pimples" from appearing after these acne scars treatments? Thank you.
