4 years ago I underwent a Pearl Laser treatment.The aesthetic doctor advised it was the best treatment for me. I expressed concerns regarding waxy bumps on my face which she could not diagnose,but said that the Pearl Laser would clear the condition. After a very expensive procedure,my pores are flattened and appear larger.Since then the bumps have been diagnosed as sebaceous hyperplasia. Pls can you advise on treatments that would help for both sebaceous hyperplasia and the condition of my skin.
