3 weeks ago I had my first session of vbeam. There were no complications. I get the occasional pimple so was prescribed 1% clindamycin to put on affected areas. I have been using it for a couple of days and now my face is patchy, bright red, dryish, hot, stings when I use skincare products which are otherwise gentle and have broken out all over my face!
