I had Fractora performed on my face three days ago. Couple of hours after the procedure, some of the areas puffed up. It had yellowish fluid flowing out which dried up and formed yellow crusts. Some of the area also blistered. On the next day the blisters are still there and my whole face swelled up. Today, the second day after the procedure, I have lines of pin holes and scabs on my face. Is this normal? Will it leave any pigmented scars? Anyone had anything similar?
