I had Picoway Resolve Facial Rejuvination done 5 weeks ago. Two tyoes of wavelength were used. The 1064nm to target the darker pigmentation in my sun spots and. The 532nm was used on my entire face was told this would target the more faint sun spots and "rejuvinate" my skin. The darker ones did scab and fell off but the "faint" ones seem to be surfacing and becoming darker. Is this normal? Will these just turn darker and not fall off or disappear?
