When I was having my laser session I saw swelling all over my body then it turned into bumps (full legs &arms). My doctor gave me medicine fucicort and E45 cream. He told me it should take up to 3 days but it has been almost 10 days and it is not getting better. It never happened to me before. P.S the doctor did not ask for any skin test before the laser session and I don't know if I can continue the sessions or not?
I got my first laser hair removal treatment under my chin and upper neck and the next day my chin and under my chin was severely swollen to the point where I could not look down and I was itching really bad. The nurses think I was having a severe allergic reaction to the histamine used. They prescribed some pills abs I have been taking them for 3 days but the swelling is slowly going away. Is this normal and how long will it take for the swelling to completely go away?
On Fri.3/11,I had laser hair removal at the MediSpa at my plastic surgeons office. Treatment given by nurse. Intense pain and swelling during and shortly after treatment. Called ps next day for silvadine cream. Saw nurse at office on sun.for eval. Given hydroquinine cream to use before add'l lasering. Many areas have blistered and peeled. Intense pain and discomfort. I am scared to have add'l laser treatments down there. Will these scars be permanent? This can't be a normal reaction? HELP?!!
I was given laser session again after 2 days because hair on my upper lip was not removed.I have thick and hard growth on my upperlip. I still can see hair burnt and beneath my skin.My skin is red and swollen.I can see abscess and transparent fluid is also coming out.Shall I contact my doctor or is it normal to have such symptoms after laser.
I was bad for first treatment but no blisters, only redness with bumps, swelling and itchiness of the legs. This time I have all of the above plus blisters, and his time my Brazilian is itchy and swollen too. It's just horrible.
Had a few sessions of laser hair removal for my lower legs and underarms for the last half year. Although it worked well for my underarms, my legs are normally left with red swollen spots for a week after each session, and I am advised to apply steroid cream for the next 3 days. The swelling and itching will subside eventually but my legs look bruised and has dark spots even after applying liposomal serum for 2 whole months. What can I do to treat the dark spots?
