Allergic Reaction from Hydrafacial?

Brave24932
I have been getting Hydrafacials from the same provider every 2 months for over two years. This time, I think I had what looks like an allergic reaction and I have no idea why. Has anyone else had this happen to them? My results have been amazing other than this one time.

Did you use sunscreen afterwards? This looks really similar to the reaction I have to chemical sunscreen! Sometimes you can have a reaction to just the chemicals in the sunscreen or you can have a “photo reaction” that’s caused by the chemicals reacting to the sun and irritating your face! It can be really hard to pinpoint where the issue is coming from due to the delay (only reacts after sun exposure vs immediately after applying)

Hi I think I’m having the same reaction a week after the facial. Did yours ever go away and if so, how long did it take?
