BBL Beware :(

I am one month post my 3rd BBL laser treatment. Performed by someone doing these for 10+ years whom I fully trusted. She works at same facility where I’ve occasionally had fillers done and they do wonderful work. The treatment seemed to go well, granted very painful and a super amount of swelling for a few days, but no scarring at anytime.
That was the good news. In the last week I’m starting to see my cheek hallows appear- hallow.. which I have never seen before. I’ve actually gained a small amount of weight and nothing else has changed in my life so it’s all I can attribute this to. I see shadows beginning to form beneath my cheekbones and a “sunked in” appearance. Not good. The main reason I did this was to improve redness. I’ve noticed maybe a 10-15% improvement in color (I don’t have brown spots or other sun damage). I am just super concerned and already am scheduling an appointment to talk about filler in this area. I already paid for 4 BBL treatments but I’ll sacrifice the money and pass on the 4th.
Just want others to realIze the risk. My clinician said she hasn’t seen fat loss in others. I hate to question her truth but after reading the amount of other complaints on this site, I suspect there may be more to share about that topic than she did. I hate to fully steer anyone away but if you are even slightly on the thin side and can’t afford any fat loss in your fat, in that case, I would suggest don’t take the risk if there’s any other option to help you. Lasers of any type I’m learning can most definitely cause fat loss :(
