Treatment was 5 days ago, 3 treatments the same day. IPL, radio frequency, Nanofractional IF. 1st day my face was ok, started using aquaphor and motrin, 2nd day started swelling, 3rd day was scarry swollen and very red. I was prescribed Methylprednisolone.Day 4 I started noticing brown spots, tiny scabs, and my under skin scratched. Today is day 5 and face feels very dry and still red, specially underneath my skin. I am not sure is this is worth it... any advice on creams or serums to use after day 5?

Sending you best wishes for recovery. I've been down the same road (different device) and I'm still living with the effects 5 years later. Look into biofane, it may help you. Keep us posted on your recovery. Many people end up with full recovery and lovely results :) seems like you are prob on target with the treatment you had done.
