Subcision and Fotona Laser Gave Me Red Marks
NeedHelpPls12345July 28, 2022
It’s been 9 days and my face has developed red marks after the crusts peeled. My face hasn’t improved since day 5.
The doctor says it will eventually go away but my left cheek and nose has stayed the same. My right cheek also has marks but not as pronounced.

Still suffering from this nightmare

Derm did a vascular laser two weeks post my treatment but no improvement with regards to the marks.
I'm at a loss on what to do. I keep being told that this will eventually fade but I don't see any improvement at all as the days go by. The marks are turning more purple and red.

Possible burns?

No improvement after 7 days post vascular laser.
Derm said it's vascular but now I'm dubious. I feel I might have been burnt.
My scars also look more apparent after the subcision. I think the procedure just made everything worse and I wish things would go back to the way it was prior.

How are you now? I hope your skin has improved and finally that those aren´t burns, but burns can happen sometimes too. It happened to me, sadly (I had CO2 laser) that gave me scars and to other people, with different kind of lasers and energy machines. I hope you feel ok, send you hugs.

Thanks for asking - it's improved a tiny bit about 10 days after vascular laser but they are still very obvious and need to be covered up with makeup and concealer to look normal. I had a VISIA test done by a nurse and it showed that I have massive inflammation and will need to wait another month for it to calm down. She also said I got hyperpigmentation and post laser erythema which will take more sessions of vascular laser to resolve. I go back to the derm for another round next week.

Hi, I know this is a late post... I just got did laser treatment with fotona and my skin also has the red marks. I was wondering if yours got better with time? I'm so scared now
