Laser hair removal problems
- need help

I went for laser hair removal for my upper lip. The machine was a 'cool glide'. I was told that it is safe on people with dark skin.

After my third treatment my face started to heat up and was sweaty for a few nights. After about a week of this, my face suddenly had dark patches on my forehead, my side burns, dark circles under my eyes and dark portion like a 'goatee' along the sides of my chin and under my chin.

I have been so depressed about this.

I have been using Retin A and vitamin c. The biopsy showed that I have dermal hyper-pigmentation. Any treatment available for this?...

I want to sue the clinic but want to know more about what could have happened to me and why... what went wrong?

Someone suggested that the melanin in my hair heated up. Any validy to that?

I would be so grateful for any help to get my face back.

thank you

Hi,

I feel for you.
Here is what you need. A tri-combo ointment or cream containing a steroid, hydroquinone and retinoin. Comes by the prescription name of Triluma.
Ask a doctor for a prescription.
You cannot use it if pregnant.
Needs night time application and day time sunblock.

All the best!
