I had the Palomar Fraxel 1540 done exactly two weeks ago for hyperpigmentation. Photofacials have worked well for me, but I was assured this would be better. The pain was intense, but I expected that. What's upsetting, so upsetting, is that 2 weeks later, my face looks worse than before I started. It hasn't peeled, and the spots have just gotten darker; I've even gotten comments on it. Rather than having smoother skin, there are these fine little bumps - like milia - that turn into acne. I now have to wear makeup to even out my skin tone, and it's clogging my pores even more. I look aweful, and I'm sick about all the money I spent. I had gotten my skin looking halfway decent with the photofacials, and now this. Do you think it's too soon to tell? Is there anything that can be done to correct it?
