I’m of Indian descent. I’m having electro on shoulders and back and notice I’m getting very bumpy and have pigmentation in the skin after. Even spots will leave my skin pigmented.
On the face where I had it done it’s fine I don’t get pigmented.
Anything on the back I can use to calm the bumps down?
What products are you using for aftercare? Pigmentation is not avoidable completely but can be reduced with insulated probes. Your pigmentation will fade 6 months to a year after you finish treatments in the area. As for bumps, how large, what color and how persistent are they?
Post inflammatory pigmentation is a normal thing to see after receiving an electrolysis treatment.
Take a look at this educational video : https://youtu.be/XdCc7C4jNCE
I use just aloe Vera gel.
The bumps vary some can be very large others are small. They are always red and leave marks.
I’ve had 4 sessions of laser so hair is a bit thin now. Now I’m doing electro to finish off
What type of Electrolysis are you having ? Have you spoken to your practitioner?
Can you submit QUALITY pictures of the bumpy areas?
sorry I didn’t take any pics, and to late to show now, as they have all calmed down. took about 3 weeks to clam down. left me with some minor pigmentation marks, but I understand this is to be expected with my skin tone.
I totally trust my electrolgist shes experienced and a nice person to.
looking to do a marathon run on my back hopefully this month.
Yes, bumps DO go away. Don’t fret. Wasted energy.
