I have lots of little red dots and my skin is still irritated about a week after my first session. They look a little bit like in-grown hairs but also somewhat like post-laser erythema based on images. Wondering if I should ask the tech to do a lower power setting at my next appointment or what. My skin is also a bit sensitive and shaving is more painful and does not seem to do as much. I have dark hair and lighter skin.

    Take it easy on the shaving, you're basically shaving a sunburn. Not good. Put on some aloe or talk to a derm for a more extensive treatment like a steroid
