I went in for a levulan treatment 6 months ago. The put the kerastik on my face in the evening. And told me to come back in the morning for the activation. When I got there they said it had already started to activate, so the laser would be too painful. They then brought me to the top of the parking garage and had me face the sun to let it activate. It burned so bad I could hardly stand it. I lasted only 2 minutes. I had to take a week off work while my face burned and peeled. Since then, my acne has only gotten worse. Now I have huge cystic acne all over. I have been to 2 dermatologist since. 1 recommends accutane, the other recommends antibiotics and creams.. They both say that activating by the sun is crazy! But the place where I got it done insists that it is a proper way to activate. Has anyone heard of this?? Please help.
