Thoughts on cross being done after subcision?

I recently got subcision and cross done at a local dermatologist rather than flying to Rullan, and my dermatologist did cross after performing the subcision. Wouldnt this lead to possible complications or even missing spots due to the swelling from subcision?

Unrelated, its been 3 days and one of my cross spots is still white. Is this something I should be worried about?

That's interesting. I hear what you're saying about common sense telling you that you might miss stuff after the subcision because you can't see because of the swelling, but I honestly don't know about this. Maybe it's fine to do them together. I'm not sure.

As far as one of your spots being white, temporary lightening is super common. But...I can't see your skin and am not a doc. I'd ask your doc for sure. This is important stuff, so make sure you stay your own advocate, and reach out to your doc as much as you need to, as questions, and get answers. Stay in the driver's seat for sure. Be nice of course, but stay solidly in the driver's seat.
