What Can I Do To Prevent Damage From Acne Scars?

Today I had a laser session for my acne scars. I now have several small blisters all over my face. One is clear and watery, the others are dark and not as raised. Should I be worried? I am of Indian-origin so my skin is darker. What can I do to prevent permanent damage?
