What Causes Blistering On Skin After Laser Hair Removal?

I have light skin and dark hair - I have had laser hair removal (IPL) three times. The first 2 times it was just a very warm feeling, this last time it was very hot and felt like getting snapped by a rubberband. Within minutes my Upper lip and chin were very, very red, stinging and within 15 -20 minutes I have little blisters and dark brown strips on my chin and lip.. This happened 2 days ago. I have been applying aloe gel and neosporin cream. Do I need a doctor, am i going to scar, and what is the typical healing time?



Please help.
