Hi jjmum, I'm on the same treatment as you, have just had the 3rd of 4 treatments. I too got spots after the first treatment but you might be pleased to know that it didn't happen with the second treatment, and just a little with the third. In fact, strangely, I think my skin seems to be looking generally quite good, everyone said how dry it would get but I haven't noticed.

Good luck with the rest of the treatments.
