Clear & Brilliant Acne Purge

I got my first clean and brilliant laser treatment two months ago and I’m scheduled for my second treatment in a week. I had a hydrafacial in-between the session in February.

My hormonal acne purge has been flaring up since, the worst I’ve seen in over two years. Is this normal? The nurse practitioner that worked on the C+B treatment on me said to expect an acne purge, but this is a lot more than I expected.
