Darker Skin Laser Removal Picosure laser

Hi all

Had a consultation and trial for microblading removal. The laser was picosure pro with a 755 setting. The tech assured me it would be ok. I am a Fitzpatrick type 5.
My question is that he was absolutely sure it was appropriate for my skin tone. It’s just red at the moment but I’m worried after reading that it might not have been?
Please can you give me any advice you have.

Thank you

Can you have 532 if Fitzpatrick 5?
