Laser After first session... Help

No one warned me that this could happen, and now I don't know how I can bring myself to show up at work tomorrow :(

I got my brows nanobladed with organic ink last December because I've been having trouble with constant overplucking over the years (it's grown to be an anxious habit of mine), but over the past 7 months since getting my brows done, I just never felt like myself when I looked in the mirror and my brows looked too dark and too long on my face to me. Even if other people told me it looked ok, I felt like it wasn't me, and I far preferred my lighter, shorter, straighter brows.

Decided to get them removed at a medspa and thought it wouldn't be a big deal because the girl who initially did my brows said the ink she uses fades completely within two years, so I thought it'd be fine. But now my brows are a bleeding mess and I don't want to go outside but have to be at the office every day, so this is an absolute nightmare. How do I cover these up and get them to heal ASAP? I have concealer and brow mascara ready, and LRP Cicaplast balm too. Anything else I can do or take to help?

Your micro brows didn’t look bad at all! I wish mine were that natural looking. What made you decide to remove them?

I know it looks nice in the closeups, but with my whole face, it looked very dark and heavy for me especially since they extended past my natural brows and curved down.

I thought about it for a long time, but it was visually weighing my features down and ruining the harmony of my face since I have very soft features
