Glendale IPL Doctors and Reviews

“Very Pleased with Results - Long...”

Completed 3 IPL treatments and am very pleased with the results achieved. The first session is a shock to the system, but the following sessions were much less intense feeling. Results from the first session were noticeable by the third week and the following sessions have further enhanced skin tone and texture. My goal was to eliminate the brown splotches that come with age and IPL works. It... more

“Loved it! - Manhattan Beach, CA”

I have always had a reddish skin tone (I'm a fair-skinned Irish woman) with acne prone skin. I had this done maybe 3 or 4 times over a 2 year period and loved it. I found that while it did hurt a bit, it wasn't bad at all....plus, my pores appeared smaller and the ruddiness was almost completely gone. I have been asked for years if I have a sunburn, which I did not. I had... more

“Dr D is Great with Lasers - Los...”

I have had multiple laser treatments with Dr D for my sun damaged neck and chest. My skin was so red and wrinkley but now it looks amazing. Dr D is an expert with lasers! He also suggested a great skincare and sunscreen regimen to go along with the laser treatments so that my skin continues to look good. more

“IPL Photofacial is Fantastic! - Long...”

I've had 7 IPL photofacials in the past 5 years and I couldn't be happier with the results. My first experiences were pretty typical of those described elsewhere on this site. My 4th experience was traumatic. I had so much melasma from my pregnancies, that the laser lifted up TONS of pigment, in a scary stripey pattern. YIKES! After that lifted off about a week later, I had stripes... more

“NO IPL! - Try Hydroquinone for...”

My twin sister and I are turning thirty this year. We have struggled for years with very ruddy skin, including red and brown 'sun' spots. I attribute our uneven skin tone to running around without a drop of sunscreen though the better part of our childhoods. Anyone with truly ruddy skin knows how embarassing it is to always have your skin look dirty, no matter how much you cleanse.... more

“Happy Patient - Santa Monica, CA”

Years of accumulated dark sunspots. Not only did the IPL remove the sunspot, it smoothed my skin and shrunk the pores. more

“NOT Worth It - Beverly Hills, CA”

Pros: FIRST SESSION did seem to lighten some of the brown spots and sun damaged areas of my skin. i was encouraged. they said this process of lightening would continue as the "laser brought the pigment to the surface and it was exfoliated or flaked off" they recommended using sunscreen, which i did use but mostly i stayed entirely out of the sun. CONS: SESSIONS 2-4 (over a... more

“IPL Burn 9 Months Ago and Still Dark...”

Hi, I had an IPL done 9 months ago and was burnt. it created an irregular pigmentation on my skin that I still can't get rid of after 9 months. It almost looks greyish compared to my yellowish tone skin that wasn't affected. I read more stories on here about how it's not even suitable for dark skin and I have grade IV skin (mexican).I've been doing peels, glycolic and salicylic to get rid of... more

“IPL Time Consuming”

I did a series of IPL treatments a few years ago. While the short term effects were great, as in ... my skin looked younger and firmer for about a month, and my brown spots/freckles were reduced, these effects were not lasting. They were able to reduce the amount of red veins, however, and they have stayed away. more

“IPL Scarring”

I had IPL done in Feb. of this year at {edited - doctor information appears above the review for registered users} in Newport Beach. Everyone including the manager did not explain the risk of the procedure but had me sign forms explaining complications and walked away without talking to me about it. I was sold that IPL was non invasive, risk free, and has no downtime unlike co2 laser. I had 1... more

“Loved & Stunned by the Result!”

I am Asian, had fair skin, probably slightly above average skin before the procedure. I'm approaching 30, wanted to start taking very good care of my skin. I had some light freckles around my eyes, and my skin tone looked a little dull. My dermatologist told me IPL could get rid of the freckles and stimulate collagen production. I was quite nervous during the procedure because my eyes were... more

“After 6 Treatments It Was a Bust”

With new technology like thermage I wouldn't be surprised if I'm the last one to ever purchase IPL treatments. After looking over incredible b4's and after shots, I was convinced to purchase a series of IPL sessions for $2K (which is a ton of money for me). I got IPL for fine lines and Rosacea-like condition on my cheeks. Each session hurt A LOT. Nothing close to their warning... more
