Redondo Beach IPL Doctors and Reviews

“IPL Photo Facial: Wow - Sunset Beach, CA”

I decided to have IPL done to improve the Melasma and patches I had on my forehead, cheeks, chin and nose. I was informed that IPL isn't the "best" laser for this condition and it could actually cause it to become worse. Melasma doesn't like heat, so it could flair up with the laser. I decided to do it anyway because years ago I had 1 treatment and it did improve the area I... 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

“Happy with my IPLs, Going Back 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 for Sun Spots”

I am a light-skinned Asian female. I had very nice experience with my IPL provider. After inital consultation, she understood my concerns of the long-term, permanent side effects from IPL gone-wrong. She gave me 2 times of "test spot" with 7 day of interval. I just had my first IPL done yesterday. Thanks to 2 test spots, my provider would be able to find the right settings for me... 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

“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
