V Beam and Glycolic Peel Timing Following Fraxel and IPL?

I've had Fraxel 6 months ago and IPL twice since then. Is it too soon to have VBeam? How long should one wait before having more procedures done. Also, it was suggested to have a glycolic peel immediately prior to having VBeam done. Your thoughts and answers would be appreciated.I don't want to chance damaging my skin more.

Very confused

Kat, I am not sure why you are having so many treatments?? Is this all to eliminate red and brown from your face? There are alot of unanswered questions in my mind. I am assuming you had Fraxel at low setting with only 2-3 day downtime for brown spots and not aggressive Fraxel where you would take 10 days to heal. the reason I say this is because if you had aggressive Fraxel you shouldn't need any IPL or Vbeam treatments because your face should look like a million... more
