Only time will tell
From the pictures of your leg it seems that you had an intense reaction to the treatment. Few possible reasons to that type of reaction. If you were exposed to sunlight, tanning beds or any treatment that increases the pigment of your skin the reaction to the IPL treatment is more intense and can cause burns. Another possibility is that the intensity ,duration or the energy delivered during the treatment was to high for your skin type and created a severe reaction and a burn.
