have just had my ipl yearly top up, i have a few pink areas & very light, hardly visable broken capillaries that seam to have almost gone, i had to attend an event later that evening on the same day i had ipl, my face reacts pretty well to ipl now and i dont really suffer any down time, a little makeup hid any evidence i had ipl a few hours before, but i drank a fair amount of alcohol that night, it didn't cause my face to flush, but i am worried i may have affected the results.
