“IPL for Sun Damage / Pigmentation - Side Effects”

Not Sure
Spent: $440 in NSW

I have had two IPL treatments on my face for sun damage (pigmentation).

The first gave great results (I have pale skin and dark hair) but a few marks were left so I went back for a second treatment. The second has left me with what look like tram lines on my cheeks.

Will this fade or will I need further treatment to rectify it?
