I had a lot of sun damage from years in the sun...

26 Apr 2012

I had a lot of sun damage from years in the sun plus a 2 year tour to Hawaii. I had been told that IPL would have AMAZING results on my skin. I had kind of. Amass. It almost looked like I had blush on all the time. During the summer, my complexion was kind of "lacey". I had my treatment in November '11. It wasn't painful, but it wasn't relaxing either. A square hand piece is placed all over the areas needing help and there is a sort of zap. What happens next is the dark spots turn much darker, then they scab a bit and come off. It sounds pretty straight forward, but I was embarrassed by the way my face looked and didn't always go out. It took about 7-8 days. It didn't hurt. It really did look like coffee grounds on skin. Beautiful skin was revealed and It really was a huge difference for me and well worth the money and the process. I hope it helps you, too.

Great review?
