How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

In the end it wasn’t as aggressive as I needed. While my skin looked nice it didn’t do anything for scars or discoloration
Pros - makes skin feel good
Cons - didn’t see results I wanted

I bought this because I want to even my pigment...
I bought this because I want to even my pigment and maybe fade a few light acne scars. I read the dangers of doing IPL WITH DARK SKIN and didn't really see any reviews showing how it works on darker skin (I am IV-V) on this site. The research I found mentioned that lowering the settings was vital for darker skin. I was very comfortable whwn I was told that due to my dark skin I would be at a lower setting and that due to the lower setting I wouldn't really see any results until after my third session. More importantly she said that darker skin wouldn't have as dramatic effects as pale skin either. This helped me adjust my expectations for the effectiveness of IPL on dark skin. Since I paid $170 for three sessions with groupon I won't be gutted if the results are far less than I want.
She was really good at making sure I the laser was not too hot on my skin and when I left my skin wasn't red and I felt just fine. I see on here that the burns don't show up immediately so I will update this in two weeks to show how my skin looks. I need to take my first after pics but here are some before (although I don't think the lighting is good for showing the discoloration)
