45yrs young with sun damage and some freckles. I was very impressed. My aesthetician Cherry at The Skin Center in Pittsburgh was fabulous. I took one look at her skin and said "I want your skin". She prescribed 4 chemical peels and 4 ipl treatments on alternating months.
I've had one of each so far. After the two treatments I've noticed a pretty big difference. Good-bye large pores, good-bye fine wrinkles hello even beautiful skin tone. This is worth it. I'm going to keep at it. I'm also a firm believer in retinae, three years.

Good staff, professional experience, desired results.
You certainly make a very good point. I once read a doctor's comment that said something along the lines of medical devices being like golf clubs in that anyone can buy one, but the skill level of the person using it is ultimately what makes the difference. I thought that was a great way to put it. Its easy to think anyone can work the machine...but as many of the reviews attest to, that doesn't seem to be the case.
Use the same technician. Look at their credentials along with the MD they are working for.
I, for one, have and will never have a bad experience. Proven results and will keep going back as needed. My skin has never looked better at 49!
Great to hear you are getting such good results!
I use Retin-A also. Do you have to stop taking it for a while before you get your peels or IPL done?
Thanks Gwychess, that makes sense. Otherwise I would think your skin would probably be too sensitive.
