It has been one year since my first ipl. My life is changed from this procedure. I've completly lost all the fat from my face, my acne is out of control. My skin is dead. I look 20-30 years older. I know of one lady that has healed from this procedure. If any one wants to know more please send me a message.

I too have spent over a thousand dollars with Derma Health Laser & Skin Care Clinic. I received dysport injections and derma filler in my noise.
Neither one was effective, in fact the derma filler in my nose ruined the appearance of my nose. After paying Derma Health to straighten my nose they instead left my nose with big bumps on each side where the derma filler fell out of place.
I made five trips to Springfield to resolve these problems and received a complete run around and the owner Cheryl Briggs even suggested I had financial issues, which is complete BS especially with the fact I received the max. amount of dysport.
Then Cheryl completely changed her reasoning and said my body must of metabolized it and they offer no guarantees.

Its been almost 5 months since I had my first ipl treatment. I just want everyone to know there is hope, because I am starting to get the fullness in my cheeks back. Also my orange peel skin is not as rough as it was. I've kept my skin hydrated with a feather weight antixidant moisturizer (the laser treatment business's name brand). I use a light cream because I am acne prone. I've used DE LA CRUZ sulfur ointment on blemishes and my skin has cleared amazingly. Also keeping a diet with mostly fruit, and limiting your caffine intake will help. I would never has laser treatments again, but there is hope to recovery from the laser damage.

I am sooo happy to hear that you are improving!!! I guess you had problems with the laser genesis since it was the last one you used?

No, I believe it was from IPL. The damage is not right away, it takes a couple of months.

I am hopeful that I will look better soon. I am still very imbarrassed when I am in public. If I could, I would hide indoors. I wake up and see improvement everyday. I am praying for healing, and believe I recieved it.

Hi sjane333 and Bowman929
That's so great to hear please keep me updated. It's probably going to be a day at a time, but I'm sure you two will look amazing, when everything is all said and done. I'm glad you found others dealing with the same thing to be able to lean on for support. Stay positive! :)

I am not using harsh wrinkle creams or retin A. My skin is too sensitive. I am using Ambrosia skin & scar nectar from Eagle Peak Herbals. De la Cruz'a sulfur cream for pimples. I am only eating fruit and fresh veggies. I had to cut out all caffine and alcohol.
I heard some people say that it took a year to start to recover. Does anyone know how long it will take?
Please pray for my healing as I will yours. God Bless.
