Be Very Careful with IPL Lasers! - Scarborough, ON

Thanks for your response.

I agree she should not have a business because it is quite obvious she does not know what she is doing. Even after she had burned me the first time she kept going. I had to physically take her hand away from my stmach to make her stop.

I was hoping for tightening and she told me it would tighten the skin too. I knew I would have to go back for many sessions and was prepared to do so until I realized how badly she burned me.

I'm really hoping and wishing that the parts with no pigment return back to normal. I've been using a blend of vitamin E oil, vitamin e cream, and Bio Oil. I also have been taking a bunch of vitamins internally to help with the healing and it seems to be working somewhat. I will just have to wait and see. I do know that I will never get laser anything done, I'm way too scared and I don't trust anyone. This is unfortunate because I'm sure that with the right person, it would have turned out ok.

I'm more dissapointed than anything, I was really looking forward to getting these treatments done and the results that would follow.

Thanks fro our reply I really, really appreciate it. Even more so, because I really have no idea what to do.

Now the black marks are peeling. It seems as though the really bad one have peeled to reveal no pigment, I'm really freaking out now. Is this permanent? Will it ever go back to normal?

Also, is it to late to get the Biafine now, after the burns have already peeled and left a scar underneath?

I have been using Vitamin E Oil and cream mixed with Bio Oil. I don't know if this will help or not, in terms of the pigmentation problems I have or with the scar it Will GLycolic Acid help?

Yes, my skin was brned very badly. I've been trying to take care of it myself but each mark keeps peeling off one by one to reveal this whiteness underneath the black squares.

I was thinking I should go to a doctor as its been a week and a half and only getting worse.

Thanks for the advice KikiLisa, but where do I get that cream from? I have just moved to another city so I have no idea where everything is here.

She was not even a doctor, she was a laser technician. My skin is even worse than the picture! The skin has peeled off and it all white and bloody underneath. I wanted to take pictures but I have it all bandage up. Those are the places where she used the highest energy and I felt the most pain. I'm thinking those areas are going to leave a big scar, which is so unfortunate. My skin looked better before going to her. I'm just wondering once eveything heals if there will be any good results from the laser itself.

@Brit- I sent her an email and included the picture that is on here. She said she's sorry and what can she do. Sorry doesn't help anything, and she can help me by telling how I can get these marks to go away!

@KikiLisa- When I got home and saw these marks I was thinking the same thing! I would have died if these were on my face!

I will never go back for any lasers EVER again!
